We're are thrilled that Hang-Mai and Mr. Chau from Vietnam will be joining us in India soon -- and especially excited about them coming to Coimbatore!
Both of them are permaculture farmers, whom you might've read about them in earlier blogs. Hang-Mai got Fukuoka's One Straw Revolution translated in Vietnamese and built a country-wide movement around it, and for many grassroots activists she's seen a principled, no-nonsense and big-hearted icon. :) Mr. Chau, on the other end, spent decades living entirely off the land and is the foremost permaculture expert in Vietnam -- extremely humble, loving, and not on email. :) They recently got married, and for their honeymoon, someone gifted them an old truck (that went *very* slow even at max speed :)) and they traveled the length of Vietnam, staying with different farmers and receiving gifts (particularly seeds) and then paying it forward to the next farmer they connected with. They have unending stories of human goodness, and nature's abundance. :)
All that to say, if you want to catch them, one certain place to plan on your itinerary is Coimbatore. :) We'll keep you posted as the dates finalize.
