Soulful Sapa

Well it’s time to leave the big smoke behind and head inland to explore the natural beauty this country has to plate up. Sapa is a must see for any nature lover. Tucked away in the north-west corner of Vietnam is a bowl full of iconic rice paddy vistas and forest walks. The local population is occupied by five main ethnic groups that have lived off the land for years.

I found myself drawn to a small eatery in the main street of Cau May Street called Moment Romantic Restaurant. The traditional Vietnamese food was the best I’d had during my culinary journey. How had I not heard more about this food heaven? I was lucky enough to meet the owner and found that they did not have an online presence.

I thought it would be remiss of me not to offer my help and create a web page to help promote the restaurant. With my online skills and the owners culinary genius we could generate much more business for them. All it took was an hour of my time, and we had a webpage and social media plan in place.  

I feel that travel presents a unique opportunity to learn as well as teach different skills. People from all over the world have their own unique skills that if you just asked, they are often very accommodating to teach. It is also a great to be able to give back and engage with the local culture. Make your trip meaningful.
