My Story: A Bridge Between Two Worlds

Born in Vietnam, Adopted in France

I was born in Ho Chi Minh City and grew up in Bordeaux after being adopted in France.

From an early age, I felt an identity struggle between my country of birth and my country of adoption.

As a teenager, I embarked on a personal quest to reconnect with my roots. This journey led me to find my biological family and discover a fascinating Vietnam.

Returning to My Roots: An Obvious Decision

After years of reflection, I made the decision to move back to Ho Chi Minh City to reconnect with my cultural roots.

Racines Vietnam was born from this journey, with the ambition to:

Help Vietnamese adoptees reconnect with their heritage.

Promote Vietnamese culture.

Support local craftsmanship through ethical commerce.
