Finally managed to get a group photo of the people that i have come to know for the past 5 months or so - our work client, BaoViet Life(BVL) Insurance. This was taken last week Friday at a Vietnamese dinner in Bat Ninh, an hour's drive from Hanoi city.
The deputy CEO of BVL chartered a mini bus and took the 23 of us there. Food was so so but it was the first time i had beer with ice. Not too bad considering the hot and humid weather...at least you won't get drunk that easily! We were treated to Vietnamese singing and dance, very 'local'..and the funny thing was the restaurant had some extra 'Western' dishes served to the 3 of us 'foreigner'....hilarious!!!!
We cheered beer many times that night that i thought i would piss my pants whenever i downed a glass, but i was glad i went along... to get out of the city with a group of people. I thought that night improved our work relationship. Well....may be not that close as they still think us as charging them too expensive to use our software :-)
Anyway......
Here we go! See if you can spot the 3 'foreigners'...hahahahaha...i bet if you don't know me you might think i am one of the locals.... The lady (Laetitia) is the principal consultant for this project (which is my mentor since i joined this company, nice lady) and the guy (Gerry) is my colleague looking after the IT side(soft-spoken, nice guy too). Both of them from Ozzy - Sunshine Coast(Brisbane) and Melbourne repectively. Laetitia's originally from South Africa; Gerry's wifey is Vietnamese and he can speak Vietnamese. (duh..!!!). The deputy CEO (Dr. Quong, PhD Dr..) is standing third from the left. Me?! Me?! How about me?! If you can't tell which one i am then i guess you are either blinded by my smile (ceh wah..) or i am becoming more and more like a Vietnamese *phụ nữ !
Well my friends, as usual...have a nice Friday night and weekend!
'til then....
*tạm biệt!
*chào mừng - Welcome
*phụ nữ - lady
*tạm biệt - Goodbye
