A bit more than a month ago my husband, Hiep Tran, went missing. It was the beginning of a terrible ordeal for Hiep, me and our entire family.

We now understand that he is being wrongfully detained in a Vietnamese prison.

My husband and I live a simple life, much like many other couples. We go to work each day, and every evening we come home and share a meal. I cook and he does the dishes. Afterwards, we watch movies and play with our cats. Some nights, he plays piano and I sing, although I’m never quite sure my singing is as pleasant as he makes it seem.

We both love nature and outdoor activities. On weekends we often go hiking, camping or fishing, sometimes with family and friends. We love to travel, enjoying good food and exploring new things together. These ordinary moments are what make our life together so special.

Hiep works in data analytics, but there are other things he has always been passionate about. He loves fixing........
