2. Is fishing popular in your country?

Yes, it is. It is one of the most popular pastime activities in Vietnam. If you visit the countryside, you will see many men going fishing in their free time near the rivers and ponds. For them, fishing is one of the best ways to get outside, relax, and enjoy a healthier, happier life. I mean, it is a recreation where and even on the worst day, when you catch no fish at all, is better than the time spent at home doing chores or doing nothing. And in case they can catch lots of fish, that would be even better because they will have fish for dinners.

3. What do you prefer: fish or meat?

I would say I prefer fish, because high consumption of red and processed meat can increase the risk of certain cancers, as well as cardiovascular diseases. On the other hand, consuming fish can lower the risk, as it provides us with more nutrients and vitamins that our body needs. Also, I love fish since I can eat as many fish, especially sea fish, as I want, knowing that they can do wonders for my weight loss goals.

4. Where do people often go fishing?

I think it could be somewhere near the rivers, the ponds, the seas, you know, anywhere that you can find fish. The majority of people in rural areas in Vietnam often go fishing in the ponds or lakes near the house, where they can find plenty of fish. For children, they also practice their fishing skills by fishing in small ponds and trying to catch smaller fish. Also, the fishermen often use big fishing boats to catch fish and other seafood in the sea.
