About

Hi, I’m Rhianna, often affectionately known as Rhirhi.

I long for one hollow leg to eat more, but I also want extra room for all my overthinking. Saigon is currently my home. This is a space for musings about my past and present experiences. My move to Vietnam in 2022 was the catalyst for starting to write personally again. This is not a newsletter about Vietnam, but there is sure to be content about my life here—eating, observing, working, struggling—and how I use it to dig deeper into myself and my feelings.

Why subscribe? And then why pay?

Because you know me from my Instagram food adventures @onehollowleg and enjoyed my captions as much as my photos. Or maybe you read my previous onehollowleg wordpress blog and like my writing. Or maybe you know that I like to write to avoid the cost of therapy. Maybe my thinking will resonate with your own. I hope so.

Paid subscriptions are USD $5 per month or USD $50 for one year. Posts for paid subscribers are much more personal in subject matter and are for readers who want to understand me on a deeper level. The balance is that, in addition to having access to my full archive, paid subscribers always have access to my recommended list of restaurants for Ho Chi Minh City and receive regular updates about this list.
