Vietnam Is Awesome: Discover Awesome Experiences

Welcome to the Vietnam Is Awesome Podcast. We'll help you discover the real Vietnam with awesome experiences.
I'm Niall Mackay, your host. I've lived in Vietnam since 2016, and I'm the host of a Vietnam podcast, A comedian, and now a brand ambassador for Vietnam Is Awesome.
I came to Vietnam for a two-week vacation and was immediately taken by the beauty, friendliness, energy, and even all the quirks of Vietnam. I came back in 2016 with my wife for just six weeks, and six years later we're still here.
In this episode, I'm talking to Lilly from Valley Village Phu Quoc. Valley Village Phu Quoc is a small family resort located in the middle of the jungle, which focuses on mindfulness and well-being.
Lilly is German, Vietnamese and has been living on the island since the beginning of 2022. Prior to that, she worked in marketing for TikTok, but during the pandemic, she realized like many others how important it is to take care of yourself and your mental health.
In 2021, she quit her nine-to-five job at TikTok to return to her roots in Vietnam to create a yoga and wellbeing hub at Valley Village Phu Quoc.
In this episode, we're going to be talking about why Phu Quoc has grown as a destination so much and why travelers choose to go there. The best attractions to visit, and what she suggests first-time travelers do when they visit Phu Quoc.
And also any hidden gems on the island that you can't miss!
We also talk about a handful of unique brands, bars, and organizations in Phu Quoc dedicated to travelers including:
The Rabbit Hole Irish Bar
The Phu Quoc Sailing Club
The Cheeky Traveler English Pub
Enjoy!
