Hi Nick! Well, it;s more exciting than I expected.

What are you doing?
Nguyen:
Lots of things. It's harvest time, so we help load the rice onto buffalo-drawn carts, ride it home and dry it. Have you ever ridden a cart?
Nick:
No, but I'd like it.
Nguyen:
And sometimes I go herding the buffaloes with the boys.
Nick:
You've made new friends?
Nguyen:
Yeah - right on my fiest day. They came and we went flying kites together.
Nick:
Where can you buy a kite in the countryside?

The people here don't buy kites - they make them. My grandfather's made me the largest, most colourful kite I've ever had. It looks great up there in the sky.
Nick:
Oh, I'm so envious!
Nguyen:
Ha...ha...I guess. I live more happily here, and there's still a lot more to explore.

Sounds great!

And everything seems to move more slowly here than in the city.
