re: Ho Chi Minh City, VietnamNick Wqrigley Laura, so glad to see and read about your experience and work. I think it sounds quite professional and organised and sure it was a success at the w/e workshop. Your writing makes one feel a part of the experience and almost like being there. Good luck with the project and happy travels. Lol, Nick
