Timeline

About 10 weeks

Challenge

As well as long-flight experience, I understand what flight passengers want and need. Before I start to make Wondering magazine, I want to make a travel magazine like a book of stories about global culture, lifestyle trends, food and drink. Storytelling will make passengers feel comfortable during their trip.

Outcome

Vietnam is where I was born and grew up. I want to bring our stories of people and culture to the world.

I made a trip to Vietnam for 2 months, visited different cities and learned about people and culture in Vietnam. It took 3 weeks to collect all articles and images, and 10 weeks to combine everything together in Wondering Magazine.

Wondering magazine should be my travel journal in Vietnam

Process

I spent 2 months traveling in Vietnam to look, touch and feel Vietnam. Surprisingly, I realized that it is a totally different “color” from North to South Vietnam.

When I got back to Seattle, I looked at all photos I took and stories I collected. I make a moodboard, table of content and layout the magazine
