Vietnam is one of the most hyped travel destinations right now, especially among backpackers.

A few years ago, I visited Vietnam for the first time and travelled across the country. Since then, I’ve returned several times.

In this travel documentary, I wanted to show Vietnam the way I experienced it — the cities, the energy, the food, the chaos, the beauty, and also the things that don’t always make it into travel videos.

I also compare it with places like Thailand and ask a simple question:

Is the hype around Vietnam actually justified?

This project combines documentary editing, storytelling, voice-over, research and travel footage into one complete piece.

I designed and developed this interactive aviation chronicle for Southern Line.

Reimagining the golden age of 1930s transatlantic airmail meant uniting Art Deco travel aesthetics with precision cartography. Animating an orthographic globe projection that guides visitors through five historical flight stages from Toulouse to Santiago, while syncing live wireless telegraph transcripts, vintage tariff tables, and collectible luggage tags along the route, transformed archival navigation logs into an immersive narrative expedition.😊 🙌
