New Year...

Well, I haven't posted recently since there simply wasn't much to post. I had a broken Airconditioning in my apartment which made living there a bit of a mess. It only took 6 weeks to fix it. My landlord is a real a...hole. It's sad, that you cannot even really talk to him, but well, this means, that the rental contract here for this apartment will not be extended, which will cost him again some extra money.
Anyway, here in Vietnam, you clearly can recognise, that Tet (Lunar New Year) is coming. The lights have been installed everywhere and people are driving even more crazy as usual. But otherwise everything is as last year.

Here a few impressions from frenetic Nguyen Hue street from last year. It's always crowded and always somehow very scenic and lively:

During christmas time I was back home in Germany and a few days in Finland. Unfortunately it wasn't very cold. Germany was up to 16 degrees and only in Finland there was a bit of snow and minus degrees. See a few impressions here:

It was of course a beautiful yet too short holiday. 

Still I'm still somehow enjoying HCMC even though there are obstacles to climb everyday, and you think, that with a little bit of common sense, everything would be a bit easier...

Anyway, there will be changes soon. We will see what the future brings :)
