April 6, 2023
Well-deserved break
"I'd been working for 3-4 months, and when a friend suggested this holiday, I jumped at it"
Destination Vietnam
Chaitra spent 10 days exploring Vietnam with her gal pals
Beach babe
"I love the sea and spent much of my time by the beach, or in the pool"
"When I shared my holiday pictures, some people tried moral policing me about my outfits"
Culture police to the fore
Don't give a damn
"I am an actor and I wear these kind of clothes. I don't see the need to hide myself"
Mix of hot and cold
Chaitra spent most of her trip in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi; the climate she says went from Chennai sultry to Ooty cold
Loved the war memorial
"I went to the Vietnam war museum. I got so emotional reading about how the war unfolded"
Amazed how Vietnam was rebuilt
"It was disturbing to read about the war, but also amazing how they then rebuilt the nation"
Biggest takeaway
"My biggest takeaway from the trip is the cruelty unleashed in war and the strength of people to overcome it"
Not done with Vietnam yet
"I absolutely loved the trip and don't think I did justice to it. I will return to Vietnam soon"
