Meet Lemon Juice Bruce|Facts About Vietnam

Lemon Juice Bruce

A few years ago now I met Lemon Juice Bruce through a google search. I signed up for his newsletter and corresponded with him many times. He is one cool guy who has some great insights about Vietnam.

On his blog he posts the quote, "In times of war, the first casualty is truth."

(U Thant, former UN Secretary-General during the US war in Viet Nam)

About Bruce: (taken from his blog)

Bruce McPhie/Vietnam

I was born in Melbourne, Australia, at a very early age. In my youth, I was an anti-war/anti-draft activist against the American War in Viet Nam, and Australia's participation in it. I 'dropped out' of a teacher training course to work full-time against the war and for peace, a life-changing decision. In 1996, I came to Viet Nam on an adventure holiday with Intrepid Travel company, which became another life-changing event. I found my new home here in Viet Nam, and have worked as a tour group leader ever since, travelling up and down this amazing and beautiful country. In Viet Nam, even my name seems to have changed to "Lemon Juice" Bruce, but really I am still the same Bruce McPhie. If there is indeed reincarnation, maybe I was a Vietnamese in a former life! What an inspiring country this is. The anti-Viet Nam propaganda and misinformation of the past sometimes continues today. It is not easy to clear the mind of a lifetime of this, but when you do discover the true magic of Viet Nam you are richly rewarded, enlightened, and understand the world in a whole new way. As I say: "Come to Viet Nam, and visit the world!"
