🙏🏻 Volunteer activities at the end of the journey - sowing a seed of blessing for the new year.
In the last days of Tet, they spend time on a pilgrimage to visit an orphanage or a local organic green center. Here, each family can give a small gift, a lucky money envelope, but the greatest meaning is the warm presence, the blessing sent to the lucky intimate lives.
This volunteer action not only brings joy to the children, but is also an opportunity for each of us to let go of the fatigue of the old year, sow more virtue, and open a new year with a lighter heart - brighter and more beautiful.
Vietnamese people still believe that:
“One benefit at the beginning of the year - a peaceful year.” Just a smile you give, a handshake, a simple New Year greeting... is enough to resolve the incomplete things in your heart, and for you to return with a heart full of positive energy. That is the most sacred gift that a spring trip can bring.
✈️ Transfer to Da Nang International Airport for your onward journey.
