3 years in Vietnam and still amused about skills of the Vietnamese motor bikers! Sometimes bike is loaded so much that it looks like magic and the whole thing is floating in the air!
My first cultural shock was when i was following one farmer in Muine, who was transporting chickens. I was following him and guessing how on earth he managed to tight around 60 chickens on his motorbike! My surprise was even more when one of the chickens, lift her head and start to staring at me. Till that moment i was sure that they were dead.....
That was 3 years ago, by now I already managed to help my friends to move their houses on motorbikes, bring sleeping mattresses from shop to home, transport suit cases and boxes that was bigger than bike, everyday travel around the city with the dog on the motorbike and still always amused about skills of the Vietnamese motor bikers. Miracles of their transportation skills is something that the nation can be proud of!
Any way for everyone who lives in Vietnam you know :)
