There's poetry in your description. How long have you lived there, and if you don't mind me asking, what do you do? I'm an English teacher, and I love it. I love everything about language.
You really ought to write an article about Saigon. I think there is a different perspective on places that you live vs. places you visit.
How long have you been living in Asia? The closest I've come is teaching in New Zealand, where 95% of my students were Asian (most of them Chinese). It was an eyeopener. The culture is intrinsically different from Western countries. At first I found it very difficult, but gradually I began to appreciate the subtleties.
