A Day in Hội An – More Than Just Beautiful

Morning

• Cycle through the quiet lanes of Tra Que vegetable village
• Start your day with the scent of fresh herbs and the rhythm of local life. Join a farmer in the field – dig, water, harvest – not for show, but for real.
• Enjoy morning tea with an 82-year-old local woman
• Step into her wooden house, sip tea brewed the old-fashioned way, and hear personal memories of Hội An during wartime – soft, real, unforgettable.

Midday

• Cook a home-style meal with a local family
• No aprons, no stage, no demo. Just honest ingredients, gentle laughter, and a kitchen that smells like memories.
• Share lunch at the family table
• Sit down as a guest, not a tourist. Stories flow as naturally as the fish sauce on the rice.

Afternoon

• Join a lantern-making or silk block printing workshop
• Create with your hands. Learn from artisans who carry the spirit of Hội An in their craft. Take your work home – a handmade souvenir with your soul in it.
• Sit quietly by the riverbank and write
• One sentence. One thought. One thing you learned today.
• Seal it in a small wooden box – we’ll mail it to you three months later.
• A future letter from your present self.

You’ll leave not just with a souvenir – but with a story only you can tell.
