Moby - a boat Tom McClean - a 73-year-old former soldier - has spent 2 decades and 100,000 pounds on building a 20-metre boat in shape of a whale. He named it Mobi after "Mobi-Dick", the whale in Herman Meville's famous book. The voyage starts from a lake in Scotland to London, then to New York. When somebody asks him why he is doing it, he says, "Why not? It is better than sitting and watching TV".

Zoo's problems An Indonesia zoo had to close in 2016 after an elephant died. The zoo starved its animals. Now, it is under heavy criticism again when there is a video of a visitor flicking his cigarette into an orangutan’s living area. The primate picked up the cigarette and started smoking.

TV program Over the course of my life, I have been watching many TV programs, ranging from scientific to reality shows. However, the TV program that I am addicted to is Wild animals on Animal Planet channel. The show airs about 1 hour, twice a week. This channel is owned by Discovery, Inc. This channel talks about the life, the exist of wild animals, the relationship beetwen humans and animals, the adventures into the wild, ect. This program helps me understand more about wildlife. When you live in a crowded city and wok in a environment that is surrounded by 4 walls, you sometimes feel stress and want to come to nature. Watching this show is one way makes me feel comfortable in mind. And one of the reasons is that I love animals. They are friendly if you behave well to them. I really want to take part in a reality show of this channel to experience wildlife. This will be a good chance for me to go tinto the wild, live with animals and become their friend.

Learning English Hi! I want to practise English speaking skills. I can help you learn Vietnamese if you want.

Do you like watching film? I really like watching films because they help me to relax on my spare time. Sometimes I go to cinema with my family or my friends to enjoy our leisure time in the weekends. I'm kind of love black and white Vietnam movies. For example: Vu Dai village that day. It based on a novel written by Nam Cao. It talks about Vietnam social in 20 century. I like Korea drama films too because they just tell simple or warm and heartfelt stories with happy endings, which touch on my deepest emotions. If I have to choose between foreign films and Vietnam nowadays films, I will go with foreign film, especially the Holiwood films because most of them are well-acted, with lots of charismatic celebrities. They have high budget and attractive scripts. The conten of the films always teach me something about love and life. And the soundtracks are so amazing.
