    ***edit about the house price as I forgot to say that in the video and quite a few people were confused. The entire house (with a small plot of land next to it) costs $500 per month. It's not my part of the rent, it is the full cost per month*** Greetings from Dalat! Recording this video was refreshing, something very different (and even new) compared to what I filmed before. Thank you all for being with me 🙏 More videos are coming from Asia and Dalat in particular! Meanwhile check out my Patreon if you feel like showing some extra support www.patreon.com/nikiproshin

Still, it is not my problem nor is it Nikki's problem. He is just living a modest life style similar to the locals. He is not showing off his money by driving a new car or eating at the expensive restaurants. He is eating the local street foods and only pay a lot of money for a few of the imported food items that he needs to eat. There are poor people all over the world and there will always be poor people all over the world.

    A friend went on a guided tour of Vietnam in 1981 with a group of journalists and academics. It had been organised in conjunction with The Times newspaper. He loved the country and could not believe how friendly and welcoming the people were, which surprised him after what the Vietnamese people had suffered during the dreadful Vietnam war 🇻🇳🕊️☮️

    Love this video! Even if I didn’t subscribe to you, this is something I would have watched because I love learning about new cities. I’ve only heard Da Lat by name but knew nothing other than it was up in the mountains. What a great introduction and if I were to stay in Vietnam for more than a month, this might be my number one choice. I can’t deal with the hot humid tropical weather and Da Lat is mild weather, beautiful scenery from the mountains, and big enough city to have lots of things to do. I would venture to Saigon / Ho Chi Minh City for the occasional weekend stay or longer.

    Dalat is nice. The weather is more like European since so high. The mosquitos are larger and you even hear them. Plenty of stuff to do and enjoy. Escape the extreme heat of lower sea level citys. Mountains areas are thou source of dengue fever.

    I think the insect sound that you've heard is the cicadas. They are VERY loud here

    Niki, this energy of yours is kind of just right for me to follow what you're saying, compared to others in the past. Keep it this way. There are insect repelling plants you can hang outside and inside the house, may provide both esthetic and functional value.

    Wow! I guess Vietnam is a different place from when my uncle was stationed there 55 years ago. I'd like to visit Vietnam.
