 How long did you live in Hanoi?
 This is my first overseas posting and I have stayed here for nearly 4 years.
What do you like about living in Hanoi?
The 4 seasons! Especially the cool weather during autumn/winter, however the July to August summer period is quite unbearable. That’s when I reconsider my fondness for Hanoi
What do you dislike about living in Hanoi?
I particularly dislike the air and noise pollution caused by all the motorbikes and cars on the streets. The noises start so early in the morning, I used to get woken up by it. It was so annoying especially when I need to catch up on my sleep.
