Zing  shared Bui Quang Thuy’s first experience of skydiving (Travel Blogger, Hanoi). Fresh experience I happened to know about this activity through groups on social networks. After learning more about skydiving, I felt very curious and excited, determined to once conquer the sky. Previously, I only knew thrilling games in amusement parks, but never tried a more advanced subject like this. More carefully, I asked a few more people who were already paragliding before signing up. Unlike the thrilling games I have played before, skydiving has a higher level of difficulty and also gives me a very different feeling, which is difficult to describe in words. Before the day of joining, I was excited and prepared for this challenge of myself. However, when I stood in front of the paraglider for the first time, I was still a little nervous. The place I chose to dance is the top of Vien Nam mountain in Hoa Binh province, located right at the border between the

Two goals inside the opening six minutes from Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliot put the hosts into a commanding position from the off. A stunning strike from England full-back Trent Alexander Arnold which arrowed into the top corner gave Liverpool a three-goal lead in the 28th minute before Roberto Firmino got in on the act with a fourth three minutes later. Not done there, Liverpool had a fifth before the interval, with Virgil van Dijk heading home from a corner — the first time the Reds had netted five in the first half of a league game since 1958. Chris Mepham’s own goal had the visitors staring at the prospect of an embarrassing drubbing, with such worries heightening after a close-range finish from Firmino and substitute Fabio Carvalho’s volley. After Diaz headed in the ninth, Liverpool had five minutes to become the first side to score 10 goals in a Premier League match. But despite some late scares, Bournemouth did just enough to avoid suffering that ignominy. Soccer Foot

The exhibition is held in Vietnam Women’s Museum. Photo courtesy of the museum There isn’t a Vietnamese woman who doesn’t feel loved and proud when she puts on a graceful ao dai. And perhaps, there is no better place to tell stories about Ao Dai as meaningful and inspiring as the Vietnam Women’s Museum in Hanoi. Towards the 92nd anniversary of the establishment of the Vietnam Women’s Union (October 20, 1930 – October 20, 2022) and responding to meaningful activities honoring the Ao Dai of the Vietnam Women’s Union, an exhibition highlighting 200 sets of Ao dai (traditional long dress) presented by 20 famous Vietnamese and foreign designers recently held at the Vietnam Women’s Museum, VNA reported Wednesday. Ao Dai has been made a default by the community as a typical costume representing Vietnamese culture. In popular languages like English, the phrase “Ao Dai” has no equivalent meaning.
