Ma Pi Leng is translated as “the nose of the house” in local language to say about how challenging this location is to reach for anyone. At the height of 2000 metters high compared to the sea level, its terrain is so steep with vertical mountains & deep valleys that the horse’s power can not overcome and they even die on the way – being illustrated as the horse’snose.
Ma Pi Leng Pass is around 20km long zigzaging up & down along high mountain slopes – the most difficult part of the Happiness Road to be built connecting Dong Van & Meo Vac district – two remote mountainous frontier districts of the country !In the passt, to construct this road part, thousands of workers & volunteers had to cling themselves on the cliffs to open every centemeter of the path. It was such a challenging terrain that many volunteers & workers lost their lives and took them 11 months to complete this part of the road.That’s why the pass of Ma Pi Leng is likened as the Great Wall of Vietnam.The Happiness Road & its amazing pass of Ma Pi Leng is a lively evidence of strong cooperation & great efforts among young volunteers & local ethnics in the country toward the nature’s obstacles.Thanks to their sacrifice & great contribution, the road was opened to make the gap shorter between the highlands & the lowlands of Ha Giang province, to bring happiness & more chances to develop for thousands of people in the region, and importantly to defense the nation’s territory.

I hope you havent't forgot us. If you have I have included a photo of us in attach file.I promised to e-mail you when we get back. Sorry for the delay but we had so much shit to sort out when we've got back home.
Thanks very much for giving us a tour of Hanoi. Without you two, we would of missed a hell of a lot of Hanoi which we never had the time to explore.
When we were in the south, we came across a lot of English and Irish backpackers that were heading to Hanoi and we've recomended you and the taxi driver Binh to them. I hope they contact you two when they get to Hanoi and give you business.
So so much had changed since I left Vietnam. Some changes are positive and a lot of negatives but people link yourself and Binh will keep up the traditions.
I hope that you will get this e-mail. If you do please reply.
Since we've came home, I've had so many ideas about starting a business venture in Vietnam and and hoping that you might want to be be part of the it.

Dear Ban,
Sorry for being late.
I tried to write you a letter several times, but I couldn't finish the letter. I don't know why.
I am still in winter vacation, so I have been very lazy, frankly speaking. And I miss you and the other good people I met in Vietnam. You cannot imagine how much it is!! As for our meeting, let's put it aside for my next trip, possibly that would be the coming August. At that time, we can have time to talk a lot about Vietnamese school system and other interesting things. Don't you think??
And I am so happy to know that you think my voice is tender in different songs... *^^*
By the way, how's it going with your new business? Is it going well? I'm sure you will be successful because you are quite ambitious and intelligent. You agree, Ban?? ^^
When my school starts, I cannot tell anything about Vietnam without talking about you to my students... I get impressed a lot, surely yu know that. Right?
I will attach the picture you took together in my next mail because my camera battery is out. Sorry about that!!
It's Saturday today. I wonder what you are doing at this moment in Vietnam when I am writing to you. Keep in touch often. OK?? ^^
Take care and be well & happy
Your friend,

Hello Mr Ban, What a surprise to hear from you and a good one. yes I do remember you quite well....as Black Dan? Is this right? It has been 5 years since I was in your country. a long time, but I remember how bright and funny you were and also how polite!!! So, have you a family to look after now? A wife and some beautiful children? I hope all is well with you and you have plenty of work to do. I am taking a break at my work as it is Christmas time here and everything stops and family get together. I know you have TET around the corner and I wish you much success and good fortune for the next year. Which animal will it be next year for TET, I wonder? And which year you born in? I am still working with flowers. Iam known as a florist and my job keeps me pretty busy. I enjoy it very much as I love to make beautiful things from flowers and stones, dried things from Mother Nature and sometimes with man made stuff as well. It is quite funny that you emailed me at this time as I have been thinking of coming over to Vietnam alot lately and may do next year sometime. I missed out on a few places I would love to go ( Hoi Ann), and re visit some places I have been to last time. Are you still a guide? All the best.
