Ahem, what is the situation with bringing "guests" back to your hotel room in Vietnam? I hear there is something like a 10pm curfew - supposedly an actual country-wide law (?) - and you can't bring "guests" to your hotel after that time. Is that correct?

I believe that is it, thanks! I was guessing a drive south along the coast but this one makes more sense.

>>2697618
Yeah this is dope, and short enough that it's easy.

>>2697638
Yeah, what I'm looking for is to set off in the morning and return to Da Nang for bedtime, not have to fuck around with a hostel on the road or something.
On a related note, is it common to run itno issues driving a motorbike in VN? How strict can they be about licenses etc? I have a Canadian drivers license if that matters at all for bikes. It was enough for Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia for me.

>>2697658
You just need to make sure you have enough bribe money to pay the white boy tax.

>>2697658
I have an expired international license that indicates only cars and not bikes. If you wear a helmet and follow the other rules, I think you're okay. Keep some cash on hand for a bribe just in case, but not too much. You don't want them to get greedy. I've been told by several Vietnamese that the police are discouraged from picking on foreigners because the government wants to preserve its good reputation but you can make of that what you will. I don't know. Take this whole response with a grain of salt and get more opinions but I haven't heard any fucked up stories that didn't begin with the driver being a retard, like my friend who tried to run from the cops on the Hà Giang loop. He was taken to the station but still drove away free after parting with a little coffee money.

>>2697663
>>2697665
For reference what's a good bribe? 200k?

Yeah I mean I don't intend on driving around drunk and recklessly, I don't mind the risk of a bribe if that's about the worst I can expect while otherwise following the rules.

>>2697665
What would "the other rules" entail? It doesn't seem like people give a shit about lights and signs in VN from what I've seen.

>>2697669
200k has been recommended to me by a Vietnamese, yeah.

>>2697670
They sure don't, but that doesn't mean they never get in trouble for not giving a shit about them. I avoid running red lights and speeding.

>>2696817
Why does every hotel in VN ask me what my expected arrival time is? My dates are still a month away but I've noticed this from almost all of them, and the booking process asks this exact info which I answer. What gives? Are they trying to get some legal workaround if I'm late to fuck me over and cancel my booking?

>>2697720
it is because the VN government will be surveilling you.

>>2697490
for sure, its been a dumpster fire.
anyway, ill be in vietnam for 2-3 weeks in December. im really looking forward to it. my only concern is my family is trying to do too much traveling (imo) in that time period. the plan is saigon, hanoi, hoi an, and then a few places around those cities. so basically a few days in each place before going to the next one.

>>2697720
Are picking dates in advance?

I thought about doing it, but decided to just book when I see the actual hotel on the spot

There's so many fucking hotels that if 1 is full, I'll just go across the street and it'll still be the same price
Am I dumb? should I book in advance?

>>2697784
My wife and I are both going to be working remotely for ~5wks so I wanted to schedule my mon-fri to be stable and in a place with a good workspace. It really just depends what type of trip you want. VN is cheap enough that I don't mind if I decide to dip one night elsewhere or if I end up being late to a place, I'm only losing like $30 per night in most spots.

It's not a bad idea to get your first location booked ahead, especially if it's going to be somewhere hectic like Hanoi or HCMC it's nice to avoid the headache after a long flight and know you've got a decent spot booked to unwind.

>>2697784
I should add, many of the places I'm booking are cancellable up to a day or so beforehand, so really I'm not risking much at any given time. Booking.com gives decent perks and discounts, I have a few free private airport pickups included and shit.

>>2697728

>>2698022
If I have time to go to either Hoi an OR Hue, which would you recommend? I'm more interested in good food and a nice motorbike ride (from Da Nang) than tourist shit

>>2698042
Huế hands down.

>>2698045
Any particular local dishes or highlights aside from the old imperial thingy you'd suggest?

>>2698042
Hue on motorbike through Hai Van pass and then sticking to the coast is a great ride. You can stop in little villages on the way there and the road itself is largely traffic free. There's a bunch of abandoned resorts by the beach that you can explore if you are feeling epic. I believe in the last thread I wrote about Da Nang and what to do around it in more detail, but I will repeat myself. 1 night in Hue, 1 night in Hoi An, 1 day trip to My Son. However if you really have to pick one, based on your criteria of good food and bike ride, I would lean towards Hue as it's an overall more fun experience. That being said, while the bike ride to Hoi An is not as cool, the food is better in my opinion. Plus you can get a suit tailored if that is your thing. If anything just getting a coat tailored is well worth it.
Da Nang is a great base of operations if you want to explore central Vietnam.

>>2697889
i really hope not.
>>2698022
maybe but ive never been.

>>2698217
>maybe but ive never been.
If you really want to go then go, of course, but unless you just like cute touristy shit then you'll probably be disappointed. I'd had enough of Hội An from the moment I parked my bike. To be fair, I was alone, and that's the kind of thing that might have been more enjoyable with a girl, but as it was, it was just dense crowds of foreigners and people hawking overpriced crap. Do with this what you will.

any anons know what can i expect to pay for a cheap hotel/hostel for ~2 months in binh thanh?? im seeing like $15-$20 a night online but i imagine there is a discount for booking in person and for a long stay. just need a room to put my shit and sleep

>>2698275

How would a couple of backpackers boat up the Mekong from Ho Chi Minh to Phnom Penh without spending a bunch of money booking a commercial cruise?

>>2699087
you should probably just hire a boat to take you to a town and then hire another one to the next. I know tours for the dolphins do cross between Laos and Cambodia and back to the 10 000 Islands which are well worth it. Other than that there are plenty of buses and mini vans to help link up along the way.

>>2699087
wikitravel lists Chau Doc in Vietnam as having boat options to get there. Not sure what those are like.

reckon they're like boats

>>2699311
This is what I was thinking, but how easy is it to just hire a boat on the spot on the morning you want to go? And how much would that cost? The entire Vietnam/Cambodia trip is only going to be 14 days so we can't really hang around.
>>2699315
Speedboat from Chau Doc is the fallback plan.

>>2699458
For me? Easy. For you? impossible.

>>2699813
This is the answer to most of the questions on this board. You either have it or you don't.

Ok I just got here
Took the night soviet train from Saigon to Nha Trang

First impressions are
How the fuck do people drive or do anything here. I don't understand the flow of traffic at all. People just go the wrong way down a one way street and everyone is honking and cutting each other off.
Also I have a hard time adjusting to the monetary system
500,000 is a lot apparently but everything costs about 100,000 so why is it so hard to break a 500,000?
Also there's a lot more people than I expected, I'm from new york where density is a thing, but this is to another level. Feels like India or something idk
But the people are also kinda cold. I tried my best to chat up my train mate even with my bad Vietnamese and he kinda just gave me the cold shoulder, feels bad.
Really good street food though, I'm enjoying all the food stuff. I'm not really a big culinary guy so I'll probably stick to pork buns for the next 3 months that I'm here

What's something fun to do that isn't touristy in Nha Trang, I'm mostly going to work and go to the beach but I want to do at least something a bit memorable with my time here

Also I saw a white hippy with dreadlocks and his fat wife with dreadlocks and I instantly got annoyed

>>2699908
Curious about why you chose Nha Trang. Of the central coastal cities it is the worst one imo. Also why the train? Sleeper buses are much more comfortable.
Anyways. There are a bunch of temples you can visit if Cham architecture is something that interests you. Otherwise you can take the cable car across the bay and check out Vinpearl Resort/islands.
Nha Trang is very tourist oriented so there isn't much that isn't touristy in town.
Rent a motorbike and explore the countryside. There's waterfalls and a salt field. It should cost you something like 100k per day for the bike.

>>2699947
Oh and monkey island.

>>2699947
>Curious about why you chose Nha Trang
Some russian guy recommended it to me. Why is it the worst?
>Also why the train?

I might check out the temples. Thanks. I don't feel safe riding a bike here, I don't understand how the traffic here works at all. I would crash in 0.002 seconds

>>2699952
>russian recommended Nha Trang
Ah, this makes sense. Nha Trang is where most Russian tourists go to live in Vietnam for the winter. Not sure what started the trend, but it's huge among the normie russian crowd that vacations in Vietnam. Maybe because it has the most resorts?
Don't let me demoralize you by saying it's the worst. It's fine on its own, but gets mogged by Da Nang and Quy Nhon on price, area, and design. You'd probably be comfortable riding a motorbike in those cities. I also found them to be much cleaner. I am nitpicking of course, so enjoy your trip!

>>2699955
The tourist area of Đà Nẵng sucks and has zero soul. I haven't been to Nha Trang though.

>>2699955
>but gets mogged by Da Nang and Quy Nhon on price, area, and design
what? Danang is more expensive than NhaTrang and has a worse beach where you can't swim freely
QuyNhon is more quiet and smaller, wherever it's better or not depends what are you looking for
otherwise they are the same: all of them have beach, hills and some temples, NhaTrang isn't overrun by tourist any more than Danang

I know Numbeo can be outdated or just full of shit, so I want to ask here. How much do you reckon the cost of living would be in a studio apartment in a cheaper part of Saigon? I just want to NEET until I run out of money. I only eat once a day and my only other expenses would be utilities, internet, phone plan, a gym, and Grab if I can't just walk somewhere in under 30 minutes. I also might do a visa run into Cambodia if I stay longer than 3 months. Would $500 a month be reasonable?

I didn't try that. But today I went to the beach and a homeless young man asked me for some money.
I gave it to him in exchange for him going to eat with me and than gave him 400,000 VND to go buy some club clothes so he can introduce me to some girls.

Maybe I got scammed but w/e. It's worth a try. I'm pretty fucking drunk so my rational is not the best atm. I'm going to continue drinking everyday for the next 3 months while I'm here and continue to make wrong decisions.

>>2701511
I guess I can respect it if that's what would be comfy for you right now but yeah I've lived here for a year and never even tried to buy that stuff so I don't know. I'm too lazy to make my own food and go shopping and all that bullshit.

>>2701514
It's not the same
Banh mi is like cooked stuff with sauces and vegie and whatever the fuck thrown in. That's like a meal.

I just want some plain bread, some sliced ham, a little bit of mustard, and choke it down in 0.02 seconds like a bird

I'm taking a hard stance on restaurant culture and their predatory practice
Some fucking backwater in the middle of the alley next to a bunch of motorbike Italian restaurant was selling Ravioli and Spaghetti for 250,000 VND.
Fuck outta here dude.
I will not be raped by this amount of price gouging simply because dumb fuck tourists don't understand the money system here and think it's reasonable to pay 10 bucks for a plate of spaghetti

>>2701848
Forget about getting anything creamy or cheesy in SEA. It's gonna be overpriced and bullshit. They don't know how to do milk products right.
Personally I'm reconsidering my original intention of starting this winter's travel by city-hopping Hanoi to HCMS over six weeks. I don't have the resilient exuberant personality needed to deal with the continual hustling, the ordeal of being on foot amidst the insane motorbike traffic. So many adventurous foreigners get their patience and tolerance worn down to a nub by dealing with Viets and their insatiable greed. Laos looks much more amenable.

Can't you go to a bank and break your big bills? I always did that in the Philippines, got a big stack of 100 peso bills for use on the street.

I've heard from someone I know that it's difficult to find ATMs in many parts of VN, and that locals mostly use digital forms of payment. Is this true? Is it a concern at all? What's the best practice to get local cash? Exchange USD or ATM?

>>2701922
>locals mostly use digital forms of payment.
I'm in Nha Trang and it's a toss up if they take cards or not. Many don't and want Cash.
And if they have to take card they usually have to boot up their small little visa taking machine with a sigh of annoyance

There's a lot of ATM's here though

>>2701930
So I'd have no problem in Hanoi/Da Nang/Hue with a few hundred USD and hitting up ATMs?

>>2701947
Yes. There are tons of ATM. Just make sure they work with your card.
Agribank and TPbank are my fav. Both had very low to non-existent fees with decent conversion rates. Also good withdrawal limits.

>>2701947
You'd be fine in Hanoi but Da Nang is mostly rice paddies good luck finding an ATM there

>>2701918
>Forget about getting anything creamy or cheesy in SEA
Any supermarket is going to have gourmet cheeses imported directly from Europe. The standard stuff is A-OK too.

You're likely just salty that they prefer to add sugar to the cheese at restaurants but that doesn't mean they don't have good stuff.

European food sucks in SEA with few exceptions, go to Europe if you really need it

>>2702151
>only large ones will have them and at the double the price
The price is cheaper than other 3rd world countries, like America for instance.

However, if you're complaining that imported French cheese is more expensive than in the French countryside, you might be retarded
>European food sucks in SEA
The best Western food I've had was in SEA. Nice LARP dreamer, you've never traveled.

>>2702168
I've lived in Vietnam for over a year now and I don't think the western food here is good. Luckily I love Vietnamese food and can eat it daily without getting tired of it.

it's natural to complain about 2x the price, it's not because of shipping costs

it's also a valid thing to ask why they can't make decent cheese themselves?

Steak and french loaf are exceptions in Vietnam because of French influence, but almost everything else is bad
I haven't been able to find a yogurt in Vietnam without added gelatin, wtf??

IDK if Vietnam is like other countries where you have motorcycles of vastly varying speed capabilities all trying to share the highway with cars, buses, trucks, etc. It can get messy

Is Vietnam really as noisy as some people say? Hotels seem to be located on the busier roads nearly all the time, which sucks. Might end up doing more homestays, as they are often tucked away on quieter streets. I don't mind human & animal noises as much as traffic noise.

He can use whichever passport he wants. I entered Vietnam through Thailand and I'm an American. The country you're coming from doesn't matter.

>>2706057
I'm curious too. Planning on coming in on a German passport, it says no visa required for 45 days but I've also seen sources say that Germans should still get an e-visa. Why?

>>2706341
That's not my concern really, I trust that it truly is visa-free for Germany/Russia, but rather will they suspect he is a dual citizen/Canadian as well since his Russian passport has no sort of Canadian legitimacy atm.

I am in his exact situation. I've been to Vietnam with both passports and I prefer the Russian passport experience.
I usually stay in central and northern Vietnam so I don't even bother telling them that I live in Canada. Just tell them that I am Russian and they like me better. Especially the older generations.
As for the specifics - just roll up to immigration with the passport you wish to enter with and make sure you use the same one when you leave. That's pretty much.
The most hassle you'll experience is a CBSA agent at the airport when you return to Canada. They might ask why you don't have Vietnam stamps in your (Canadian) passport to which you say you used another passport to enter for visa reasons. This is usually enough for themnto wave you through.
Most of the time they don't even stop me and just wave me through after some preliminary questions. The trick is to get in the line of a tired looking agent and look tired yourself.

>>2707207
fwiw we're going from Canada to Bangkok, then transit via a different ticket to Hanoi, so they might only be sus as to why no Thai stamp on Russian passport?

>>2707217
Nah. They don't care.
The country you are entering only cares about stamping you in and out. As long as you are using the same passport and it aligns with your tickets then you're golden.

>>2707222
Would you suggest using the Rus passport to fly to Thailand from the start from Canada?

>>2707207
I'm just not sure how to interpret VN visa policy, one one hand "All citizens of Canada need a visa", but also holders of Russian passports don't. Which takes priority should it somehow come out that my friend is both? My instinct is to assume they'll latch onto any bullshit to squeeze you for some fee since >SEA

>>2707224
I don't know what the Russian visa situation is like in Thailand. I suspect it's quite lax considering so many Russians travel there for holidays.
At some point it's a question of hassle and convenience. If you don't mind filling in the e-visa thing then do that and save yourself the worry.

>>2707225
The passport that you decide to give them is the one that takes priority. Which one you hand them is up to you. Except when you are a citizen of the country you are entering, then it is expected for you to hand the passport of said country.
Basically if you enter VN with a Canadian passport then you are, in this context, a citizen of Canada because you entered the country as a Canadian citizen. If you enter with a Russian passport then the opposite applies.
To avoid bullshit only show them one passport so as not to confuse their insect brains. Don't even mention his Canadian citizenship. There's such a thing as running your big mouth and saying too much. There's nothing illegal about it, it's just a bit unusual which can lead a rookie or retard to turn something simple into a huge hassle.
No one will squeeze you for anything.

>>2707231
There is another element to all this I forgot to mention. When in doubt, or when faced with the prospect of what I call a "nigger plan", I opt for the safe tried and true path.
The only reason to fly into VN with a Russian passport as opposed to a Canadian one is to save $30 or so. Is your friend that much of a niggajew that he's gonna try to finesse some passport juggling that he doesn't feel confident in?
He won't save any time by skipping the visa process because he still has to wait for your ass to get a approved.
Ultimately both ways are simple and are also easy to turn into a fuck fuck circus by being retarded.

>>2707231
The thing is we enter Hanoi on sept 10 and I already have my e-visa

>>2707231

>>2707239
You'll be fine. Enjoy Hanoi

>>2707235
except the vn visa website is a fuckin shitshow and I don't like spending time uploading photos and jumping through hoops just for a visa I can get by arriving by using my second passport
not sure why his friend wouldn't do it
I'm the canadian with the second passport (german) and that's my plan when I arrive
why would they where I'm living. Nationality is nationality.

>>2707261
When is your trip? I can pop back into the /vng/ on the 11/12th and let you know how it worked for my buddy. Too late for a visa anyway.

>>2707271
who knows, but I've entered lots of countries on a german passport and swapped back and forth between the two
it doesn't matter
you can show them both as well if they're looking for a stamp, there's nothing illegal or wrong about entering a country on either/or of your passports

>>2707273
Pretty much this. I just prefer not to show two passports because it confuses third worlders sometimes and then I waste 30 minutes while they have a council on how to proceed until someone who isn't retarded is called.

Lao Cai got train service from Hanoi. As far north as you can get and still be in Southeast Asia. Sure gets gray and gloomy up there from December to March - what the hell, at least you'll be pale enough for the gals.

Just gonna interject in the daily trolling session as a usually lurking observer.
I love the overabundance of ellipses. I bet this makes anons seethe. SEA threads often make me wonder who's trolling who at this point, it's awesome.
Keep up the entertainment.

Is it true Vietnam mostly gets poor expats and tourists?

The rich expats and tourists go to Dubai, Singapore, London, Paris, Barcelona .... and the poor expats / tourists visit countries like Laos, Vietnam, Philppines?

Absolutely, this is just human nature. They’ll bang on with endless cope about the „lifestyle“ or „culture“. Raise the prices in Vietnam to London levels, see how many „expats“ show up. LMFAO!

About as ridiculous as flying 16 hours in economy on a long haul flight, and claiming you’re not interested in a lie flat bed in first class. Right. I’m sure they sleep upright in uncomfortable chairs back home too.

It’s always a lack of sex/money that motivates these people. The elaborate mental gymnastics must be exhausting. Always trying to convince the planet they’re not living in a backward, underdeveloped, third-world country where everything is subjectively/objectively worse than high-income nations. Or the thinly veiled prostitutes they’re dating/marrying are „different“, and genuinely give a shite about them.

Average people take one look at that nonsense and say „no thanks“. Those with wealth (and who value their time) wouldn’t consider that for all the tea in China. Facts.

>>2707805
ok white dork.

Vietnam has poverty tourist, communist sympathiser, those looking for something different, etc. Expat? LMFAO. Quality of life is an absolute laugh. Nobody wakes up and choses to live there full-time, they simply don’t have other options (conscious or not). It’s the same story in the Philippines. Most of these guys „fall in love“ with some girl, and when they wake up (or she moves on to someone richer/younger/hotter), they almost universally leave the country.

Vietnam isn't even that much more inexpensive than many other nations
I'm spending 200,000+ on every meal

That's like pre-covid America tier pricing

I got to a bar and spend 6 bucks per glass of rum, that's the same kind of price you could find in some midwest town in America

You have some weird ideas about the west

>>2708418
>Vietnam isn't even that much more inexpensive than many other nations
>I'm spending 200,000+ on every meal

Yes it fucking is. Mcdonalds is $20 for a meal, sushi is $60-100 for dine-in restaurant. Vietnam is cheaper... which attracts poor expats.

>>2708421
Both of these things are newer phenomenon
Western prices have just hyperinflated so much that it makes other shit look poor
Most people in the states live off of welfare anyways buying shit with food stamps
You thing negros could afford to live in Vietnam for years?

A poor person in America would not be able to survive paying Vietnamese prices

>>2708460
Nigga you can eat for a dollar or two in most of Vietnam. Probably less if you cook but I don't cook.

>>2708418

Wealthy people do travel to developing countries, but their luxury experience is very different from that of the common backpacker. For instance, the latest survey shows 77% of tourists who visit Thailand enjoying street food...wealthy people are the other 23%.
>>2708405
Sounds like you are doing your own coping. "I have no freedom to spend half the year overseas because of the life choices I have made, therefore Southeast Asia sucks and is horrible, and only trashy people consider spending their winters there."
>raise the prices to London levels
There is a big selection of First World-priced hotels and villas for rent in Da Nang, dumbass. American vacationers and Russian oligarch families have more money than they know what to do with.
>not interested in a lie flat bed
No, I'm not interested in dropping three months' travel expenses just so I can lay awake for 16 hours on a stupid first class bed. Are you such a spoiled, privileged faggot that a partial day of enforced wakefulness in a padded seat is tantamount to torture in your mind?
>subjectively/objectively worse than high-income nations
Bullshit. You are merely ignoring the upsides and focusing on the downsides. Funny enough, it doesn't cost me any more to live and travel in America than it does to live and travel in Southeast Asia.
>lack of sex
I choose celibacy in Asia just like I do in America. More projection on your part.

Why are foreigners who are Japanese, Taiwanese, and Korean business owners in Vietnam? They generate a tonne of jobs.

However, white foreigners living in Vietnam are either irresponsible English teachers or digital nomads who neither pay taxes nor create work.

Why are white people like this?

>>2708942
white dorks are shitbag english teachers. their only skill in life is speaking a langauge they grew up with.

i have yet to meet a whyte business owner.

>>2708483
>nigga what. banh mi is 20K. pho is 40K.
in some remote side alley or a small town
pho in central location with AC will be 80-120k, there are also lot of places selling banh mi for 50k
food isn't cheap in Vietnam unless you enjoy sitting on tiny plastic chairs on a dirty sidewalk

>>2708832
ur in no position to speak, white shitbag english teacher. go get a real job

>>2708942
I somehow find that hard to believe. Just looking at Jobstreet, there's plenty of western companies that have branches in Vietnam, mostly in Saigon. This alone signifies there' plenty of white workers in Vietnam. And at the same time this means there's plenty of opportunities for people with science or tech jobs in Vietnam. Surely, most of those would more likely go to places like Singapore, Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai, or even KL, but the "everyone is an English teacher" meme does not seem legit if you do the most basic research.

>>2708955
>And at the same time this means there's plenty of opportunities for people with science or tech jobs in Vietnam

whytes don't do tech or science in vietnam. y? tech sector in vietnam filled with many young grads, who r working for cheap. science or medicine, pay is low. no foreign nurse, very foreign docs in vietnam.

r u even in vietnam? 99% whyte expats r shitbag eNglish tEachers... 1% dIgital nOmads

>>2708955
o I'm truly curious about this. What is wrong with white people in Vietnam? They could be British, German, French, American, South African or Australian. About 90% of white people you meet basically talk about weed, how sexy Vietnamese women are and how much they love Vietnam even though they couldn't name 3 Vietnamese poets or artist. That's not even getting into the disgusting behavior from white whether at work, on the street or the behavior restaurants. Do they really have no shame? Especially when it comes to common disrespectful and racist behavior that's accepted.

>>2708957
Did you have a stroke or something? No need to get so nervous the moment someone questions your worldview.

I just had a Bahn mi for 30k in Hanoi old quarter. Pho before for 40k. You must be retarded or just a liar

>>2708962
did the pho place had AC?
yes you can go to some side alley and have it at that price but if you want some quality prepare to pay much more
here is one place in HCMC, outside D1 so it's not for tourists: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ph%E1%BB%9F+Vi%E1%BB%87t+Nam/@10.7881475,106.6883246,18z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x31752f22105e19b3:0x80627d765acbf473!8m2!3d10.7881865!4d106.6885695!16s%2Fg%2F11l9870tz8

I'm trying to figure out if it's a scam like most people would say or if I just might have found a bar girl who is interested in me, feel free to call me delusional, happy for a wake up call. But, I will plead my case.

Matched a girl on Tinder, -16 years younger, pretty and has kinda sexy photos but nothing revealing. Eventually we talk about work and she says "okay honestly, I work for kyabakura as a hostess, we have drinks with customers and talk but nothing else". I say okay then I kinda question her on the job. I ask her if she would want to go out that time, and she says she can see if she can get the time off of work to see me (green flag). I also told her bc she drinks with her clients, we should just do something else, and she agrees.

Later on we are talking about more specifically and I mention I could see her the friday night that I arrive, which I understand is going to be a busy day for work. I said I could meet her after work - which is 2am, so she was kind of surprised (is it safe for a foreigner to go out then?), then mentioned she would be fined if she takes it off, so we kind of just said that we will see.

We had a bit of conversation about drinking and she said she wants to see how much I can drink, which is def a red flag but also not a super weird thing to say. We didn't say we are going to any particular place. Other misc things is she would double text me if I dont respond, got into a talk about sexual preferences but didn't turn into anything dirty and had some talk about mental health and suicide.

But anyway, been talking nearly 2 weeks pretty much daily. I'm just wondering if she would really go through this much effort to scam someone.

So whats the verdict? Am I getting scammed?

>>2710365
To add:
I'm a tourist coming to meet my friend, but decided to look on Tinder. I've met a few young girls (20-22) and some of them work in Japan town, which I've heard has a bit of a shady reputation. One of them in a bookkeeper, so I'm not concerned about that, she also works during the daytime. Another says she works at a Korean spa and does nails, hair and other services.. she also mentioned that she wears an ao dai for her work, which is kinda like "huh". The last one says she is a hostess that drinks/entertains customers. They seem to get off of work around 1am.

Regarding the latter two, I'm wondering if I should be concerned that they are also sex workers? As far as them approaching me to pay them for services, so far it certainly doesn't seem that way, and I plan on meeting them doing something like coffee or just walking. Plan on avoiding any potential scam regarding going out to a specific restaurant/bar.

So assuming those go well, and since I'd be looking for someone to really potentially connect with, I'm curious as to if it seems likely that they also do some sort of services on the side? Is it okay to ask?

>>2710365
did she ask for money? then how she can scam you??
just don't make a most basic mistake and fall in love with a bar girl

>I've heard has a bit of a shady reputation
it's an upscale red light district
nothing "bit of shady" there

It's the same pinoy who posts on Philippines general

>>2708950
You can easily get a nice banh mi in AC for 35k at most.

Imo too many indians in VN
