The network is gaining popularity post girl, who told about the amazing familiarity, what happened in Vietnam. Catherine Papin met in Asia 89-year-old grandmother Lena from Krasnoyarsk: it turned out, for several years regularly travels the world on one's own retirement.

Catherine met her grandmother for breakfast. Baba Lena, who worked during the war in the rear, has a daughter and two grandchildren, but she lives alone - and traveling too.

Next, the words of the author:

Friends, I want to introduce you to one amazing person :)

I recently vacationed in Vietnam. And just for a second day over breakfast she heard it in Russian. At the next table sat a very old grandmother, and tried to explain to the waiter that she needed no spicy food. Grandma was sitting with a woman younger than himself and I thought it was my mother with her daughter came to rest. Great! Infrequently meet our old people on vacation, unfortunately ... I decided to come to meet and help to translate into English, so she was prepared not spicy food. And you know what? It was not a family, but just met on the people of the town. BUT! Baba Lena (as it appeared to me :)) arrived one !!!!!!! One !!!!! From Krasnoyarsk to Vietnam! In 89 years !!!!!!

If you say that I was amazed - it does not say anything! Of course, we decided to become acquainted with this amazing :) grandma grandmother was born in the distant 1927. During the war she worked in the rear, in Orenburg, plowing the fields with oxen for sowing, then sow, cleaned. She married a military man. At first everything was fine. But then my husband began to drink. Beat her and her daughter. it was hard. Now Grandma lives alone. She has a daughter and two grandchildren.

In '83 Baba Lena decided to travel :) So went and decided! And since then saves his pension (myself! Do not ask anybody) to 1-2 times a year to leave. I understand that it does not help anyone. He said that each year goes to Karlovy Vary for three weeks to heal. There once met a woman, she invited her guests to Germany. Do you think the woman Lena flew to her for the next year? :))) Of course I flew, and then together they went to the Czech Republic :)

Health grandmother travel allows. He walks with a stick of course, but quite confident! But his eyes, alas fed heavily. One sees very little, and the other bad. He plans to do the operation. The past was unsuccessful.

In Krasnoyarsk, she goes to the travel agency and the staff help her choose a ticket. Baba Lena travels with a backpack. Of course, her wear it very difficult, but absolutely always and everywhere there are people who help her. And you should have seen her neatly hung clothes in the room! Grandma just unreal !!! I was struck by how sensible she ponders what flexible and tenacious mind in 89 years! It is an interesting conversationalist and just a positive person!

Of course, being a bit hard it was to deal with all the nuances in Vietnam, and we decided to take over her patronage to the holiday :) tried to show her the most of what was available to her physical condition. And it is generally the kind of person, open to everything new. For example, she was asked if she wanted to try a ride on a bike with a driver - agreed with great enthusiasm! I was riding behind her on the seat, and asked if she was afraid. What Baba said Lena - Super !!!! Vietnamese driver for so long held her, just did not want to leave :) In general, there was a bunch of positive things and some of them have in the photo :)

I really wanted to share this incredible story !!! Repostnite, let everyone know what an amazing, bold and cool granny live in our country :) I'd love to be the same in 89 years! Only Baba Katya :)
