Each trip is an asset that I cherish, accumulate and feel grateful for having a "rich" youth, sparkling with joy.
Traveling to me is not just a place to relax and unwind, but also an opportunity to explore new lands and expand my limits. I just had a truly meaningful journey to start the new year in Phu Yen - the land of "yellow flowers on green grass" that has been featured in many works of poetry and cinema, and is also the hometown of my beloved friend.

From Ho Chi Minh City, I took the earliest flight of the day to Tuy Hoa airport (Phu Yen) and began my exciting experiences. Choosing motorbikes as our means of transportation, we roamed through breathtakingly beautiful roads: on one side was the vast ocean and sky, on the other side were majestic cliffs.

Phu Yen is attractive not only because of its beautiful nature but also because of its unique relics such as Mang Lang Church - one of the oldest Catholic buildings in our country, over 120 years old. I was moved when I saw the first Vietnamese national language book being stored here. The book is titled "Eight-day Sermon", printed in the Vatican. We also visited and worshiped Thanh Luong Pagoda - the most famous spiritual tourist destination in "Xu Nau" and could not miss the wild and poetic Ganh Da Dia, then welcomed the brilliant sunrise at Mui Dien, and immersed ourselves in the cool sea breeze at Nghinh Phong Tower.

Phu Yen cuisine is an absolute plus, from hot banh beo chen, fragrant banh canh cha ca, rich vermicelli with fish sauce... and cozy family meals at my friend's house. All of it makes me love and miss this place.
I realized more and more: it is not necessary to have international destinations that cause a stir on social networks to bring satisfaction. Depending on your financial ability and time at each stage, young people should choose the right destination. Even in the country, there are many places that help us enrich our knowledge and emotions, hone our life skills and have quality social connections. The trip was not too long but it was a beautiful memory, adding positive energy to make me love Vietnam more.
