Vietnamese days in Belgium



On the occasion of celebrating VN's Independence day (2nd of September), the embassy of Vn in Belgium has organised (together with the cooperation of Flandre Occidental government-Gent) "Vietnamese days in Belgium" that has lasted for almost one month (the expo is now in Liege). During this time, there are many activities and expo to advertise VN as a travel destination.

Yesterday, they organised an evening traditional music and fashion show in St Michel theater, which for the first time quite organised. The event was for free, and there were around 600 people attended. Most of the artists were professional dancers that graduated from National Dance school and conservatory of VN. In short, it was very nice.

BTW, the girl who is the flyer is a Vnese girl from Gent, and to be honest, all the Vnese here wondered where the hell they found this rather ugly Vnese girl to put on the flyer (as if there were no other Vnese girls who are cute and pretty). I found out she lives in Gent, and apparently some Belgian guys in Gent chose her. When most of the Vnese male students saw the flyer, they went "OMG, where did they find this girl?, she does not look like Vnese", and they tried to convince each other that she is NOT Vnese. Oh well...
