hristmas is coming with the Jingle Bell’s song played at every corner of the capital. In the early morning, I walk to the post office, holding some handmade cards filled with sweet wishes for my loved ones. Christmas is always the best time to spread the love and I feel like a young child waiting for it. People wait in long lines at the post office. I join the line, waiting for my turn to send some postcards abroad. In front of me are two cute boys nestling behind their mother. The younger one, about 9 years old, is telling his brother “Santa Claus will give gifts to me because I am nicer than you. You haven’t prepared gifts for dad, not to mention that your letter doesn’t have a stamp on it.” The little boy loses his train of thought, holding his letter higher to see where the stamp is. He keeps it for a while that I see his lovely writing “To my bearded dad”. Perhaps, the stamp has been lost somewhere on the way here or his mother forgot to stick it on his letter. “Hey boy, it’s for you”, I put my hand in my pocket, find a stamp and give it to the boy. The two boys looks at me and hesitantly takes it after their mother nods to them. They express their gratitude and smile happily, knowing that their letters would be delivered to their beloved dad. Leaving the post office, I still hope that their father could come home to celebrated Christmas with his family. After all, the most valued Christmas gifts are sharing moments with friends and family.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Following the epic Star Wars, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is a side story of Star War series. Rogue One takes place shortly before the original Star Wars film, Episode IV - A New Hope (1977). The story reveals part of the plan of a group of unlikely heroes with a mission to steal the plans for the Death Star, the Empire's ultimate weapon of destruction. Unlike the previous episodes of Star Wars which feature people who control magic forces, Rouge One: A Star Wars Story's characters include ordinary people who choose to do extraordinary things. With voyeuristic movie techniques, the film promises to excite fans of Star Wars this December. 2D and 3D film at nationwide CGV cinemas

Feel the music with SING (Animation blockbuster) This Christmas, Illumination Entertainment is introducing the animation blockbuster Sing with the voice of leading Hollywood stars including Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Seth MacFarlane, and Taron Egerton. The film promises to make every audience swing and dance with the music. Sing is about 6 animal's journey of self exploration: a dapper koala who presides over a oncegrand theater that has fallen on hard times, a mouse who croons as smoothly as he cons, a timid teenage elephant with an enormous case of stage fright, an overtaxed mother run ragged tending a litter of 25 piglets, a young gangster gorilla looking to break free of his family's felonies, and a punk-rock porcupine struggling to shed her arrogant boyfriend and go solo.

Like Hansel and Gretel in the Brothers Grimm's fairy tales, eyeing a house with walls made from ginger bread, roofs from cakes, and windows from sugar, everyone could be mesmerized by the fragrant houses of gingerbread when Christmas comes.

weddings. It's widely believed that they have magical powers to protect people from evil and bring them peace during these days. In the Middle Ages, monks made gingerbread to treat digestive diseases. The first batches of gingerbread cookies were made in Europe in the late 11th century when crusaders returned from the Middle East, bringing with them the recipe of special "spicy cookies".

CHRISTMAS COMES WHEN the streets are full of colors and Christmas songs are played around every corner. At that moment, sipping a cup of hot chocolate and enjoying gingerbread are most comfy. Gingerbread cookies are traditional gifts for special occasions, including Christmas, Easter, and even

The main ingredients of gingerbread include flour, ginger, honey, cinnamon, and sugar. Smooth and white powdered sugar for icing is indispensable for the dish. Because it hardens after a few minutes, the sugar is used as "mortar" to connect the different parts of the cookie house. Making the house's bricks gingerbread is also a challenge. If the dough is too dry, it breaks easily. If the dough is too wet, the house will collapse. This Christmas, why don't you try

to build your own fairy house? Make the roof, build the fences with cinnamon sticks, spread sweets along the pathways, and watch the "snow icing" cover the whole place. With a simple recipe of sugar, flour, eggs, and milk, gingerbread cookies bring you the breath of winter that no other cake can. It's the spicy taste of cinnamon and ginger blended with the sweetness of milk and sugar. Gingerbread is not just a part of the fairy house, but a special gift for us - adults in the modern world or "children" who never want to grow up. You can enjoy gingerbread at nationwide bakeries.

Christmas comes to town along with the winter winds and songs on the radio. It's time for family parties with pudding and of course, turkey - an indispensable Christmas dish first made by the Romans as they gradually started converting to Christianity.

IT'S NOT EASY to make a delicious turkey dish as the entire 10 kg bird must be roasted through while making sure that the meat is not too dry and the skin does not burn. To get crispy skin and soft meat, chefs often separate the meat and the skin and rub Lµm sao cho nguy™n mÈt con butter onto the turkey.

The best stuffing for roast turkey are truffles. However, truffles are one of the world's five most expensive foods, including caviar, foie gras, abalone, and shark fins. There are numerous recipes for stuffed turkey. Some people use fruits such as oranges, apples, and chestnuts. Some people put together Turduckens (Turkey + duck + chicken) which is somewhat Frankensteinesque: a chicken inside a duck inside a turkey. This recipe is only for someone who really loves meat! The last step is roasting the turkey. Just turning it to roast it well takes a lot of energy. After about 20 - 30 minutes, you need to take the turkey out to sprinkle fat on it. Finally, after hours of preparing, why not enjoy this scrumptious dish with a glass of Pinot Noir? TRAVELLIVE

WHEN CHRISTIANS get excited about preparing their feasts, I don't miss a chance to buy a few pieces of paper and a roll of colored silk ribbons, as well as take painting pens out of my drawer. I usually write and draw anything that comes to mind, wishing the receiver to share my thoughts at these moments. Feelings are drawn in color and shared with love. I came up with the idea for making Christmas cards a few years ago when my German friends couldn't find any cards sold on Hang Gai Street with correctly spelled words. They decided to make me a card with a candy box. Their treasures included some candy from their last trip, a cake from a grocery store, and numerous wishes in different languages that they have learned during their long trip. We ate the candy and cakes that morning, and the candy box disappeared after cleaning my house a few times, but the habit of exchanging cards become a part of our friendship. Love is not enough if it is hidden. We always need presents, flowers, hugs, kisses, and sweet texts. Perhaps, it is that reason why festivals which allow us to spread love like Christmas are abundant.

GENERAL MANAGER PAN PACIFIC HANOI HOTEL

Our "secret" lies in the unique "Pacific touch" By introducing the Pan Pacific brand to the capital Hanoi, Pan Pacific Hotels Group has marked a milestone, confirming its long-term solid investment for the next projects in the main tourist attractions in Vietnam. Travellive has had a talk with Mr. Marc Emmanuel General Manager - Pan Pacific Hanoi Hotel.

Could you please share with us the major changes that have been made after rebranding from Sofitel Plaza to Pan Pacific Hanoi? Formerly known as Sofitel Plaza Hanoi, our hotel has recently been rebranded to Pan Pacific Hanoi since October 2016, and is the first Pan Pacific hotel in Vietnam. The Group also operates the award-winning PARKROYAL Saigon in Ho Chi Minh. Pan Pacific Hotels Group is a whollyowned hotel subsidiary of UOL Group Limited, one of Asia's most established hotel and property companies. Based in Singapore, PPHG owns and manages close to 40 hotels, resorts and serviced suites with more than 11,000 rooms including those under development in Asia, Oceania, North America, and Europe. Well, as you may have known, rebranding is not just about changing the exterior signage. The lobby, lobby bar, all-day dining restaurant, and meeting space have been restored. Other than physical changes, there have been thousands of training hours among our 400 associates and departments. All hotel associates have been working hard for 4 consecutive

would not be the "hardware" materials, it's the service. In order to accomplish that, we strive to constantly keep our associates in the centre of all what we do. We invest in the people, encourage them to be more and more interactive with guests and empower them to challenge their creativity in satisfying guests' needs.

When expanding Pan Pacific Hotels & Resorts into Vietnam, why did PPHG choose Hanoi as the first destination? How do you evaluate the potential and attractiveness of this market?


managed to minimize the hiccups during the transfer.

5

The brand promise of "your refreshing Pacific experience" is shown through a blend of cultural and national heritage of the Pacific Rim. How is it applied in the products and services at Pan Pacific Hanoi? Our "secret" lies in the unique "Pacific touch", the key to delivering a sense of modern vibrancy and the warmth of Pacific Rim hospitality. The "Pacific touch" engages guests' all five senses.

Vietnam is an important market for PPHG and we were eager to introduce the Pan Pacific brand to this market, and especially in the capital city of Hanoi. The country is ushering in a new phase in travel and tourism and the market looks optimistic. The figures speak for themselves as international travellers to Vietnam and Hanoi have jumped by 25.4% and 24.4% respectively against same period last year, according to the National Vietnam Administration of Tourism. We're enthusiastic about these developments, which we hope will open up opportunities for PPHG to establish more flags in key destinations here. Vietnam is also a key piece in our wider strategy for Indochina, where we have secured important projects such as Pan Pacific Yangon in Myanmar.

4

Is it true that with this potential comes several significant challenges for the hotel management, operations, and service team?

Yes, totally. Firstly, as any new brand presented to Vietnam, we need to invest time and effort on brand awareness, positioning Pan Pacific in the market and building up our reputation. Secondly, competitiveness has been relatively raised year by year. The best hospitality professionals have come along with significant brands and expertise, and there are still many more to come. However, competition motivates progress and development. As hoteliers, every day is a new day and the sense of achievement is the daily "bonus" for "creating memorable experiences for our guests". So yes, we actually "need" that motivation. And last but not least, changes need adaption. It is a factual circumstance that we are challenged with changes of technical systems, service standards, and brand attributes. On the other hand, we have strived to retain talents, provide more training and recognize their contribution before and during the rebranding. As a result, we

Imagine after having been through hours of airplane travelling, you arrive at the hotel lobby and feel welcomed by the interior däcor which brings a sense of space and calm, the signature Pan Pacific scent easing the mind and the best smiles in the world. Imagine you come here to stay with us all the way from Europe, suffering from jet lag and find your own comfort with 24/24 room service and our sleep TV channel. And I cannot miss out mentioning the "taste" - our Pacific cuisine embraces recipes and cultural influences from around the Pacific Rim. Whether it is chilli and ginger from Southeast Asia, palm sugar from the jungles of Indonesia, Vietnamese prawns, Canadian salmon, Singapore crab or Australian beef, our Pacific-inspired cuisine embraces the best of the region.

6

Being no new face among hoteliers in Hanoi, why did you choose to come back to this city?

Having spent over 5 years in Hanoi prior to relocating to Cambodia at the beginning of 2016, life made things happen that I can call Hanoi home, for me and my family. Coming back to Hanoi really feels like coming back home, and is a great chance for our daughter to grow with her both cultures and roots, the French and the Vietnamese ones.

Having lived in Russia for a long time, my parents and sister always hosted a Christmas party each year. When I was a child, my parents told me to write letters to Santa Claus, asking for gifts. After that, they bought the gifts and hid them in the cabinet. In the following year, I would suddenly find the gifts which I wished for. Since that time, Christmas has been the starting time of my journey - to find my gifts. When we moved to America and Switzerland, my parents had more friends and partners; therefore, during Christmas time, we visited them and immersed ourselves in the festive atmosphere and the customs in their places. Being married, my husband and I always want to share the hospitality that we have received from others. We prepare some parties and treat our friends with traditional Christmas dishes such as turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, strawberry jam, cream cake, and cinnamon cake.” TRAVELLIVE

“Love is all around” is the message that director Richard Curtis delivers in his movie. With stars including Keira Knightley, Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Colin Firth, Liam Neeson, and Rowan Atkinson, Love Actually features 8 love stories, each with its own colors: romance, humor, and meaning. All stories together embody the sweet melodies of love. The taste of love still lingers every Christmas season.

My relatives invited us to come to their house and enjoy the festivities from the 18th to 25th of December. In Vietnam, although we live far away from our relatives, we attempt to keep the American customs on Christmas. We invite neighbors, colleagues, and friends to join the party, play games, and sing Christmas carols together.

Lu Tan - The secret in the foggy streets Unlike luxurious big hotels, Lu Tan makes guests feel at home with friendly, enthusiastic, and hospitable friends. If you are not a frequent guest, it’s not easy to find the hotel because Lu Tan is just a small white villa modestly nestled on a steep lane. It’s very cold in Dalat during winter. The temperature can be 10 - 11 degrees C. However, the cold won’t find its way into your cozy room full of sunlight. Most of the rooms share a good view of the villa’s 2 large gardens. Lie on a sofa, sunbathe, and feel the movement of cool winds bearing the fragrance of pine to your place. Peaceful moments are the best gifts you can find on a Christmas morning. The most intriguing place in Lu Tan is the large lounge with an old fireplace and lots of cotton carpets and lazy pillows where people can gather to read good books, share a cup of tea, and feel the breath of winter. Moreover, if you like preparing breakfast for your loved ones, ask the staff and they will deliver fresh vegetables from the farm to your room.

Colmar had me from the very first moment, making me feel that this is a place I must visit in my lifetime. It’s is an idyllic French village with ancient moss-covered castles, quiet streets, and narrow alleys lined with vine covered walls and colorful flower pots. It is truly an enchanting place as my local friend told me by email some days ago. Located on the border between Germany and France, Colmar is the third-largest community in north-eastern France and entices visitors with its historic towns along the beautiful river. It is also known as the “capital of Alsatian wine”. Traveling to Colmar at any time leaves one feeling lost wondering if you are in reality or wandering in the world of fairy tales.

The village of “Beauty and the beast” Situated in the Alsace region on the eastern border of France, Colmar’s culture, history, and architecture are strongly influenced by Germany. Colmar is considered a little Venice in the heart of France - “Le petite Venise”. You can see the closely bunched wooden houses with their clay tiles and multi-colored shutters reflected off of the still water of the river.

The tranquil walkways along flower-covered balconies and the cobblestone roads going across a bridge leave a special impression on me. The narrow lanes leading to a beautiful village could charm anyone. Some wooden works designed in old styles are intact.

Traveling to Colmar at any time leaves one feeling lost wondering if you are in reality or wandering in the world of fairy tales.

Colmar is the setting of Walt Disney’s “Beauty and the beast”. Every house here is as colorful and beautiful as the houses pictured in old volumes of fairy tales with their red and black pitched roofs and painted wood sprinted walls. The attic windows are adorned with countless flowers. The scene is so fantastic that I wouldn’t be surprised to find Belle or Cinderella opening a door and walking out from one of these houses. Sometimes, I imagine that some of the houses are made of gingerbread like in the Grimm Brother’s Hansel and Gretel. Hung on some of the wood-sprinted walls

If you love Japanese anime, do not miss a chance to visit Maison Pfister which was the model for Howl's Moving Castle. Colmar’s architecture bears the features of the Alsace region and a nostalgic beauty as in the stories of old, making a stroll around the town an exciting experience that few places offer.

are boards with funny words and old shop and restaurant signs.

Canals through the city My friend Marie was born and grew up here. She narrates the history of Colmar as we walk along the main canal and contemplate

the tranquil beauty of the town. Although she no longer lives here, she has many childhood memories as her family occupied a house overlooking the canals. What she remembers most is the time when she and her friend played near the canals after school. “Everything has changed or has even been destroyed over the years, but the canals in my hometown have remained the same, watching the town transform over time”, she said. This makes me feel like the hustle of modern life can’t touch this old city. We enter St. Martin’s church which was built with red stone and features a prominent steeple. From the highest point, I can see the Alsatian crest, a porcelain family of storks gathering at their nest. I walk slowly into the church, attentively peering into the stained-glass windows from the Middle Ages. TRAVELLIVE

Upon going deep into the shopping district, I’m captivated by the signature souvenir shops. Located in narrow alleys, all of them are petite, lovely, and finely decorated. Merchants showcase their goods along the walkways and hang pretty things outside the windows to entice visitors. You will always be greeted

It’s not surprising that the Christmas fair in Colmar has been listed as one of the most appealing in Europe for years. Every street small and large has vivid lights and flowers, allowing couples to immerse themselves in the beautiful scenes. I haven’t seen any other places where people prepare for Christmas in such meticulous and creative ways as in Colmar. The more I explore, the more I wonder whether preparing for Christmas is the only task the locals have through the year. Everything from the high Christmas

In the cold weather, the fragrance of gingerbread, oranges, and cinnamon draw me into stores full of Christmas specialties. Apart from common goods such as dried fruit, wine, and sweets, the fair offers ceramics, dried meat, and Alsace wine. The yellow light from the stores is so enchanting that I keep going from store to store without feeling tired when realize I have walked dozens of kilometers. Christmas is also a special occasion for locals to introduce their best products including wooden dolls,

During Christmas time, dozens of kilometers of streets and squares are adorned with lights and flowers, following different themes. Music and festive atmosphere cover the entire city. with a friendly smile. Even if you don’t buy anything, they still smile and say merci beaucoup. My favorite items were the music boxes the size of a matchbox but featured special things. You can listen to loads of different types of music like Blue Danube, spring melodies, and more by famous composers. Each box’s decorations match their melodies.

And, the heat of the Christmas fair The Colmar Christmas fair is one of the most attractive things for visitors around the world. With its long history and cultural traditions, the fair often lasts about 1 month with more than 300 stalls selling handicrafts, food, and the Alsace region’s distinct Christmas decorations. Dozens of kilometers of streets and squares are adorned with lights and flowers, following different themes. The music and festive atmosphere cover the entire city.

Intimate European Christmas parties near the fireplace with roasted turkey, ham, and pudding don’t exist in an Australian house. Instead, the land of kangaroos cheers for Christmas in their own way with grilled shrimp, ripe cherries, and crowded beaches. TRAVELLIVE

Due to its geographic location in the southern hemisphere, Christmas comes to Australia in summer when the temperature can be up to 30-40 degrees C. With festivities lasting from December 24th to the end of January 1st (even up to 2 weeks), this is the most important holiday for Australians. They spend the time relaxing, travelling, and of course shopping.

W

hether you are Christian or not, Christmas is a great time to enjoy because a number of brands offer special discounts during the holiday, especially on Boxing Day - December 26th. This is also one of the year’s biggest sales in Australia, just behind the sales in late June (the end of the fiscal year). During the holiday, locals will line up, excited to buy products from famous brands such as Zara, Topshop, Timberland, and more at low prices, even at half of the what’s usual. Moreover, since 1956, all large windows at the Myer Department store in Melbourne and David

In recent years, instead of using traditional Christmas scenes like the Christmas tree, snowflakes, and reindeer, the two department stores have started using local elements such as yellow sand, the blue sea, and jungle scenes to decorate their building. Jones’ in Sydney have been sophisticatedly adorned, following the themes of Christmas stories such as A Christmas Carol, The 12 Days of Christmas, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas. In recent years, instead of using traditional Christmas scenes like the Christmas tree, snowflakes, and reindeer, the two department stores have started using local elements such as yellow sand, the blue sea, and jungle scenes to decorate their building. Seeing families with small kids lining up to watch the windows in Myer’s makes it a unique and intimate experience.

In addition, at night, main attractions in Melbourne such as Federation Square, the town hall, and Flinders Station will simultaneously show light projections which look like huge gift boxes. Each of Melbourne’s administrative areas such as Fitzroy, Carlton, and Footscray will host carols by candlelight in the parks. Everyone can join the event with a small candle to light up the space. All food stalls and restaurants are closed on Christmas; therefore, if you want to go out for meal, visit Chinatown and enjoy dim sum.


Seasonal fruits, including mango and cherries, are chilled to serve as dessert. However, “honors change manners”. It’s quite funny how in Australia, saying “Merry Christmas” could leave your listener miffed. With the large number of immigrants from different cultures, some groups of people, especially Muslims, Orthodox or Jews, whose holidays are at the same time, don’t celebrate Christmas. For me, it doesn’t matter; the days off and the huge discounts are the best! Further information: Weather: ü The temperature in December in Melbourne is about 14 - 24 degrees C. This is the best time to have fun in beaches around Sydney because sea water gets warmer thanks to the warm currents. Itinerary: ü It’s easier to travel from Vietnam to Sydney as Vietnam Airlines has opened direct routes connecting the two places. Before returning to Vietnam, go to the airport early to receive GST refunds (if your shopping bill costs 300AUD or more) Food: ü Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Thai food is popular in big cities such as Melbourne and Sydney. If you like oysters and fresh salmon, visit the South Melbourne Market (get on the 96 tram from Southern Cross Station to St Kilda Beach) or the Sydney Fish Market.

Chinatown is also the only place open all the time. Parks and beaches are full of families on picnics and enjoying “Barbies”, what Australians

call BBQs. Black tiger shrimp, lobster, and freshwater shrimp are favorites. Particularly, Sydney Fish Market sells about 120 tons of shrimp and 70,000 oysters within 36 hours each year.

Shopping: ü The Chadstone Shopping Centre (Melbourne) is Australia’s largest. Chadstone’s area is equivalent to 10 football and is home to all fashion brands and its courses. From the heart of Melbourne, go to Federation Square, take free shuttle bus to Chadstone. Located on Chapel - one of the busiest streets in Melbourne, the Chapel Street Bazaar (Melbourne) is an interesting place with antiques and collections in various qualities and prices. TRAVELLIVE

HO THU HUONG

The author of Green Passport Goes around the World - Steps to Become a Global Citizen

Ho Thu Huong has lived in 7 countries on 4 different continents and has traveled to 27 countries around the world. With impressive achievements in studying and working, she has gradually collected her own “treasure” - living experiences. Ms. Huong is excited to share with Travellive’s readers her views on the “global citizenship” concept and her new book Green Passport Goes Around the World - Steps to become a global citizen which is going to be published in the beginning of December.

your life and spend your time on these activities? What is the secret to studying and working well while having enough time to travel?

A 28-year-old girl has traveled to 27 countries and lived in 4 different continents. How impressive it is! Is all this a result of a long preparation?

M

y journey around the world was not planned in advance. During my time at high school in the Czech Republic, I was always dreaming about traveling to the lands mentioned in the Geography, History, French, and English textbooks. However, I couldn’t imagine that after having graduated from high school, I - a little girl from a developing country who grew up in a small city in Central Europe - would have a chance to “conquer the world”. At that time, being aware of my disadvantages when compared to my fellow students, I always

112

TRAVELLIVE

reminded myself to try my best for the best results. I actively participated in contests at my school and other organizations to... have a chance to travel to different cities and countries. The contests gradually brought me to France, Belgium, Portugal, Estonia, Canada, the US, and other countries. You studied, worked, and traveled at the same time. How did you balance

Since I was a child, I have always been a multitasker. I can do many things at the same time. Growing up, I improved my time management skills. And guess what, during the first 2 months after returning to Canada upon graduation, I worked in about 20 part-time jobs before getting a full-time job as a Sales and Marketing Manager. I worked for the World Congress of Dermatology, casted for a short movie and a documentary. I tried different things from working at football matches to doing research, from being a hair model for an international hair show to having a part-time job at a Vietnamese fast food restaurant, teaching English, and modelling. I usually keep myself updated on the latest information about international academic and professional opportunities to have more chances to travel and to broaden my knowledge, gain more experience,


and hone my personal skills. A small tip is to look for upcoming events in the places you are going to travel to. They can be conferences, short-term courses, exhibitions, or whatever you are interested in. Prepare carefully for each trip and set a plan in advance so that you don’t miss any interesting information.

How meaningful were the trips and how do they affect your life? Does knowing different languages make it easier to travel? For me, the trips have not only helped me explore new lands, but they have also allowed me to learn meaningful lessons. They have made me become more open-minded and sociable. I am now more tolerant towards different groups of people and willing to accept contrasting thoughts and viewpoints. The best way to get on well with others is to live with an open heart and accept differences. Knowing and using foreign languages enables me to see the world of the locals through their own eyes. For great trips, you need to understand well about the culture and lifestyle of local people in order to avoid having to face culture shock.

“Global citizenship” is a popular concept nowadays. It is also mentioned in your book Green Passport Goes Around the World - Steps To Become a Global Citizen which is going to be published in Vietnam. So according to your experiences, how does a person become a global citizen? The concept of global citizenship is becoming more and more popular in our modern world. Those who want to be a global citizen should ideally live in different countries, know and use 2 or more languages, respect other people’s opinions, have no prejudices against people they do not know, be concerned about global news and issues, not be afraid of changes and new things, easily adapt to new environments, be willing to deal with

Czech people don’t eat anything from the morning until the afternoon for luck. It’s believed that if they don’t eat anything for the whole day, they will see golden pigs flying in the sky that bring luck for the year to come. After a festive Christmas dinner, it is the time for presents. Each member prepares presents for the others.

any problems that comes in their way, and never give up. Of course, the should-do list is endless and there is no exact definition for the term of global citizenship. But, for me, a global citizen is someone who has a potential to succeed anywhere in the world and can, in his mind, go beyond all boundaries between different countries and cultures. Since August 2015, I have developed a project named Green Passport Goes Around the World with my two Vietnamese friends, Linh and Duc, to inspire people to travel, learn about themselves and the world, and become global citizens. The book with the same name will share with the readers the experiences we have gained on 6 continents. The main message is “No matter which color of the passport you have, be it green, blue, or red, it cannot determine your life.” Many Vietnamese people think that the Vietnamese green passport limits their ways to go around the world. Nevertheless, I believe that it’s actually us with our limitations and wrong attitudes that prevent us from achieving our global dreams.

Christmas and New Year’s are just around the corner. What does your family often do during this festive season? I like Christmas. My family used to celebrate Christmas in the Czech style. We usually decorated a Christmas tree 3 weeks before the Christmas night, made Christmas cookies, and listened to cheerful carols. On December 24th,

In my childhood I always celebrated Christmas and New Year’s Eve with my family. But then I moved to North America where I have settled down. Last year, I celebrated Christmas with my husband in Florida, USA. This was the first time I celebrated Christmas on the beach under the heat of 30 degrees Celsius. This year, I am going to celebrate Christmas in Vietnam.

Many thanks Ho Thu Huong for sharing such interesting things with the Travellive’s readers.

The authors Ho Thu Huong, Nguyen Van Linh and Pham Anh Duc will introduce their book Green Passport Goes Around the World - Steps to Become a Global Citizen to the audience in: ü Hanoi (on December 16th, 5pm - 7pm) at East-West Cultural Space, Hacinco Student Village, Gate 1, 99 Nguy Nhu Kon Tum, Thanh Xuan, Ha Noi. ü Vinh (on December 17th, 4:30pm - 6:30pm) at Nghe An Provincial Library, No 11, V.I.

Once again, Paris appears in my mind with amazing moments of early winter with cold weather and overcast skies. And these below are must-visit places in Paris this season.

Morning coffee on the bank of the St Martin Canal Visit the St Martin Canal in the early morning on the weekend and wander around this precious and serene space in the heart of Paris. You can stroll down the street or rent a bike from the Veslib public bike supplier to go around the roads on the canal’s bank. The canal was built in 1802 by Napoläon Bonaparte to supply water to the inhabitants. You can witness the iron bridge in which Amälie, in the movie about her, skips stones. A couple of steps away are a number of Antoine et Lili

stores in various colors, from yellow and pink to apple green. These stores stand near each other, inviting guests to approach and contemplate the colorful cartoon world inside the glass windows. While Parisians and visitors are still sleeping in their warm houses, I treat myself with a cup of hot chocolate at a cafä in a small corner of the city. Upon serving my drink, the beautiful waitress suggests turning on a heat lamp on the wall. “Oui! Merci beaucoup, mademoiselle”(Thank you, Miss) - I respond. Now I understand how people can enjoy coffee outdoor year-round without being cold.

Location: ü With a length of 4.55km, ST Martin Canal is in Dist. 10 and 11. To reach there, you can catch metro to Stalingrad, Räpublique, Goncourt, Jauräs, Oberkampf, Richard-Lenoir, Bastille, or Quai de la Rapäe station.

IN THE END OF THE YEAR FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE, TH–S GEORGE CANNON GETS MORE VIVID WITH RED CHRISTMAS TEA BOXES. 80 photos hang along Mädicis street, not only bring you to heritage works such as the memorial buildings, stations, old houses, and churches around France, but tell you stories about the passion and skillful hands of artisans. Event: This winter, on the occasion of 20th year of the Heritage Fund, French Upper House is treating locals and visitors with “Le Patrimoine, une Passion, des Hommes” exhibition from now until January 15th, 2017.

Enjoy tea in Paris 6Ëme

A

Explore Grand Cerf alley part from straight and luxurious highways such as Champs Elysees, or Haussmann, Paris entices travelers with small roofed alleys called “pass couvert”.

The highlight of these alleys is their location behind small streets. Nestled among large buildings, the alleys are hard to find. This is also the reason why the Passage du Grand-Cerf is deserted despite its proximity to bustling Montorgueil Street. Dating back in 1825, it is one of the oldest passage couverts in Paris covered with metal and iron frames and sophisticated sculpted angles. Thanks to its large colorful glass roof, the alley is always full of light. Here, you can visit a number of creative spaces with various products. De Marseille et D'Ailleurs sells cosmetics and perfume, Le Pas Sage is a themed bar, and Lil Weasel focuses on bedding, while L’Illustre Boutique honors the quintessence of artists. The products are produced in limited quantity and each signed by the artist. Moreover, the shop boasts a corner displaying unique ceramic products by Elise Lefebrve. Location : Pass du Grand-Cerf is near Montorgueil in Dist. 2 and 3 minute walk from the –tienne Marcel Metro station.

Contemplate the outdoor photo exhibition in the fence of Luxembourg garden In the guidebook, “Dessine-moi un parisien”, the author Olivier Magny suggests that readers take in the beauty of the photos on the fence around the famed Jardin du Luxembourg.

A few steps away from Saint-Placide metro station is Thäs George Cannon, one of the most interesting places to enjoy tea in Dist. 6. It offers more than 250 types of tea from around the world (including China, India, Japan, Vietnam, and more). In the end of the year festive atmosphere, Thäs George Cannon gets more vivid with red Christmas tea boxes. The taste of tea is sweeter and more special with the flavors of herbs and aromas from France, such as orange peel, cinnamon, caramel, and black currant. Event: Thäs George Cannon is introducing a painting exhibition by Jean Cabane, who comes from northern France and has lived in Central Vietnam for more than 10 years. The “–loge du Silence” exhibition lasts until January 1st, 2017.


Wait for sunset in Le Marais

about 10 Euro for a bag or 30 Euro for a leather suit.

Le Marais is a favorite place for freedom lovers. The area consists of antique shops, galleries, gay bars, fashion stores for rock fans, clothes made from batik or cashmere, silverware, photography shops, and many themed cafes.

To finish an afternoon wandering in Le Marais, I always go to Vosges -the oldest square in Paris. It was built in 1605 for the marriage of King Louis XIII and the Austrian Princess Anna. Chains of houses symmetrically run along the square, offering you a getaway from the bustling streets outside. Sitting on a stone chair and watching the trees shed their leaves, strolling down red corridors, or admiring peaceful roofs in the red orange sky are some romantic options.

It’s fantastic to see fashion stores of famous brands exchanging friperie and selling old clothes. And, the shops with lower prices are busier than the others. If you follow famous fashion bloggers, you will realize that they often “hunt” for old things in Le Marais, buying vintage dresses, old leather bags, or coats that haven’t been seen for years. The sweetest thing here is the prices. Prepare to spend

For me, at the nearby restaurant, I love savoring a glass of red wine which suits the sky’s color. However, the type of wine depends on the waiter’s suggestion.

Location: ü Le Marais is in Dist. 4. You can take metro to H´tel de Ville or Saint-Paul, the two most convenient stations.

WHERE EACH GARDEN IS UNPARALLELED Even in the cold days of winter, Paris still greets you with its stunning beauty. The abundant sunlight illuminates gardens with vivid scenes that enchant everyone.

I

f you are looking for something romantic for a cold night this winter, Midnight in Paris by Woody Allen is a treat. Let’s wander between the past and present with the main character Gil Pender - an American writer. At work, Gil gets lost in colorful scenes of gorgeous Paris. He is fascinated with the ancient streets, unpredictable rain, meetings, and sweet sunshine sparkling through flowers and leaves from a garden in the middle of Paris. My friend was worried about the grey skies and layers of thick clothes when she planned to visit Paris this winter. Upon listening to her, I just smiled, assuring her that even on winter days when pages of sad poems are written, Paris still greets us with its stunning sunshine and spectacular gardens which enchant every visitor.

The Jardin des Tuileries - the colorful royal garden Located right in Dist. 1, the center of Paris, the Jardin des Tuileries is familiar

to inhabitants and is a must-visit destination for visitors. The park is also surrounded with famous landmarks such as the Louvre, Concorde Square, and Palais Royal. In the past, Tuileries was the setting of tile factories (tuilerie means tiles in French). In the 17th century, King Louis XIV decided to build a magnificent park open to all people. Designed by the legendary landscape architect Andrä le N´tre, the Jardin des Tuileries became the first public park in Paris.

Tuileries, year after year, retains different shades of beauty classicality, vitality, and appeal. In recent times the Jardin des Tuileries is considered a significant work of Le N´tre and has been well preserved. To reach Tuileries, you can walk from the Louvre, where the transparent inverted pyramid is placed. Wander around the garden, lie on the grass under a finely trimmed flower bush, or sip a cup of hot coffee at Renard, an outdoor cafä. Be careful, a plate of savory rum flavored

crepes is mesmerizing. It’s easy to contemplate the ancient houses built during the Haussmann restoration and free your soul in the poetic spaces in every corner of Tuileries. The Jardin des Tuileries has become an ideal destination. In recent years, the city has even hosted the Dinner en Blanc (white prom) in the gardens for Paris’ inhabitants. They wear elegant white outfits, savor rose wine, and share happy moments while the aroma of flowers lingers in the historic Tuileries. The garden is renowned for its peaceful atmosphere, but in another area of the park is a different space - a vibrant amusement park with a roller coaster, a free falling ball, or darting. Buy a ticket to the huge ferris wheel to admire the sparking Eiffel Tower from above. Try the barbe µ papa cotton candy or a skewer of red apple while wandering around the park and living in the Paris of the old films. Tuileries, year after year, retains different shades of beauty classicality, vitality, and appeal.

THE JARDIN DU LUXEMBOURG - THE ROMANTIC FAIRY GARDEN

hat more could we ask for than to enjoy the slow moments in life? Read a good book, listen to the songs of birds, or go in a picnic with friends. However busy Parisians are, they always try to spend time balancing their life by “breathing” and living closer to nature. The Luxembourg garden is one of their favorite choices on sunny weekends. They go to this pretty green oasis to be nostalgic, carefree, and romantic. Situated between Saint Germain des Präs and Latin street, Luxembourg is like a charming girl who meticulously arranges every detail among the yellow marble foliage. You will be surprised, feeling like you are getting lost in a fairly land

upon seeing the tree-shaded roads leading to green corners, sophisticate fountains, and the statues of gods and taciturn famous people. The highlight of the picturesque garden is the famed Palais de Luxembourg which is like a sleeping beauty enticing many men. It’s hard to get bored with the fairy tale world of a traditional French puppet theater, a sparkling merry go round, contemporary photo exhibitions, and outdoor playground where you can play petan or chess. You will smile as you watch little kids riding ponies around the park or racing with toy boats in a pool. As we all know, happiness comes from the little things.

The little house of insects in Bercy

THE PARC DE BERCY - A VILLAGE IN A CITY, A STREET IN A GARDEN Located to the south of the Parisian center, Bercy Park is ideal for romantic dates. Here, you can relax among the flowers and trees while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of an “ancient village” filled with busy restaurants and stores. I want to lead you around a lovely old vineyard where they have produced the wine for many restaurants in Paris since the 19th century. Apart from Montmartre hill, Bercy is one of few places to produce exquisite Le vin de Paris. Not many people know about this red wine as it is traditionally made in limited quantities. Follow the straight grape arbors, stroll down to the garden of spices. Don’t forget to observe the tiny wooden bee houses, all together drawing a peaceful painting in the heart of the bustling Paris. From Bercy park, people usually walk through a small bridge across Joseph Kessel road to visit Bercy Village. The village has been a large store of famous wine and strong alcohol for a long time. Historians believe that trading has gone on in this area for 6000 years. The European style warehouse has been well restored but some traces such as railways or cemeteries have been intentionally left. Nowadays, Bercy Village remains busy with pretty shops selling books, icecream, cosmetic, paintings, and more. Indeed, it is a perfect place for shopaholics as stores open while other shops in Paris close on Sunday. After long walks, stop at a small restaurant in the village and enjoy dinner with cocktails. The distinct festive atmosphere in Bercy Village will bring you more excitement. Further information: Stations near Parc de Bercy: Cour Saint-–milion (No 14); Bercy (No 14 or 6)
