3 Countries, 3 Unique Coffees ☕️ Turkey, South Korea, Vietnam

[@NikiProshin]

All locations of the coffee shops are in the description. It's my 4th trip to Vietnam and every time the duration of my gets longer: I first traveled across the country for 2 weeks, then it was a month, then 3 months and probably now I might be staying even longer. Three things I love here the most: people, coffee, and the flow of daily life. You can expect some more videos about my experience of living in Vietnam, as well as travel vlogs from other countries.

Dalgona: in the UK we call it 'cinder toffee'. Made by adding bicarbonate of soda to melted sugar and then allowing it to cool and harden. It is eaten as confectionery. It is also called 'honeycomb' even though it has no honey in it.

[@bdianeballard1543]

I have missed you!!

Hi, I just realised you don't upload a lot of videos anymore. And I also haven't watched your videos for a long time. Hope you're doing fine and have nice jobs and so on. 😊😊

[@anissia1210]

This is so amazing! I'm a 55 yo yt woman from Louisville Kentucky. Just to start off, I've NEVER been on a plane! I've been thru a few different states in the South and the East. Pennsylvania is the farthest North East I've been. I've been to all Southern states to the West to Missouri, Illinois , Alabama. That line is the most Western I've been. I've never been to another country. I wish I could go back and travel the world just like you're doing. Thank you for taking me with you to see things I'll never see in person! Stay safe!!

[@NikiProshin]

Thank you 🙏 Traveling all across the Southern states sounds interesting too! I hope you'll still get an opportunity to travel the world, at least a little

[@fonsvandenhove]

Such an interesting comment, @anissia1210. It's mostly portrait that all Americans travel all over the world, all of the time. As you envy Niki, I envy you for having seen Kentucky and some other states. Perhaps I will one day as well, although I have no such plans. Travelling to experience other cultures broadens the minds of people. So, greetings from cold Estonia and stay warm in Kentucky.

[@makingnewdreamscometrue]

Hi Niki. Nice video. Enjoyed it a lot. How about traditional arts and dress? What are Vietnamese holidays, etc?

[@jj-if6it]

You can still travel the world! Even just to Canada

[@touringonaharleywithrickan6693]

@anissa1210- Niki is amazing and brings the world to us but we can still see different countries. Get in your car, drive north to Canada. We live in Ottawa, the capital city. We (couple in our 60s) would be happy to host you and show you our city. We have ridden our motorcycles to Kentucky and have visited your beautiful state. If you drive, you CAN see other countries, even from Kentucky!

[@Joe_From_IT]

So glad to see you, Niki- and coffee is one of my favorite things! Look forward to your next chapter- enjoy it!

I thought yesterday that hadnot "heard" from you in a while! Was happy to have your "coffee supreme" video today! Á bien tot!

[@nikigarza2442]

I am a nurse who worked at the VA (veterans admin) - in the hospitals. Those vets who could get over the bad memories and even some that did not, loved certain aspects of Vietnam and wanted to go back. I know it is a fascinating country with creative ,focused, tenacious and polite people. Enjoy. You deserve a place where you can find peace and meditate.

[@justnoticing]

Great to see you back posting videos. Very interesting to see and learn more about the coffee culture in other places. My city, Mellbourne, is renowned for it's coffee culture and I love, love, love coffee to the point of addiction. Looking forward to more videos from Vietnam.

[@jj-if6it]

hehe fellow Melburnian here

[@nickjohnson811]

One great thing I've recently discovered is how easy it is to roast my own coffee just using my oven. I didn't need an expensive coffee roaster to make great tasting coffee. I put 2 cups of beans each on 3 baking sheets, pop them in the oven at 400 degrees convection roast for about 18 minutes and voila! I roast them to the right doneness by eye. You can get so many kinds of green coffee beans from all over the world, far more types than the roasted beans which are available. Give it a try!

[@NikiProshin]

I haven't tried to roast coffee before, that might be a good try here in Dalat since they grow a lot of coffee beans here!

[@nickjohnson811]

​@@NikiProshin I do it on days when I can keep the windows open because it does create a little smokiness in the air when I open the oven. When it's done and cooled, I pour the beans back and forth between two pots outside to let the breeze blow away the chaff.

Have you seen the coffee musicum in Buon Ma Thuot? its really neat. I'd recommend it if you ever make it over there .

[@lorisheheen2198]

You have such an exciting life Niki! From one country to another! Good for you! You'll never look back on life and think you would've, could've or should've. We only get one life and you are living your best! The coffee you had in Seoul looked like one I would like. I loved the Garden coffee shop in Dalat! Very nice! It was nice to see you had a visit with Dima! That was a surprise! And last but not least, you still got it Niki! This video was well done! And also you are very comfortable talking to the camera....still! Enjoy Dalat! Look forward to your next video! Thank you for sharing your journey!🙏❤😊

[@NikiProshin]

Thank you Lori! That coffee from Seoul is rather simple to make if you have an electric whisk. But the Vietnamese Bac Xiu (the coffee I had in the garden) tastes way better than that. It's also easy to make, I'm actually having one right now. Start with a strong shot of coffee (espresso, or just instant coffee with no sugar), then add 15-25g of condensed milk, stir well, then pour into 75g of regular milk with ice. That's my morning coffee in Vietnam!

[@lorisheheen2198]

​@@NikiProshinThank you! I'm going to try it!❤❤❤😊

[@Yhagiboobjota]

I’m from Seoul Korea but I’ve been both countries 🇹🇷&🇻🇳 and I think I had best coffee in 🇻🇳and best tea in 🇹🇷!

[@NikiProshin]

Agree! I also like Turkish tea (but coffee is still #1 for me)

[@juni_purr]

Good to see you and Dima again. You seem to have an affinity for Vietnam. Enjoy!

[@linahhing5442]

Thank you Niki for sharing this video. Coffee is a must for me every morning. I have never been to Vietnam but I had Vietnam coffee in my country. Always find Vietnam’s coffee has a very nice strong aroma & taste which I like. Even Vietnam’s instant coffee is good too but a little sweet. Looking forward to see your next video

[@heathervandewalle8954]

Enjoyed seeing you again and I am happy you are getting to explore other places and countries because I know you like that. I am an old great grandma and don't get to go anywhere exciting. Haha

I'm so glad you moved out of Russia and you're thriving! 🥰

[@carolinetaylor5594]

We call it Honeycomb and it is a sweet that can be mostly found chocolate coated. Such as in a Violet Crumble (from Australia) or a Cadbury Crunchie bar that is sold in a few countries.

[@jj-if6it]

Yeah I'm surprised they didn't know to compare it to honeycomb? Thought that was found worldwide

This warm, green environment looks very attractive to Canadians right now. I am interested to learn more about Vietnam, including food, lifestyle and about animals and plants.

I have two Canadian friends here, they seem to be enjoying local climate a lot!

[@fayepotts3279]

Great to see you Niki! Never been to Viet Nam so I will withhold my opinion until l see what you present in your video.

[@FloridaStitcher2]

Good to see you. What is it that draws you to Vietnam? I know very little about it, and would like to learn more.

[@janeburton7647]

Hi Niki - Yes, agree - coffee first thing in the morning is popular internationally and seems to stimulate the brain and helps folks get going. It’s very big for socializing in the East and Middle East and is a big thing here in 🇨🇦 & 🇺🇸 with our Tim Hortons and Starbucks cafe chains, etc. My late dad used to dip his oatmeal cookies into his coffee. Though I love coffee - I can no longer have it for medical reasons - so have become a big black tea drinker. It’s an iconic drink in the Orient (eg the formal Japanese tea ceremony). We continue to enjoy your travel and cultural videos. Take care & Cheers!

I hear that you haven't had the real coffee experience until you've had the Ethiopian coffee experience. They did introduce coffee to the world, so I guess it is only fitting that it would be more of a ritual in their case.

did anyone end up translating the turkish conversation from the beginning? I am also curious, I love the way their language sounds.

[@jj-if6it]

Someone below said: "If you increase your production quantity," he said, "I am strong," he said, "the production will increase to 25,000 units." A third-person account of a commercial agreement dialogue, We Turks use the word "he said" “dedi” a lot in Turkish in these types of dialogues."
