What I learned as an expat in Vietnam 2024

[@guitaristiz]

Does anyone know why Vietnamese people always want to take picture of our passport? I feel like it’s a security breach 😭 what if they sell our info ???

I have a kind of same issue about a toothbrush like u. There is a brand and model I have been using for a long time and it's hard to find in Taiwan and Thailand where I am living. so I buy it 20~30pcs in Korea whenever I visit.

[@businessmalie]

I had no idea it would be so difficult to find it 😂

Do you know if the food price in Saigon restaurants is much more expensive than Da Nang?

[@businessmalie]

It seems to me that Da Nang is definitely cheaper when it comes to local businesses, but it depends on the type of places you go to. If it's a chain, the price will be about the same. I will go to Da Nang in a couple of weeks and compare the prices. 🩵

Fun video. Not sure why you have the subtitles, they are really distracting and your English is perfect

[@businessmalie]

Thank you😇! A lot of non-native speakers are watching my video, so I believe this will help them grasp the meaning faster( hopefully 🤞)

well maybe the environment is toxic enough that even the mosquitoes can't handle it ... I live near the ghetto in Sài Gòn the most toxic one, I haven't worried about any of it, just feel weird when you are mention it.

[@businessmalie]

Probably the environment is toxic, you are right🤣

It’s nice how thicc you are, you ethnically German? Vietnam seems way chill! Thought it would look rough but surprised how pretty it looks

[@businessmalie]

Thank you, I'm from Crimea 🩵 And you are totally right, Vietnam is a lot more beautiful than people think.

chocolate is nice but absolutly give up potato chips. they are so unhealthy and always feel disgusting after eating. will become so healthy if you give them up. especially Vietnam has much better snack foods if you still need snacks

[@TheRebornofSocialVietSub]

due to the wokeness and entitled culture :) in the West tipping and all of the things go wrong and crazy on another level forcing to give free money to someone and otherwise, cursing and shaming you is just out of mind :). High education makes no sense to me. Tipping in the east is rarely because most of the people are poor they just can buy the service and pay for it no extra more also all of people have the mind set nothing free :) and nobody take care of you, you need to work to earn it, that's why tip is more appreciated not entitled like in the west when it's normal to get something from another because you think you deserve that.

[@businessmalie]

Thanks for the explanation ))This is what I have noticed, which is why people are very honest and grateful in Vietnam, and they don't disrespect people who are not able to tip. 🌸

[@Creees]

FFS stop tipping nonsense. it inflates the price. you guys are just in Vietnam because its a cheap country not because you love Vietnam.when you tup and ruin the prices. America has so many bad things and tipping is up there as one of the worst things. if they become your friend fine do whatever no limits. but tipping just changes the price. remember you cant live permanently or work locally. you cant invest here. so stop recklessly spending and tipping please
