When my family and I returned to Melbourne from our first trip to Vietnam in January 2016, we were already making plans for a second – and third – visit to this amazing country. But first, I was keen to find a teacher that would enable me to continue to build on the basic survival traveller’s Vietnamese I’d already learned so that I could become more fluent and confident. How lucky I was to find Nguyễn Thanh Xuân Vi. As a highly experienced, professional, friendly, patient, encouraging and organized language teacher of adults, Xuân Vi has proved to be the perfect teacher for me.

Quảng Bình province - Phong Nha Kẻ Bàng National Park

As I am a nature beauty lover, Phong Nha National Park in Quang Binh province easily becomes my top favourite destination. 

“Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng National Park is a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site in the North Central Coast region of Vietnam, about 500 km south of Hanoi, bordering the Hin Namno Reserve in Laos. Characterised by mountains, tropical forests and underground rivers, it’s known for its ancient limestone karsts and vast network of caves."
