Vietnam
I’ve been living in Vietnam since July 2012. This resource page isn’t as comprehensive as my Pakistan links page, as I lived in Pakistan for three years, but I’ll be building it up with more articles and blog posts. Some sections are currently blank, but as I write more I will update.
In the meantime, if you have any specific questions, feel free to email me at heathercarreiro@gmail.com
