And Vietnam Continues…

My Kiva fellowship has officially ended. I returned to the US two weeks ago and still have plenty of processing to do. The only thing I am certain of is I have yet to understand what it all means down the road. In some ways it seems a dream had ended. But the vivid memories of specific moments that made it worthwhile spring me back into reality. I can’t thank you enough for all the support from friends, family, Kiva Friends, my MFI, and the greater community. Below is a clip of one of my last motorbike rides: returning to my apartment after visiting the Hanoi Hilton (Hoa Lo Prison). It was used to hold American troops prisoner during the war. It was quite an inter-cultural experience as I am a Vietnamese-French-American. Thank you Kiva community and keep doing what you do!
