Day 5


Breakfast again at the hotel again, nothing new there. We went to the University and had a culture class again where we learned about the religious history of Vietnam and some more of the cultural differences.  After this we had Vitenamese class and we learned some common phrases. At lunch today we had omelets which were really good.


We left UEF to visit ASCENX technologies. The CEO of ASCENX is a Vietnamese war refugee who went to America when he was young. He gave us a brief history of Vietnam and how he started his company and what they do. Afterwards he treated us to Highland Coffee, which was awesome. I got a cookies and cream milkshake, I think it was one of the best ones I ever had. We definitely need to go back before we leave.


Students took us to get pizza for dinner on their motorbikes. Riding on them is never going to get old. After pizza we visited the starlight bridge, which is a bridge that glows at night and is a popular dating spot in Vietnam.
