We are French, from Lille (Anju is french-vietnamese). Life for us is always about being open to learning and trying something new! We moved to Vietnam in 2009. We first started in Saigon from April to December 2009, then we were in Hanoi for 1 year and half, and back to Saigon from June 2011. We travelled here in 2007 and we have been captived by this country and now, we really enjoy our new life here! If you wanna come to our place, we hope to show you how amazing and wonderful is Vietnam...
