Adolescent

I have recently discovered my inner middle school self is alive and well. As soon as I arrived in Vietnam, I noticed signs with words like phuc, dic, and hung on them. It didn't take long before my brother confessed he'd been noticing the same thing. We began making a list of words.

Sometimes we were frustrated they weren't in the right order, and wanted to rearrange them, but we found some fun combinations like hung lo, hung phat, tu phat, bich sin, long phuc, thinh phat, song long and cat tok, which means hairdresser.
