It had been a busy day for me already. After waking in the early afternoon, I ran down to the street to grab a Banh Mi. I spent much of the afternoon around the pool and then went to a local shop for dinner. I spent the early evening strolling along the Nguyen Hue walking street. A great evening of snacking and people watching. Around 9:00 pm, I went up to my room to begin my work day.
Now, It was about 1:00 am and my colleagues were just leaving for their lunches. I was looking out the window of my room over the walking street and the earlier crowds were now gone. In their place a smaller group of young adults had gathered on the walking street. They had set up some makeshift goals and now a full blown game of football was starting.
I watched that game all through my colleagues lunch and it left a smile on my face the rest of the night. When I signed off early in the morning, I knew for sure that this was the life I wanted to lead.
