@traveluncomfortably: The first time I walked out of the airport in Vietnam, I felt like I was on TMZ. Walk out of the airport in Ho Chi Minh City during Tết, and you’ll see what I mean. A massive amount of people. People holding signs, camera lights flashing, people crying. Obviously they aren’t there for you. But that’s as close as you’ll get to a Hollywood red-carpet experience. I’ve never seen anything like it. Duc asked me, “They don’t do this in the U.S.?” You’re lucky if you get one family member to pick you up at the curb. In Vietnam, whole families come to see you off and pick you up. It’s an experience. It showed me immediately how loving and caring Vietnamese people are. Family matters — they make sure you know it. #VietnamTravel #HoChiMinhCity #TetHoliday #TravelCulture #TravelUncomfortably
Definitely feel nervous everytime I walk out those doors 😂😂 feels like the spotlight is on me for real! So many people/families.

I was lucky to be invited to go with my friend. His family met us at the airport with food in hand and lots of hugs and smiles. It was such a wonderfully warm and happy experience. 🥰

I will miss this when the new airport opens. It’s jarring the first time to experience such chaos but it’s also like such a good introduction to Saigon and Vietnam in general. Busy, chaotic and yet still there’s warmth, love, and care.

It is Until you have to go back without your mom.. the one who made sure I fell in love with my maternal roots.. went back for her 1st death anniversary.. realizing she’s not waiting on the other side or is on the phone with her grand daughter making sure I got there ok. Instead it’s your neice’s family .. it’s the first time being able to grieve with my older brothers and family…

In my parents' home country in Trinidad, the old airport had a "waving gallery" on the second floor, overlooking the tarmac. I remember those days when the whole family would be at the airport for you.
When the government built the newer airport, a "waving gallery" was no longer considered because passengers would be using the jetways to board, instead of walking across the tarmac.
