More than two decades have passed since the Cold War climaxed between the Soviet Union and the United States.

During Phuong's first month here, we can temporarily consider it "peaceful". The rumor was that there were forest ghosts that ate people...
It is my pleasure to welcome you to Lang Son! The natural world has created an incredible "beauty" that can also be "brutal" where humans live among wild mountains and forests.
