UNIQUE HANOI
I moved to Hanoi three months ago from the United States and each day is still a new adventure filled with special and lessons.
The streets of this bustling city with its intoxicating sights, smells and sounds create a perfect recipe for a change in lifestyle for to Hanoi.
The outdoor markets are the pulse of Hanoi, providing a riveting shopping experience as well as a look into the traditional Vietnamese . The women who run the meat, vegetable, and fruit stands are at persuading customers to buy their goods.

UNIQUE HANOI
(cont.)
The women are the of their families. Shopping for groceries is an important activity because it later transforms into a meal that brings the family together.
A motorbike ride or a walk around the city creates an opportunity to adjust to the chaotic, yet natural flow of the narrowed-street traffic.
I've learned to not take the excessive honking of and cars personally. In the US, it is considered rude to beep your horn unless one truly needs to, but here in Hanoi, it seems that beeping is necessary and acts as a safety precaution while driving.
I still clench my fists each time I cross the street because of the never ending waves of motorbikes coming from all directions.
Hanoi delights me in its ability to offer both the old and the new. On the one hand, Hanoi still holds on to traditional Vietnamese ways of life-its Vietnamese cuisine, family values, and historic Buddhist temples. These things are what make Hanoi so .

THE BEATLES
In the 1960s, The Beatles were probably the famous pop group in the whole world. Since then, there have a great many groups that have achieved enormous fame, so it is perhaps difficult now to imagine how sensational The Beatles were at the time. They were four boys from the north of and none of them had any training in music. They started by performing and recording songs black Americans and they had some success with these songs, then they writing their own songs and that was when they became really popular. The Beatles changed pop music. They were the first group to achieve great success from songs they had written themselves. After that it became common for groups and singers to write their own . The Beatles did not have a long career. Their first hit record was in 1963 and they split up 1970. They stopped doing live performances in 1966 because it had become too dangerous for them their fans were so excited they surrounded them and tried to take their clothes as souvenirs! However, today some of their songs remain as as they were when they first came out. Throughout the world, many people can sing part of a Beatles song if you ask them.

TRADITIONAL TET PREFERRED BY EVERYONE IN VIET NAM
I am Choi Yi Seob. I have been in Ha Noi for nearly five years. My wife and I enjoyed two Tets in Ha Noi and two others in South Korea. This year, we will stay here. My wife – a traditional Vietnamese woman and myself often go together every year to the flower market to buy peach blossom, a kumquat tree and many flowers to decorate our house. I have learned how to cook Vietnamese traditional dishes; however, I have to admit that this is difficult and takes time to do well. Nem (spring rolls) is my favourite dish. I think Tet is really a traditional custom and Viet Nam should keep it. It is better to celebrate it according to the lunar calendar rather than solar because every country has its own traditional customs. Tradition has to be the pride of the nation. In our country, Lunar New Year, known as Seollal (also spelled Seolnal) is one of South Korea's major holidays. Preparation for Seollal has similarities to the Tet of Viet Nam. The day before Seollal, family members gather to prepare the dishes required for the ancestral rites offerings. These must not only taste good but also look perfect. While Viet Nam has banh chung (rice square cake), nem (spring rolls), xoi (sticky rice), gio lua (pork-pie), South Korean has tteokguk (rice cake soup) and 20 other dishes such as wild vegetables, Korean style pancakes, various types of fish, japchae (noodles with meat and vegetables) and many more (according to Mr. Choi Yi Seob, Korean, Ha Noi).
