A
Miracle
Worker
in
the
Nic
of
Time
An
adventure
traveler
I
have
always
been,
but
now
as
an
octogenarian,
I
found
myself
somewhat
apprehensive
about
traveling
solo
in
Vietnam.
On
the
advice
of
an
acquaintance,
only
two
weeks
before
"lift
off",
I
reached
out
to
Zicasso
Travel
who
put
me
in
touch
with
Sodha
Travel
where
Allison
Sodha,
travel
expert
in
South
Asia
custom
tours,
designed
a
15-day
itinerary
with
guide
and
driver
that
covered
highlights
of
Hanoi
in
the
north
to
Saigon
in
the
south.
Recently
returned,
I
have
only
the
most
glowing
comments
of
what
a
delightful
and
informative
trip
it
was.
I
soon
realized
that
the
Vietnamese
are
some
of
the
most
hospitable,
caring
folk
I
have
ever
encountered.
All
arrangements
worked
smoothly
and
my
guides
in
each
location
were
most
friendly
and
efficient,
informative
and
caring.
In
fact,
my
guide
in
Saigon
invited
me
to
spend
my
last
day
with
their
family
in
the
suburbs,
a
special
opportunity
to
view
the
life
of
a
Vietnamese
family
from
the
inside
out.
The
hotel
Au
Lac
Charner
in
Saigon
was
a
jewel
of
a
boutique
accommodation
with
rooftop
swimming
pool
and
bar,
and
a
breakfast
each
morning
that
was
varied
and
tasty.
The
concierge
could
not
have
been
more
pleasant
and
helpful,
greeting
me
by
name
upon
my
return
from
sight-seeing
each
day,
and
offering
me
an
iced
ginger-lemon
tea
to
refresh
myself.
Thank
you
Allison
Sodha
for
knowing
exactly
what
would
suit
my
needs
...
just
in
the
nic
of
time
for
me
to
enjoy
a
beautiful
trip
through
Vietnam!
