Hanoi, where the old and the new live side by side.  A city rich in history and culture and yet bursting at the seams to change. A city where tourists prefer to seek out the rich tapestry of traditions, amongst the buzz of ordinary street life, in all its craziness.  

Whether you decide to walk the streets or ride a bike to get around it, there are some great tips you should listen for,  when you visit. There is so much to discover, the variety will astound and delight you. From train street to the flower markets we cover it all in this episode.

My guest, Lavonne Bosman, decided to visit Vietnam for the purpose of capturing what she calls “disappearing worlds”. While she is caught in Hanoi during Covid 2021, she continues her search for those defining memories of ordinary people, carrying out their daily lives. 

Lavonne landed in Hanoi in 2019 and while teaching English since her arrival she has been expanding her portfolio with the street culture of the city.  She shares  some of those fun experiences on the show.
 
She has an exceptional portfolio of work which you can access through the links below and a photo postcard booklet, which is simply divine, and can be purchased here -  [email protected] or via Facebook:. https://www.facebook.com/LavonneBosmanPhotoArt
