Vietnam Is Awesome: Discover Awesome Experiences

This is the brand new Vietnam Is Awesome podcast. We will help you discover the real Vietnam with awesome experiences. I'm Niall Mackay your host and I've lived in Vietnam since 2016. I'm the host of the well-known show, A Vietnam Podcast, comedian and brand ambassador for Vietnam Is Awesome. I came to Vietnam for a two week vacation in 2015 and was immediately taken by the beauty, friendliness, energy, and even the quirks of Vietnam.
I came back in 2016 with my wife for just six weeks. And more than six years later, we're still here.
I'll be talking to people from all over Vietnam, working in tourism, bars, restaurants, hotels, nightlife, and more. To share with you experiences that prove, Vietnam Is Awesome. And the first episode I talked to Lily from Valley Village Phu Quoc. Valley Village Phu Quoc is a small family result located in the middle of the jungle, which focuses on mindfulness and wellbeing.
A trend well established in pleases like Bali and now growing in Vietnam. Lily is a German Vietnamese who has been living on the island since the beginning of 2022. Prior to that. She worked in marketing for Tik Tok, but during the pandemic, she realized like many others how important it is to take care of yourself and your mental health.
In 2021, she decided to quit. Oh, nine to five job at Tik Tok to go back to her roots in Vietnam. And to create a yoga and wellbeing hub at Valley Village Phu Quoc. In the upcoming first episode, we talk about life on the island. Why Phu Quoc has grown as a destination so much. And why travelers choose to go there?
She also shares with you the best attractions to visit and hidden gems on the island, not to miss. The Vietnam Is Awesome podcast is available wherever you get podcasts.
