Couldn't Resist
Ben Tre, Vietnam, January 2008


Our guide said that this has something to do with tailoring. I just couldn't resist how close it was to my name.

No, "May" here mean sew. Tiem May - Sew shop or taylor shop. Yes, you can get custom made clothing here.

Checking a translation dictionary, Tiệm is a noun meaning "shop".
May is either an adjective meaning "lucky or fortunate",
or a verb meaning "to stitch", as in a sewing machine or hand sewn.
Lucky tailor shop?
