"This trip has shown me that I wasn't actually lost, I just wasn't where I was supposed to be." Netflix has revealed an official trailer for A Tourist's Guide to Love, a new adventure romantic comedy from Netflix arriving for streaming later in April. This is half a Vietnamese production, as it is set in Vietnam when a woman heads there to learn about the tourist industry. Along the way she finds adventure and romance with her Vietnamese expat tour guide when they decide to reroute the tour bus in order to explore life and love off the beaten path. Of course it's a sweet story about love and about travel and how gorgeous a place like Vietnam is – criticizing the tourism industry while it's also inviting everyone to hey, come over and visit the country. Rachael Leigh Cook stars (and produces) as Amanda, along with Scott Ly, Missi Pyle, Ben Feldman, Glynn Sweet, Alexa Povah, Jacqueline Correa, Nondumiso Tembe, Andrew Barth Feldman, Morgan Dudley, Quinn Trúc Trần, & Nsưt Lê Thiện. This looks like a very cute, uplifting, earnest tourism advertisement slash Netflix romantic comedy. Definitely makes me want to go to Vietnam.

Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Steven K. Tsuchida's A Tourist's Guide to Love, from YouTube:
