Vietnamese adventurer to share travel experiences in Europe
Vu Dang Quang Tung, nicknamed Michael Jo, will interact with other adventure lovers in Vietnam on Saturday about his journeys across Europe.
His travels are described in his photo book that has generated a lot of interest in the country's libraries over the last few days.
The photo book, entitled Jo Du Ky – Chau Au 30 ngay dem (Jo's Traveller's Notes-Europe 30 Days and Nights), published by the Youth Publishing House, tells about Tung's rich experiences and the difficulties he faced during his 30-day trip covering several European countries such as France, Germany, Hungary, Austria, Italy and Spain. He faced several challenges in countries where he didn't know the language and the topography well.

The interaction will be held at the Goethe Institute situated at 56-58 Nguyen Thai Hoc Street in Ha Noi at 6.30pm, with the participation of Japanese lacquer artist Ando Saeko.
At the event, the Youth Publishing House will offer special discounts on all its books that are sold at the Goethe Institute.
According to the organisers, the event is expected to encourage the public to travel and explore new cultures, and to understand better the culture of the Vietnamese people when they are exploring new adventures.
An active member of the forum otofun.net that is dedicated to oto car lovers in Hanoi, Tung is known for his traveller's notes on his journeys in Bali (Indonesia), the Republic of Korea, Hong Kong, Laos and Japan.
