When having a cup of coffee in the old town at the heart of Saigon and embarking on a new project, I always want to find my melodious memories of youth, my Paris. Darlington, she is all I dream about—a classic and arrogant Paris. And perhaps because of that, our team has spent more than 3 months trying to understand what she really needs: a story.

I often write my daily stories in a small notebook. Sometimes a few lines of emotion or thinking occur at that time.

“A scribbled painting.
Or some pictures.
There is a dry leaf, so put it in.
To occasionally take it out.”

It is like a piece of ‘time memory’ recorded and stored through the words written on paper. Every time I read it again, I felt like I was reversing an old movie. Each episode, each page, is a journey that has passed.

I saw how everything quietly changed, or recalling the moments of experiencing with special people, there were memories that seemed to have been forgotten in the flow of time. And I think if I use a notebook, it will be useful for those who want to write a few lines of thought. To look back later, there will be many memorable things, even small ones, that you will realize in Darlington that, at different timelines, there were those special people visiting.

This journal will be a memory keeper. Record the most true emotions when you release yourself into the emotional lines, let the letters drift on the page, and store them. A piece of memory from this meaningful journey

“The pages become old, so the memories inside seem always new.
Through many seasons of the years, hopefully this book kept filling.
Take a seat and write the story of Darlington together!
