In January 2024 I travelled to Cambodia with my younger son, my Cambodian American daughter in law and their young kids. I imagine rural Vietnam is very similar in many ways to rural Cambodia. Enjoyed reading this 3 years after you published it!
Alex! Another 5-star read! I’m currently on vacation on the Georgia coast line and I have prioritized only reading your Substack during my vacation vs. other writers. It brings me that much deep joy, and deep laughter.
Crazy to see how western society differs from rest of the world. Hope you guys had a good time. Really enjoyed the details about Chue, Breasts, "white savior of perspective" & drew Barrymore butterflies lol

Sorry. I'm just getting back to all your comments but I'm so glad to make your vacation better :D

Thanks Khris :) glad you laughed
Hey! New reader from Costa Rica coming here from your NYTimes article. Laughed out loud reading this. Definitely planning to read more from you.
I have little recollection of how I got here, but so very glad I did. Hilarious- and still moving.
Love you Alexander.
Thanks for the good read!
Colorful in many ways....
Thanks Kathi! Love you too!
