Vietnam Travel Podcast with Linh Nguyen

The Vietnam Travel Podcast with Linh Nguyen is about getting to know Vietnam slowly, the way a resident does. Vietnam's territory runs 1,650 km from north to south and narrows to 50 km at one point, so a short journey can shift from highland forest to delta water and from monsoonal rain to tropical heat.Over the series, Linh Nguyen covers a broad arc: Hanoi's old streets and the Red River Valley, the central highlands around Da Lat, Can Tho in the Mekong Delta, and the limestone landscapes of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park. These are places with different climates, languages and religious communities.The show unfolds in connected moves: each place is given time, then revisited as the season changes. Northern monsoonal rains arrive from May to September; the tropical south stays warm. By paying attention to those shifts, the podcast builds a fuller picture of Vietnam than a short trip could.Linh Nguyen lives in Vietnam and stays for two years, moving between

ABOUT THIS SHOW

The Vietnam Travel Podcast with Linh Nguyen is about getting to know Vietnam slowly, the way a resident does. Vietnam's territory runs 1,650 km from north to south and narrows to 50 km at one point, so a short journey can shift from highland forest to delta water and from monsoonal rain to tropical heat.Over the series, Linh Nguyen covers a broad arc: Hanoi's old streets and the Red River Valley, the central highlands around Da Lat, Can Tho in the Mekong Delta, and the limestone landscapes of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park. These are places with different climates, languages and religious communities.The show unfolds in connected moves: each place is given time, then revisited as the season changes. Northern monsoonal rains arrive from May to September; the tropical south stays warm. By paying attention to those shifts, the podcast builds a fuller picture of Vietnam than a short trip could.Linh Nguyen lives in Vietnam and stays for two years, moving between
