Colloque - Femmes vietnamiennes : créativité et engagement : Parcours d'une femme autonome de six jambes
I want to tell about the journey of 21 years of writing books and 16 years of living independently in a big city of Vietnam. With 21 years of writing, I have published 5 books. In addition, I am also an independent social activist with the outstanding project of bringing my fourth work called: "Believe in Kindness" to give to inmates. The project started at the end of 2018 and has now reached 19 prisons across Vietnam. 16 years of independent living in HCM City, when I was a woman who could not walk on her own, pronunciation was very difficult. However, with my steadfastness and unceasing efforts, so far, people have called me by the nickname "Six-legged Angel". I travel around Vietnam alone to spread life motivation to many different audiences. Above are the main topics I want to present in the upcoming workshop with Mrs. Bui Tran Phuong.
