OH MY GOD they have such differant lifestyles then we do. They look so much differant in their clothing styles. I was not expecting that. The thing i did expect was how their markets were set up. I visulaized that in my head. Vietnam is amzing!!

Jillian Perry- I noticed that their clothing is very different from ours. Personally it is nothing that i wouold wear. I expected there to be alot of farm land which appears to be located in North Central Vietnam. Also, Northeast Vietnam seems to be the less fortunate section of the country.

It doesn't look as nice as I have thought. It was mostly forest as I expected. I did'nt expect it to be so different from our life style.

Brittany Nutter- As I looked through the pictures I realized that everything was a lot cleaner then I thought it was going to be. I didn't expect to see people so happy and smiling. I didn't realize that some of the places in South Vietnam were so beautiful. I also didn't realize how many people were actually living there and how many children were there.

Vietnam looks sinilar to what I expected it to look like. For the most part the country is rural and not very populous. As with the majority of Asian nations it's landscape is loaded with mountains.
Although there are few cities they are very busy and lively with markets and crowded streets.

I thought Vietnam would be so much different with more land and open areas. The food and their clothes was similar to what I thought. The sights that they have are prettier than I had imagined.

I think it is a beautiful country and it has a very beautful way of life. I think they have a more simple existance and a peaceful way of life. i was not expecting them to be so peaceful and beautiful. I expected it to be more third world.

We found the culture of Vietnam to be very different from other cultures. Their clothing is completely different from the US. A lot of their activities revolve around water and beaches. This country seems less fortunate in some parts.

Vietnam is different than what i expected in a way. I knew that it was somewhat mountainous and i knew that they grew rice. but the way they set up there markets and what they wear is very different from what i thought. Like having a floating house is very different. Vietnam is very poor.

The images are not much different than my expectations. They are similar because I assumed that Vietnam was a rural Asian country with jungles and that is what the pictures showed.

Vietnam is similar to what we expected. We had a pretty good idea of what the land looked like and how their lifestyle was. However, we did not expect to see them wearing clothing exactly like that.

I notice that their land is very diverse. Some parts are really pretty and beautuful whereas other parts look different. Northeast Vietnam seems to be the poorer section of the country. Central Vietnam has much more landmarks. Most of the parts in Vietnam do seem peaceful. I did not know anything about Vietnam so I learned alot from these pictures.

Hoyle - They wear weird hats. Everyone has a buffalo, they have no industry and it's extremely underdeveloped. It's just like i expected. Why are all the old people so creepy looking?

Erin Willis - The country is basically how i expected..there is practically no industry and it's all farming with buffalos i guess. I don't think I'd ever want to live there. Also they all look creepily happy ..which is weird. I feel fortunate to live in America because other parts of the world are so underdevelped.

It seems that the Victimizes are more in tune with their history and culture then we are. They seem to live a life that is more in tune with the land and the people surrounding them.

After looking at the pictures they are mostly what i expected Vietnam to look like, the people, clothing, land, etc. Although i did expect the pictures to look old and war-like for some reason, i pictured it to look more like war scenes.

Their country is horrible its like seing s bunch of the NY City hobos all bunched together with nicer boxes. I don't know if colgate sells toothpaste to Vietnam but it lloks like their is a good market from it theese people look like they have been sellin their teeth to the tooth fairy for sum Vietnameese grass. thier food and market establishements would not pass a board of health visit which may explain thier lack of health and how their old people look like shrivled raisins. thier soldiers have crappy uniforms and they know that we would anhiliate them in a war so over all their country is pretty much one of the worst ones that I've seen ever it's horrible just like I excpected.

While looking at these pictures we were very surprised of what the children do in their spare time, like riding buffalos and crossing bamboo bridges. We expected Vietnam to not be as beautiful as it was. We noticed that all of the people living there dress totally different than people in America. In the pictures we saw floating houses on lakes and in America we have never seen anything like that. We noticed how hard people work, like the man carrying the heavy loads.

Darren Doucette-The Vietnam people are always outdoors and it seems like there always working untill the sun goes down, They live on boats which is not that much different from the American people. There clothing is different and they do not have that many motor vehicals. Vietnam is different in a few ways.

The house's are really cool, is interesting how they are so elaborate, and they are made out of simple materials. These pictures show a lot about their culture. They also display vivid images of the landscape and how amazing it is with its colorful country sides and huge mountain tops.
