Museum in Vietnam

At the end of January 2013, or so, I was at a museum & village which was a few hours south of Hanoi, Vietnam, Asia. I was there for 5 days teaching the staff English. The director thought I was bad at English. That is why I was not allowed to stay longer. It was a beautiful place surrounded by mountains, trees, plants, lakes, rivers, gardens. People go there to see and learn about how people use to live in Vietnam back 1,000 years ago or so. I was there just to volunteer. i was going to stay for a few months. Instead, I went to a friends house for 6 days in a different providence for the Tet (Lunar Chinese New Years) Holiday. I also went to another city.
