(Version française plus bas)

Yesterday I had the best day ever since our arrival in Ho Chi Minh City- except for our day trip to the Mekong river basin, of course! The day didn’t started so well since I had a job interview for a French teacher position, which turned out to be totally pointless because the school does not yet exist. (!)

But, my day will not have been completely useless. I decided to check out the outdoor public swimming pool. It was … heaven! Over lunch break- from noon until 1.30pm- we were only ten people in the pool. Even after school groups arrived, we still had a lot of room to swim and glide in the water. Oh, water! Rain! Sea! Ocean! I miss you so, very much!
