Vietnamese “Being Peace” author Thich Nhat Hanh once said, “If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.”
And that joyous aura is exactly what Vietnam wants to embody, hence their growing party scene. Today, we will be talking about Epizode Festival in Phu Quoc, Vietnam!
But, before we get going, catch this aftermovie from last year! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZivRn7hPdc&t=147s

In case there’s a day during the festival where you wanna explore the town a little bit more, why not check out the Bai Saos, which are sugary white sandy beaches with swaying palms and turquoise-colored sea. Of course, there are night markets with fresh seafood, locally brewed beer, and souvenirs upon souvenirs. There’s sunset watching for the best ocean sunsets in Asia, while snorkeling is offered as well.
