Transportation

As Vietnam continues to become an increasingly developed country, new forms of transportation are being created to encourage interconnectedness.

Intersections in major cities look like this at any given part of the day. This particular photo is from Hanoi.
Busses in Vietnam are basically the same as busses in America. The primary difference is how many people ride at one time. Riders almost always exceed the number of seats available and people are frequently forced to sit on the ground.
Due to high levels of air pollution. Almost every person in Vietnam wears a face mask when driving a bike.
A fellow American teacher and I preparing to drive motorbikes for the first time during our trip to Ninh Binh.
It is very common to see people driving with animals and large objects (such as refridgerators and pallets of materials) on their bike.
This photo shows the parking lot of my school on an average day. Motorbikes are the main method of transportation for students. No youth owns a car.
This bike is the main method of transportation I use to get around. It has to be refilled with gas about every three days and is prone have engine troubles.
On this first ride I was so scared of falling off or getting into an accident I hugged my driver from behind for half our trip.
