After 1975 it became a patriotic symbol. 🇻🇳 blue on blue as you emerge from your accommodation in the morning, you are confronted with the realization that the day started much earlier for others is this the same expression above as below?you learn to lock your bag pockets and secure your bag to something sturdy when you travel off the beaten path. when i’m having a coffee and reading, it’s nice to know my bag is going to be difficult to snag…
Interesting about the scarf.
