Can we get a proper Vietnam thread going?
Any anons planning on the making the trip or have been there to share travel advice
North or South it's all just a motorbike hire away
>>
inb4 white faggotry and ricecel coping

Would be nice. I'm planning a trip, north to south, 44 days in a couple of months. I plan to stop in Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Hue, Da Nang, Hoi Han, Da Lat, HCM City. I aint riding no motorbike tho and I got a suitcase to haul around so I need it ez mode enough for that, but any thoughts or suggestions would be great

why for that length of trip and moving around

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone who is an expat living in Vietnam could give their insight on what it's like to live in Vietnam.

What's it like to work there/how did you find your current job?

What made you decide to move there?

What is the social scene like for an American?

I feel like I have so many more questions, but just wanted to keep it simple. I've just been curious on the topic and would love to know more!
>>
>>2721782
Spent 6 weeks in Da Nang after getting my credit and debit cards comprised in HCM city, be careful , I don't even know how it happened. Da Nang is very nice, get up at dawn and walk along the beach it's surreal they are packed with people, swimming, dancing, exercising. You will get stalked by women hotels and food is great there and affordable
>>
>>2721896
VN is on my list for this upcoming travel season, but after Laos. Laos is much quieter and poorer, but I think it will be much more to my liking.
The possibility of someone entering your room and taking down your card info is real, if you kept some of your cards in your luggage.
Only use your primary travel card for ATM withdrawals and trusted online purchases. Don't pay for a cheap hotel booking directly from their iffy site, don't pay with card at POS terminals.
>>
>You will get stalked by women
ploise explain
>>
>>2722131
they have secret facebook groups. the groups contain 100K+ female members, invite only. they dox (stalk) white dorks. cheap white dork, broke white dorks, sexpat white dorks .

>>2722139
well yeah that's every community all over the world. bitches be gossipin over white men

rough. thanks for the heads up, i try keep an intermediary between my cards and anyone else as much as possible then (booking.com, grab, google pay, etc). i usually stay in decent enough hotels so we'll see
>Laos
have not really looked much into finding a decent route through, idc too much for going off the beaten path. just doing a very simple north vietnam to south vietnam and then through cambodia and back into thailand for this winter
>>
I am bringing my Thai "girlfriend" on a holiday to Vietnam, we're going to Ho Chi Minh, Da Nang, Hanoi (day-trip to Ha Long Bay whilst there). What are some of the best things to see in Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi? I have a lot planned for Da Nang but I am not sure what to do in these 2 cities? I am talking normie stuff here, not too interested in war-related stuff, I did some of that already in Cambodia regarding Khmer Rouge and I just find it depressing

I haven't been yet but I have been planning things for my own trip so take what I say in that context

https://vietnam.travel/things-to-do/7-must-see-attractions-hcmc
https://vietnam.travel/things-to-do/ho-chi-minh-city-itinerary

I feel bitches would like these things:

Hanoi
old quarter + dong xuan market
temple of literature
Hanoi train street
water puppet show
everyone seems to recommend a day trip (At least) to ha long bay, I will probably do route 1 on https://www.klook.com/activity/7448-halong-bay-day-tour-hanoi-halong-bay/ which is ~£32 from Hanoi

Da Nang
ba na mountains

HCM
I didn't really look into it yet but it's got some observation deck in a tall building, Mekong delta day tour

So I've been to a few Japanese restaurants in Vietnam.
Why is it that the Japanese are always the loudest? I'm not sure if this is also the case for restaurants in Japan, they have a reputation of "keeping it to themselves", but I went to Izakaya/Kushiyaki-style restaurants, the two males Japanese basically talked so loud that they dwarfed the other table of 5 Vietnamese and a couple of 2 Chinese. It was bizarre.
The same also happened in a restaurant specialized in Soba, a table of 2, but they talked very loud, as if they were the only ones in the restaurant then.

I miss the coffee the most. Oh and buncha

I'm there for nearly 5 weeks in Dec-Jan. Good idea? I want to explore stuff from north to south, using scooters to see shit from wherever I see.

>egg coffee
This is more like caramel dessert, and not a drink in the traditional sense. Also depends on the shop, some will, some won't sprinkle on cinnamon powder, some will be bad, and some will be good.
>salt
enhances the taste, can't go wrong with a pinch of salt

nothing special, just a place to walk surrounded by a huge amount of traffic (that's their definition of "walking street")

extremely noisy and overpriced

>lots of places to eat n drink

there are some low/mid-quality museums and that's it

Weird thread
I was in hcmc last month and received a bunch of positive attention from normal vietnamese women
I dress nicely and am clean cut and white in my late 30s
Dating was not a big deal at all, and the women I took out for coffee or dinner were happy and excited to follow along when I brought them to my apartment after
Vietnamese women seem like women anywhere - interested in foreigners if they are charming and presented well

I don't do "no effort casual fucking", so I can't comment on that lifestyle. I enjoy dating and seduction and flirtation, and already have a handle on language barrier thanks to my time in other SEA countries.

Tldr viet women want to be charmed and for a man to make them feel pretty and desired, same as all women

Unless you're a nigger or an Indian of course. Forget Vietnam if you're looking for "love".
>>
>>2727055
yes that's reality
by being white you're already in top 20% in terms of looks
being clean and tidy is essential everywhere in Asia
negative comments here are just ricels trying to gatekeep

Heard a rumour the North Face/Kathmandu factory is around Da Nang and you can pick up stuff from the local markets for way cheaper than what you'd pay retail in the West. Anyone lend credence to it?

Doubtful there is much local demand for winter wear in Da Nang, also doubtful that anything swiped from the supply chain would be sold at cut-rate prices to a foreigner when the Vietnamese damn well know what it retails for.

Cambodian men literally pimp Vietnamese girls to white paedophiles. Vietnamese are in the bottom rung of Cambodian society and are the ones being fucked by expats. Vietnamese girls and women fill Cambodian brothels.

Inside k11, Phnom Penh's notorious child brothel.
None - Do not Delete
November 18, 2003

Ushered into a sort of makeshift living room, I am told that in the daytime the neighborhood is a typical Cambodian slum, full of street vendors and the thick, mysterious flow of motorbikes. On the walls are several signs in Vietnamese, local beer ads and Backstreet Boys posters. I sit on a crusty sofa, across from the Vietnamese pimp speaking broken Cambodian to Mr. Yo.


Four young Vietnamese girls enter the room. The pajama-clad quartet storms in like the kids they are, all giggles and restless energy amidst the boredom of the metal and concrete room. The girls, who look about 10 to 12 years old, climb over the pimp like he's their father, tweaking his ears and messing his hair. One sits down next to me. There is no sign of fear or physical abuse. I try to get my head around the family atmosphere and keep the noticeably sexualized youngsters on the other side of the room.


Mr. Yo expects me to indulge. Apparently, I hadn't made myself clear.


"You don't think?this is what I wanted to do? Do you do this sort of thing?"


"Yes."


"How?"


"Because they are Vietnamese it doesn't matter," the Cambodian Yo states simply. "We wouldn't let our girls do this."

There's definitely a bunch of TNF and Patagonia shit for sale in the local markets but it's of the standard dubious quality as that sold elsewhere in SEA. This is just the kind of rumour that they would push to get whitey to pay $20 for a knockoff fanny pack. SEA has always had a situation where a small amount of the stuff is "legit" and the rest fake, but that says more about the quality of the real deal than anything special about the shit they're selling. If you want a branded fanny pack just get one. Just don't pay anything close to half of retail.

white people of every nationality have ruined this country

you're all the same and I hate you, I'm cool and smart and interesting and you're all boring and gay and cringe and you make it more difficult for me to connect with locals for any purpose, romantic or friendly, I always have to undo several years of "wow all white tourists are horrible" trauma you fucking losers have caused before I can finally have a good meaningful conversation with a local

just stay home or go to some gay "normal" country stop fucking up the last cool place to go

if I see you faggots in a tour group wearing matching vests and helmets again tomorrow I'm going to throw a piece of rebar in the spokes of your scooter and send you off the mountain

if you're from europe or you're a slav I mean all of this exponentially more than I mean it for other better whites

The problem is, you are boring and gay and cringe and full of egotistical delusions as well.

Get good, or else go on coping and seething with your manlet rage fantasies.

Viet food is fucking delicious. Fresh herbs, greens, spicy salsa, peanut...the complex flavor combo mogs. Definitely makes me want to make my way over there from Thailand.
>>
>>2730946
no, Phu Quoc is plastic overpriced tourist trap
Vietnam is for those looking for adventure, for convenience and hassle-free honeymoon Thailand is way better
>>
>>2730983
>Fresh herbs
This is one of my favorite things about it. Not just a little bit for an accent like most cuisines, but big heavy-handed piles of them. It rules.
My other favorite thing about Vietnamese food is the contrast between these fresh bright happy flavors and the funky fermented flavors, right in the same dish. Nothing like fresh oregano and mắm tôm.
>>
>>2730993
Where in Thailand would you suggest? Tourist trap isn't necessarily bad for us I imagine because we won't be leaving the resort to do much but if there is a better value beach holiday that'd be great. Thai and Vietnamese foods work for us so that's a bonus.
>>
>>2731001
some quiet beach resort unless you like big cities such as BKK?
Samui, Chang (although getting there is troublesome), Phuket, Phi Phi, etc. have quieter beaches, just avoid most popular beaches
Phuket is more touristy out of these
There are also even quieter places such as Kut or Mak islands
about Christmas-February since it will be very busy
in the autumn it might rain a lot
>>
Yoooo what the fuck man how is Vietnam so much better than Thailand?

I went to Nha Trang to see and although I had some complaints I really enjoyed my time and stayed there for 3 months
Now I'm doing a Visa hop and thinking I would try Thailand for a week
Specifically Pattaya since Vietnam is kinda strict on brothels and gambling and I wanted to try it out just once at least

It's so fucking amazing how much better Vietnam is, like it's not even close, I will never say shit about any price haggling Vietnamese ever again, holy hell.

If I went to Thailand first before Vietnam I would assume every SEA country is like this and never return

no decent hotel will ask money for your passport in Thailand

Why did they have your passport? They only need to look at it at check in.

If some SEAgook tried to hold my property hostage I would obliterate him. I can't imagine what you must look like of such people feel comfortable scamming you.
>>
>>2731099
You're right that he was retarded to fall for that, but you wouldn't obliterate shit. If you tried, even if you could take the one guy (I'll give you the benefit and assume that you could) you'd be dogpiled by other Thais, and then after that your ass would be hauled to jail.

>What's it like to work there/how did you find your current job?
The Vietnamese people, for the most part, scam each other constantly as a matter of course. This is getting better as time goes on (especially with the culling of many dysfunctional scam companies due to covid) but as a foreigner you really want to check out a company before you sign on. Contracts are almost always worthless and function only to offload company risk onto you- you have zero recourse without connections.
The big English centers are usually a safe bet- they won't be the best job you've ever had but they'll pay on time and be consistent with what they expect.
>What made you decide to move there?
Fed up with US political brainrot c. 2020.
>What is the social scene like for an American?
Quite nice. Expats are always a mixed bag (normal people don't pack up and move to SEA) but english-speaking VN are cool. Non-homosexual VN men are almost universally complete bros. VN women will strike you as very feminine. My sincere advice is to NOT live in the designated "foreigner district" of whatever city you pick- go to them for hobby clubs or social events only.

Yes this is true but I see fatties by my own standards in the street and I want to harpoon those whales. Also I've been here over a year so I definitely know how bullshit the pics are.

Thousands and thousands of Business Visa holders were unceremoniously thrown out of Vietnam n the middle of Covid. Turns out it was a high ranking immigration official setting up the shell companies issuing those visa letters for over a decade.

You can have a 30 day visa. That’s it. Visa runs? Feeling lucky? They really don’t want you there. They don’t even want millionaire retirees. They don’t care if you own property there. Just no.

They definitely don’t want digital nomads. Digital nomads don’t pay taxes. Don’t mention what you do if they ask. Immigration in Vietnam now brutal.

in the past, whites were unique in the population and had a reputation of being well-off because many whites were expat execs in Vietnam who were there to lead and grow local branches of global multinationals. nowadays, whites play a lesser expat role since capable local Viet execs are ubiquitous and can do it for far less pay. most whites now also comprise of poor “digital nomads” or english teachers barely making it by and have a negative connotation to their skin color given wide negativity against whites from the usa.

I also didn't like the vibe of the Western tourists/digital nomads there.

You should document all the temples of Vietnamese female generals and courtesans.


The Vietnanese have dozens of temples dedicated to Vietnamese female generals and Vietnamese courtesans who defeated Han Chinese men across northern Vietnam. They have annual holidays and rituals at the temples every lunar year.

Vietnamese women defeated Han Chinese men in multiple wars over the past 2,000 years and, capturing them in combat and beheading them, or sexually seducing them, drugging them and tying them up in burlap bags.

In 40-43 AD, Vietnamese women rose up in rebellion with a female majority army led by 33 female generals and female rulers (Trung sisters).

Each Vietnamese female general (aged 17 to 40) was appointed as feudal Princess of a particular region by the Trung sisters. They killed, captured, tied up, beheaded and executed tons of Han Chinese men.

One Vietnamese woman general fought naked Han Chinese men and beheaded them, another Vietnamese woman general took off her own boudice and fought the Han Chinese men with her breasts exposed. Vietnamese women generals clothes were soaked with blood of Han Chinese men.

In 1407-1427, Vietnamese women both fought in the battlefield as generals against the Han Chinese and also Vietnamese women courtesans seduced Han Chinese soldiers by dancing and singing in their undergarments with their leg and arms showing, convincing the Han Chinese men to sleep in burlap gunnysacks and let the Vietnamese women tie the burlap bags each night to stay safe from mosquitos. They pampered, wined and dined the men.
>>
>>2733932
>>2734101
The Vietnamese women then drugged the wine of the Han Chinese while sexually seducing them to make sure they couldn't resist, then when they tied them in the burlap sacks, they beat the sacks with sticks and then threw the sacks into rivers and canals, drowning them.

The Vietnamese women literally used femdom bondage in war to entrap and kill Han Chinese men. The Vietnamese won this rebellion.

There were multiple other wars between those two rebellions with Vietnamese female generals and after them, but they mostly involve the same as the first one, Viet women capturing and beheading Han Chinese men en masse.

Since Han Chinese come from a patriarchal and patrilineal Confucian society, being beaten and having their heads taken as trophies by smaller Viet women was humiliating. Most of these women were 17-20 years old, a few were older at 30 or 40 years old.


The names of some of the Han Chinese male generals beheaded by Vietnamese female generals are recorded in the temples dedicated to the women.

The only reason one of the Han Chinese male general's name is recorded in history for posterity is that he was BTFO and publicly beheaded by a 19 year old Vietnamese woman while tied up.

See the names of the generals and courtesans here. You can search for the address of their temples in their villages or cities.

https://desuarchive.org/k/thread/55073025/#q55084098

Entire armies of Han Chinese men were beheaded and cut to pieces by young Vietnanese women.

Entire armies of Han Chinese men were roofied and tied up in sleepsack bondage by Vietnamese women and then killed by the women.
>>
>>2733932
>>2734101
>>2734106
One of the Vietnamese women generals in the Trung sisters rebellion revolted because her twin sister was taken as a concubine by a Han official.

She then beheaded tied up Han generals after capturing them, after her twin sister was taken into a Han harem.

The Vietnamese courtesans slept with the Han soldiers before tying them in the bondage burlap sacks and drown them (the Vietnamese female generals are said for have protected their personal sexual honour in the written accounts at their temples, but the courtesans aren't and everyone knows what courtesans do)

Han men had sex and got killed by the women (courtesans) they had sex with, or got killed by the relatives (female generals) of the women they had sex with.


The Han Chinese men were sexist and patriarchal and overconfident, thinking Vietnanese women generals couldn't defeat and overpower them in battle, before they were defeated and beheaded. They made marriage proposals to the Vietnanese female generals because of their beauty before being defeated and killed by them.

The Han Chinese soldiers tied up in burlap sacks by the Vietnamese courtesans were overwhelmed with lust and fell in love with the Vietnamese courtesans, and thought the Vietnamese women loved them back and that they wouldn't be harmed by them.

You have to pick your poison, Hanoi is far more conservative so of course it's not very open to that.
Saigon being less politically influenced by the communist party and having a different history is much more receptive to western values. As a result ladyboys of course flock there.

It all boils down to how much you value a girlfriend with a small penis.
