Building



Since 203 we have build 3 buildings in Hoi An. 1 Restaurant & living. 1 Restaurant and at the moment (May & October 2012)1 house.
We have worked with 3 different contractors, painters, carpenters black smith, gardeners etc. We designed the buildings our self but later the design has been officially made by (government) architects!

Not only technical issues are the matter but also cultural ceremonies are an important part off buying land, starting the building process and opening a business.
Feng Shui is part off the Vietnamese cultural and certain positioning from doors, windows, stairs and other parts off the house could need special attention!

Have a look at our last building project 'Green Apple Land' which is scheduled from the 16th off May till November 2012.

Living in Vietnam

Go to: Green Apple Activities

Life is a very personal experience! The same if you decide to live abroad for example in Vietnam, Hoi An. Talk to 10 expats and you get 10 different answers.
Depending how you are your self you will experience your life in a certain way!
Living abroad has it’s challenges like another language, different culture! A very different perception about right and wrong, different level off education, general experiences in life etc!
A lot off people and up in another country by being on holiday and having a very good time! Living abroad is a different story and could bring you a hard landing in reality!
Like everywhere the big question is how much do you want to compromise?

                                                  tells you why he 'loves' Vietnam!

They say you come to Vietnam and understand a lot in a few minutes. The rest has got to be lived. They say whatever it was you were looking for, you will find here. They say there is a ghost in every house, and if you can make peace with him, he will stay quiet. Thomas Fowler The Quiet American!
