Alison Linh what is your opinion about start small business in Vietnam.

It just hit me that its been 51 years since I was in Vietnam and there are folks in Vietnam who did not experience the war and only know peace. I was so blown away on how things look today. I have wondered what it would be like to go back so I watch videos like yours - thank you. Vietnam Huey Door Gunner Class of 71 & 73

is incredible how nice seems to be everything in Vietnam, much respect for the Vietnamesse people.

Cool!! My family is in Vietnam and I badly want to go visit them.

Da Nang has beaches unlike Saigon. That's a good reason to move there. I passed through there going to Hoi An back in December. It was raining and cold. I could see the beach from the highway all empty of course since it was raining and chilly. Those businesses by the beach probably got wifi which would make a great place to work from for those who work during day time hours. Will make lots of people envious to see someone working with a laptop on the beach.

It's Goldilocks weather not too much of either hot or cold but just right. I was there for 11 days starting in Hanoi. stayed at Ha Long Bay one night.. went into the underground caves. Continued on to Hue stayed there a couple days then traveled down a mountain road near the sea..stopped off at a rest stop where it was windy and freezing. Then passed Da Nang on the way to Hoi An and stayed there a few days. Then went to the Da Nang airport and took a flight to Saigon. Stayed there a few days. Visited the Mekong Delta. So many regions for a slim looking country. Met up with a Vietnamese friend I chat with for years but first time we met at Highland Coffee. Then met another friend who had to come escort me to cross the street due to incessant traffic. So that's my second time to Vietnam in two years. Like the Chef Anthony Bourdain says there's something about Vietnam that makes one say "I must return." Yeah you should post a picture of you working on the beach with a laptop with the caption 'This Is My 9-5 Only Thing I Only Work a Few Hours a Day."

You did not say if they recite a prayer on the ferry before they take off. They usually do.

@AlisonLinh

Haha I will if I ever make it that big! Thanks :) I believe it's like that all around Asia. If you speak English, you will be more successful or something. I heard that there were so many Philippino dialects that English is a common language for everyone. I was sitting at a coffee shop and listening to these two locals have a business meeting and it was like mostly in their language with some English words every now and then. Interesting. I do not personally hear a prayer on the ferry, but I'm sure people were praying. A couple of our ferry rides got really wavy and crazy!

David Swenson That is a very good question. Unfortunately, no trust fund, but I am under 25 so I am still under my father's health insurance. However, international health insurance isn't too expensive here. As for retirement, I haven't thought that far yet. Living in Vietnam has allowed me to save up lots of money. Hopefully, if I keep working, I will be able to save up a decent amount. I have no idea how much you would need for retirement though.
