Always watching your content on KZbin. Keep up the great work. Pleasure to watch. Just wishing I could of met you. I was staying at Sala Danang hotel two weeks ago. Can't believe how nice Vietnam is. Hopefully I will return some day. Mark

[@glennmartin4232]

I’ve just returned from 2 awesome months in Thailand and Vietnam. I’m back in Sydney and it’s freezing and to be honest very boring. No entertainment, ridiculously expensive. Crazy real estate prices. Over governed and policed. Da Nang is looking very appealing for a new home. Not sure if I can live there full time but may give it a try. Your not missing anything in Oz M8.

[@Truth_seeker-bl5mi]

So australia sux?

[@flynnbower8967]

I'm from Sydney...just returned from 7 months in Da Nang. Heading back asap after i stack some cash. Best place to live on earth.

[@bluefootbooby1]

Did you miss Australia and go to United States except its warm here.

[@nicksanders9299]

Do it Glenn! My girlfriend and I moved to Da Nang about 6 months ago from the US (we are 35 and 28) and we absolutely loved it there… we are now living in Hoi An on the beach side and love it even more… the quality of life is 1000000x better… we likely will never go back to the states. Best decision we’ve ever made moving here.

[@busguy149]

I have spent a lot of time in both Danang and Hoi An. I think they are great places to live. I go between them and Thailand for 6 months at a time. Vietnam is so so affordable

[@Timberwolf79]

Was there a few years ago. The food as well as the people were amazing. Can’t say enough about the place.

[@matthewtaylor1339]

Your friend jade is absolutely beautiful her smile and laugh made my day ❤

[@philmcgehee]

I was never in Hoi An but I spent a year from 1969 to 70 in Chu Lai just a little south. Lived on the beach with a little group of US Marines.

[@timjacobs6610]

Great video as always M8. but you're missing that Esquire touch. you have to implement "Coming at you like a bomb" on your videos. It's just not Esquire without that in the beginning..👍👍

maybe not quite as appropriate for an aussie to say that in Vietnam....given the past and all that lol But i agree i like esquire catch phrase

We went to Hoi An a little over a year ago. We knew you were in Da Nang a lot and hope to meet you on that trip but it didn't work out. Glad to see you make this video from there...a magical place indeed. ❤

[@crocodilesundae1477]

Love Hoi Ann. Have been twice as my wife is Vietnamese

[@shadowsmirk]

I did enjoy "this very chill, relaxing, walkabout." :) That golden hour into night is an amazing time.

[@Gulliott]

Would love another Vlog where the Esquire goes on about a day like in "Breaking the Foreign Male Stereotype in Hua Hin, Thailand "! Otherwise, great stuff mate. Enjoying seeing that world through your eyes. Thank you!

Great Place !! Take a bike ride out to the beach !! Night time is spectacular

[@Mrugzilla88]

Hi mate,Just wanted to say i appreciate seeing the places you go and showing what there is to offer ,foods,Restraunts,bars ect and some of the things to do in the locations you go and the time you put into the camera work and just explaining everything keep bringing the good video blogs👍

[@CamperKev]

Yep, I was in Hoi An recently and I loved it. I also stayed in Da Nang upon your recommendation. In fact I stumbled across an amazing vegetarian restaurant in Da Nang, which I was planing to share with you. I must send you the address. Another excellent video as always. Thank you.......

[@mduckod992]

I prefer to avoid the over touristed areas, everything's a hussle. I know you're thinking of travelling to the Philippines, there was a place in Cebu, IL Corso promenade, beautiful atmosphere, less of the tacky neon glare of commercialisation. There is some but the atmosphere is very much relaxed in the evenings

[@JeffRead-j8x]

Being there LJ in 2023 what a beautiful spot also when to da nang on your recommendation and bang nang hill Jeff from Sydney

[@rooooho2645]

I did one night in Hoi An with a lovely. Great place. We ate the best food, and it was so cheap. You mentioned the coffee. I always say you could not get fat in Vietnam on the food. The food is pretty much meat and vegetables but with the most amazing sauces.

[@johngagne986]

Good to see you Esquire. Hoi An is a fun place for a day or two but not my preferred location given the flock of tourists there and the constant hustle by the street vendors. The little restaurants and shops are colorful and as you say the food is very good. Definitely worth a visit for the experience.

cheers john, summed it up well. a day or 2 at a time is enough 👍🏻

Vietnam has too many people these days. Half of Asia floods there now. People and food are lovely but can be aggressive when it comes to the $$. Just my experience.

[@KAISERM79]

I would argue that Da Nang is one of the places I’ve been least hassled in Asia.

[@somnumna2606]

@@KAISERM79 yes agree, went there monthly for work for over a year. But HCMC is next level. Have been ripped off so many times. Had a VN partner who owns property in district 1 & 2 and the corruption definitely starts at the top. It’s not what you (we) see on the surface.

You are one of a few tourists (Westerners) seemed to enjoy Viet food over Thai food. 8/10 Caucasian tourists highly rated Thai food over Viet's. Thai food seemed to suit Caucasian more, probably due to less vegetables content just like Western food. Viet food tended to gear more vegetables content and healthier. Thai food tended to have move varieties as they claimed.
