Christina Marie's Travel Blog
Welcome to my blog! I left the country for the first time two years ago and have been obsessed with traveling ever since. Entries include videos, photos and details from my adventures, including my time living and teaching English in Vietnam. Enjoy!

Since I created a list of the top 20 things I’ll miss from New York City before I left, I believe it’s only fair that I do the same for Vietnam. In no particular order, here are the top 20 things I’ll miss from Vietnam:
- My students
- Coffee
- New friends (both Vietnamese and American)
- Taking two hour naps everyday
- Paying less than $10 a day to live
- Skipping the chilly winter months in NYC
- Not being the whitest person in town
- Learning about a new culture
- Going to random weddings
- Healthy and fresh food
- Visiting incredible and unique pagodas
- Getting buzzed off of one beer
- $10/hour back massages
- Using chopsticks for every meal
- Banh Mi Op La (egg sandwich)
- Saying the only five things I know how to say in Vietnamese
- Teaching my students how to fist pump it like on Jersey Shore
- Working 15 hours a week
- Watching premiere episodes of Glee on Star World, which already appeared in America last year
- Getting confused looks when I tell people I’m Jewish
Just to list a few things I WILL NOT miss from Vietnam include the mosquitoes, risking my life on a motorbike, drinking beer with ice in a glass, and the awful Internet connection.
