Image:Leaving  Wednesday to Vietnam, Ho Chi MinhAll nearly set and I am off to Vietnam on Wednesday to the XX Amicigar event in Ho Chi Minh organized by my friend Gino and his partner(s).
The event will take place from
the 23rd to 26th April. Since 20 years AmiCigar celebrates friendship of Habanos aficionados/lovers.
Over 100 people from 25 countries will get together. I will participate the first time and I am very excited to get there. Since the day I made friendship with Gino I asked to participate on his events. Last year in December I received the honor to get an invite. I will stay there some days ago and after the event. My motto is: "If I travel to places with long flight times I need to stay longer, especially when I will be there the first time. Accommodate, relax, chill, smoke and might see some attractions."

Looking forward to make new acquaintances and friendships, as well to see some friends from the CSWC before the final in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Also to share some Habanos with other aficionados, which will be a bit difficult as allowance is only 20 cigars at the customs.
Looking at the schedule table and locations it will be an extraordinary experience, knowing Gino, it will be well organized.

Thank you Gino for the invite and also for organizing this event for 20 years. It is a lot of work, 20 years is a strong commitment as well that this many people participate tells me you are doing it right. Can learn much from it.

I just wanted to tell you how beautifully your post was written. Reading it brought back so many wonderful memories of Ho Chi Minh City and the Amicigar event.

It truly made me happy to relive those special moments again — meeting so many incredible people from different countries, all connected by the same passion for cigars and friendship.

Thank you for sharing your experiences and emotions so openly. Your words truly brought the atmosphere and the beautiful spirit of the event back to life for me.🙏🏾
