October arrives with gentler sunlight, easing deadlines, and a city that seems to exhale after months of relentless pressure. 
In this rare pause, young people seek their own ways to “cool down life”—through short trips and quiet moments that soothe the mind and restore balance before the year’s final sprint. 

Amid the rising trend of “coolcation”—vacations designed to cool the body, mind, and spirit—young people are shaping a new way of living: one that dares to face pressure head-on, and has the courage to pause in order to move forward more strongly. 

That was the choice of Phương Lan (28, Ho Chi Minh City), Head of Digital Marketing at a construction materials and interior design company, who selected Bảo Lộc as her reset destination after nine relentless months of deadlines and KPIs.

Clearing the Mind with Tea Aromas in the Mountains

For months, Lan had turned pressure into momentum to lead her team. But the unrelenting pace gradually drained her.

“I became irritable, sometimes overwhelmed to the extreme,” she admits. “Back to back meetings made my head feel like it was about to explode.”

When the company’s 2026 plan was finally approved, the pressure lifted. Yet in that moment of relief, Lan realized something unsettling: “I won at work, but I lost to myself. I was mentally exhausted and physically depleted.”

Knowing she needed a genuine refresh before the Q4 sprint, Lan stood by her window, feeling the city’s heat, watching the hurried traffic along Nam Kỳ Khởi Nghĩa Street. She told herself: This is the moment to reset.

Back at her desk, Lan twisted open a chilled bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea. The coolness spread across her tongue, a rush of freshness sweeping through her mind like a breeze, dissolving fatigue. The clean, delicate taste of natural green tea infused with EGCG felt like a mental switch, instantly lightening her spirit.

In that moment, her eyes lit up.
“This is exactly what I’ve been looking for.”

Images of mist covered tea hills glowing under the morning sun flashed through her mind. That very evening, Lan was already on a bus bound for Bảo Lộc.

During a “coolcation” Zero Degree Green Tea has become a must have item for young people seeking to cool down life.

Amid the lush highlands where rolling tea hills cradle the mist Lan let her senses unwind sipping chilled green tea in the mountain breeze. The natural tea aroma blended with the cool air lingering in each breath leaving behind a refreshing aftertaste like a mental “refresh button” cooling life and delivering an unexpectedly renewed sense of clarity.

“For the first time this year” Lan smiled “I didn’t just win at work I beat stress.”
She had paused at the right moment ready to go further.

Finding Balance with Every Sip on the Saigon River

Vương Thảo Vy and her husband work in import export a field defined by nonstop speed where every hour every shipment is tied to deadlines and pressure.

The constant strain combined with dust traffic jams and unpredictable weather gradually wore them down physically and mentally.

At the breaking point Vy even considered changing jobs. Instead the couple chose another solution returning to their hometown in Nhơn Trạch (Đồng Nai) every weekend to cool down life.

Leaving the city and waiting for the Cát Lái ferry was always the final “checkpoint” of stress where frustration peaked amid congestion and delays.

But once the ferry pulled away everything shifted. Weekend sunlight danced across the water and a cool breeze from the Saigon River swept in like a gentle caress.

Vy opened a chilled bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea.
“That feeling is magical” she says. “The river wind lifts your hair the earthy scent of wet silt drifts by and the refreshing taste of green tea with EGCG spreads through your body. It doesn’t just cool you down it instantly resets your mind eases stress and restores positive energy. Crossing the ferry isn’t just a change of place it’s crossing beyond your own pressure.”

Floating on the water with that bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea Vy felt peace return. She rediscovered a quieter version of herself where the mind relaxes and the body feels gently recharged.

A simple action yet a powerful signal of self control the journey to cool down life and regain balance had officially begun.

Cooling Down Life Pausing to Go Further

Whether in the highlands of Bảo Lộc or on the Saigon River these young people share the same mindset pause in order to move forward.

Moments of chilling with Zero Degree Green Tea along young people’s “coolcation” journeys.
