Moreover, I am fortunate to be accompanied by Mr. Hoang, a fervent and proficient local who excels at teaching the rudiments of traditional pottery in a swiftly grasped manner for novices as well as those accustomed to automated tables. His experience spans around a decade.
The thrill is witnessing you, and other like-minded explorers, gain new insights about the local history, traditions, populace, and gaining hands-on experience in the craft. Every emotion, from anticipation, astonishment, initial disappointment, endurance, joy, to relaxation…all encapsulated in one experience. Ultimately, you get to carry home a memento or two, crafted by you — a splendid way to etch this memory in time!
