Sailing Down the Mekong River Virtual Vacations

Let’s take a peaceful cruise up the Mekong River in Vietnam. Along the way, we’ll admire the scenery and see local life as it unfolds along the sloping banks. Imagine a river threaded by moments of rural life: a ferry shuttling people from one side of the river to the other, children play along the water’s edge, couples fishing from small boats, and farmers tending to their mango trees. We’ve created these audio tours to transport you to inspiring destinations around the world, even when you can’t be there in person. So settle in, close your eyes, and imagine yourself setting sail.

Note that each virtual vacation begins with a short breathing exercise to help you come into the moment and make the most of your virtual vacation.
