Hello, today I would like to answer your question. Ho Chi Minh City, where I certainly like the feel of the night is a crowded place, with millions of people living and working here. The streets are always busy, especially during rush hour. Near my house, there is a big shopping mall like E-mark. That’s always full of people, especially on weekends. Personally, I don’t really like crowded places because there can be noises and street food. I prefer quite an area where I can relax and think carefully. However, I know that some people enjoy being in crowded places because they feel more energetic and excited when surrounded by others. The last time I was in a very crowded place was last weekend when I went to my girlfriend’s house in District 1. It was packed with people in the rows. At that time, I felt a peak over the helmets by the noises and the last crowd. Like in Ho Chi Minh City, it can be busy, but the energy and opportunities is offers make it a play. The work is experiencing. That’s in my speaking, however, a good day. Experiencing is the best.
