Hanoi brief

Two days in Hanoi consisted of my introduction to the managing director and the team. Greg and all the staff members seem really nice and I am happy having been offered the opportunity to work for this renowned and professional company. I was introduced to several basic procedures by Janine, my colleague, who I had already met in Germany a couple of months before. In the evenings we went out for dinner and a cocktail party at the Press Club. I was welcomed in Vietnam with all comfort one can imagine, hotel rooms and personal transfers, services I had not had before when travelling individually on the backpack. Anyways, most important is that people are nice. In about six weeks the high season will start. I hope that I will be ready for my task until then and I will do a good job “có đi có lại…” as the Vietnamese say. I have to thank Greg and Janine so much for welcoming me so friendly and for them being helpful with any matter.
