In that rare quiet moment, young people search for ways to “cool down” with short trips and peaceful pauses to refresh their minds and regain balance before the year-end sprint.

Amid the “coolcation” trend — vacations that cool the body, mind, and spirit — the young generation is shaping a new lifestyle: facing pressure head-on, yet bravely stopping when needed in order to come back stronger.

Like Phương Lan (28, Ho Chi Minh City), team leader of Digital Marketing at a construction and interior materials company, who chose Bảo Lộc as her stopover to reset herself after nine months of running nonstop with deadlines and KPIs.

Freeing the Mind With the Scent of Tea in the Mountains

For months, Lan turned pressure into motivation to lead her team. But the constant workload gradually drained her.

“I became irritable, sometimes extremely tense,” Lan recalled. “Back-to-back meetings made my head feel like it was about to explode.”

Căng thẳng, mệt mỏi với công việc, cuộc sống khiến xu hướng du lịch “colocation” ngày càng được người trẻ yêu thích.
Stress and fatigue from work and daily life are driving a growing trend among young people to embrace ‘colocation’ travel.

When the 2026 plan was finally approved, she was freed from stress — only to realize: “I won at work, but I lost to myself. My spirit was exhausted, my energy completely drained.”

To be ready for the fourth-quarter sprint, Lan knew she needed a true “refresh.” She opened the window, felt the heat of the city, watched the rush of people on Nam Kỳ Khởi Nghĩa Street, and told herself: this is the moment to renew.

Returning to her desk, Lan opened a bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea. The coolness spread across her tongue, delivering an instant burst of refreshment like a breeze sweeping through her mind, clearing her fatigue. The pure, delicate flavor of natural green tea with EGCG felt like a switch turning on her spirit, giving her immediate relief.

That moment, Lan’s eyes lit up. “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for.” In her mind appeared the image of misty green tea hills under the morning sun. That same evening, she was already on the bus to Bảo Lộc.

During the “coolcation” holiday, Tra Xanh Khong Do is a “must-have item” for young people to cool down.

In the lush highlands, where tea hills are wrapped in fog, she relaxed her senses, sipping cold green tea in the mountain wind. The natural tea aroma mixed with the chilly air, flowing through each breath and leaving a refreshing aftertaste like a “reset” button for the mind — cooling down life and bringing a strange new energy.

“For the first time this year, I didn’t just win at work — I won against stress,” Lan smiled. She had stopped at exactly the right moment to go further.

Balancing the Soul With Sips of Tea on the Saigon River

Vy and her husband work in import–export, an industry described as an endless “speed race,” where every flight and every shipment comes with unavoidable deadlines and pressure.
Work stretched them thin, and the dust, traffic jams, and constant weather changes slowly exhausted them both physically and mentally.

Reaching their limit, Vy even considered changing jobs. But in the end, they 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 became the “final checkpoint” of stress, a place where all frustration peaked.

Extracted from pure natural green tea leaves, Zero Degree Green Tea helps reduce tension, dispel stress to restore relaxation, joy and creative inspiration for young people.
Made from pure natural green tea leaves with EGCG, Zero Degree Green Tea is loved by young people for its ability to reduce stress and fatigue, and cool down life.

But once the ferry pulled away, everything changed. The weekend sunlight danced on the water, and the cool breeze from the Saigon River brushed against them like a gentle reset.

Vy opened a chilled bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea. “It felt magical,” she said. “The river wind blowing through my hair, the faint smell of fresh mud, and the refreshing taste of natural green tea with EGCG spreading through my body. It didn’t just cool me down — it reset my mind instantly, reduced my stress, and brought back positivity. Crossing the river wasn’t just moving from one place to another — it was crossing over my own pressure.”

Floating on the waves with her bottle of Zero Degree Green Tea, Vy felt peace returning. She found her quiet self again — the version that breathes freely, with energy gently filling back up.

Just one simple action, yet it was a self-made signal: the journey of cooling down life and regaining balance had officially begun.

Cooling Down Life: Stopping to Go Further

Whether in the Bảo Lộc highlands or on the Saigon River, the shared spirit among young people is clear: stopping to go further.

Trà Xanh Không Độ has become a daily ritual for millions of young Vietnamese. It represents a new way to enjoy green tea — convenient, refreshing, and health-conscious.

Each journey is a different way of “cooling down,” but they all share the same belief: pressure cannot drown the desire to rise. Today’s young generation doesn’t avoid stress — they face it, rebound from it, and know how to “reward” themselves with meaningful moments that cool down life.

Amid their trips and quiet pauses for recharging, Zero Degree Green Tea has become a must-have item. Made from natural green tea leaves with EGCG, each bottle provides instant refreshment, helping to reduce stress and melt away fatigue.

More than just a drink, Zero Degree Green Tea has become a symbol of the modern “cool down life” mindset: the courage to give your all — and the wisdom to stop and rebuild your energy.

Because sometimes, the finish line isn’t at the end of the journey but in the moment we stop, take a sip of cool green tea, feel our spirit refresh, and smile — realizing we have conquered stress and found ourselves again.
