I'm Ngu(Opi), I am from the Tay ethnic minority in a small commune of Ha Giang province. I’m working with 4 of my friends, who are also from the Red Dao and Hmong ethnic minorities. We are building a project about protecting culture and developing responsible tourism. Right now Ha Giang is one of the provinces that is developing the most with tourism every year, and getting more and more tourists. For that reason, our project wants to establish a connection between tourists and the local people. This will benefit both of them: The travelers will have the opportunity to discover the Northern area of Vietnam from the inside with all its traditions and way of life, and at the same time the local people get more possibilities of income. These local people are not sponsored or working with travel agencies. We chose them because we thought they were welcoming, open-minded, and motivated about sharing their culture.
