Hello,
My name is Thanh (Emile)…
Of Vietnamese origin, I have been living in France since 1976, where I arrived at the age of 13.
Today, I am married, a father of three children… and above all, a happy grandfather of four grandchildren.
I live in Charente-Maritime, but a part of my heart has always remained in Vietnam…
My return to the country in 2012 was a deeply moving moment… almost a rediscovery of my roots.
Since then, I return regularly (2014, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2023, …) always with the same pleasure… and the same emotion.
Over the years, I have traveled Vietnam from North to South, passing through the Center and the Central Highlands…, to Cambodia and Laos, ....and I have had the chance to organize several trips for relatives and friends.
Today, it is with sincerity and passion that I wish to accompany you in turn… to help you experience an authentic, simple… and unforgettable journey.
