Neville Dean

Neville is an accomplished Australian marketing entrepreneur as well as an expert on personal and business achievement. He is also a recognized authority on right-brain thinking and in 2005 he was invited to Ho Chi Minh City to deliver a keynote address on Creative Thinking. It was during this visit Neville discovered his “spiritual home” was Vietnam.

Later Neville with his wife Colleen returned to Vietnam to live and work remotely in the centrally located town of Hoi An. It was here he overheard two Americans asking for hamburgers at a local restaurant. Despite having written The Theatre of Life, a book about finding life's purpose, it wasn't until that moment Neville realised his own – "discovering and sharing the best food experiences Hoi An has to offer".

In 2011 Neville established a food & cultural walking tour The Original Taste of Hoi An, now a renowned local institution helping visitors discover the true taste of Hoi An.

Known as “The Teacher” Neville uses his experience and learning to help Vietnamese people realize their own purpose and create successful lives and careers doing what they really love.
