Do you remember when they met? When did we have brunch together that day when we met? Was it 2007… or maybe it was 2006? I know! Check our old email messages! There must’ve been an email about it. There we stood at the wine store, pacing back and forth poking at our iPhones trying [...]

There are many people who cross our paths in our lives. And sometimes we get to cross paths once. Twice, if we’re lucky. Some people call it serendipity. Others call it fate. Larry and Tim rode the same San Francisco Muni bus to work in the mornings and although they saw each other on the [...]

My first visit to Vietnam was with my father 11 years ago. It was his first time returning to the country since war drove him and my mother away from their own home. I was shocked at the streets of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) because it was extremely crowded with motorbikes and cars with [...]
