Right in the heart of the old town you will find Lifestart
Foundation, a beautiful place were, different activities, such as lantern
making workshops, traditional post card painting lessons,
Vietnamese lessons and a fair trade shop.
I spent a very relaxing morning developing unimaginable
skills and, by participating in this activities, giving a small
contribution to those with less opportunities.
I still can’t believe I was able to paint a post card! Ok, I must
say the truth, the flower on my card were double the size of the
traditional boat, but who cares? I had a lot of fun! And then I
participated of this lantern making class which was very relaxing and funny.
While making your lantern, and drinking lovely iced tea, I had the chance to
find out more about the Vietnamese life style and also about the
foundation.
I do recommend these workshops, or, for those without time, a
visit to their shop were very interesting souvenirs can be find. by taking
workshops and buying their souvenirs, you are helping or support their projects
and help the community.
