I put my sketchbook and pens into a small plastic bag I got when I bought a seaweed flavoured snack and some mango gummies because I didn’t want to wear a backpack just to carry a sketchbook and pens. I didn’t end up drawing anything and walked along the beach for two hours until I got hungry.

Many hours later I wanted to head to a cafe and draw a little so I began looking through my room. Turns out I put it down and didn’t pick it back up, never to realise until I needed it. I started digging through my already fading memories of the day to find where I might have left it.
I’ve been resistant to speak any English throughout this trip preferring to blunt force my way through better Vietnamese, but as the restaurant picked up I could only find English coming out of my mouth. It wasn’t until they confirmed they had it did I speak Vietnamese again.
