I got stuck in Danang for 2 years during Covid. Best 2 years of my life! I'm back in Los angeles now and I'm ready to go back to Vietnam. During Covid, we were able to travel domestically throughout Vietnam and I saw so many places and the great part, NO TOURISM!

I also had the chance to live in Vietnam during the COVID years, and honestly, it changed my life. While the world was shutting down, Vietnam opened up to me in the most unexpected and beautiful way. With no international tourists, I got to experience the real soul of the country — from the peaceful streets of Hoi An to the misty highlands of Da Lat. The locals welcomed me like family, even with the language barrier, and I learned that kindness doesn't need translation. Traveling domestically during that time felt like stepping into a secret world — sacred temples without crowds, empty beaches, and nature at its purest. Vietnam became more than just a place I visited — it became a part of who I am. Now that I’m back in Los Angeles, there’s not a day that goes by without me missing a bowl of street-side phở, the sound of motorbikes, or a genuine smile from a stranger. I’m beyond grateful for that chapter of my life. And like many here, I’m already planning my return. Vietnam didn’t just leave an impression — it left a piece of itself in my heart. Thank you for capturing that spirit so perfectly in your videos.

I’m so impressed, not only with the beautiful energetic Viet Nam, but your ability to show all that I want to see. You’re the best. It’s now on my bucket list.

I've traveled to Vietnam before, and honestly, no video can fully capture how amazing it feels to be there in person. The people, the food, and the scenery are unforgettable.

You just added 2 more items to my bucket list. Vietnam has changed so much since I was a teenager in the 1960's. What a lovely country. Stay safe.

My first visit in 2019 was a brief stay in HCMC followed by 2 1/2 amazing weeks in Dalat--wonderful food, amazing coffee and lots of fun. Second visit was 3 months in Hanoi, an amazing city that I couldn't even see everything I wanted, since there's so much to see and do. Plus trips to Cam Pha and Ha Long Bay (only disappointment, way too touristy!). Readying for my third trip now, starting in Hanoi and going to Ninh Binh, Nha Trang, Hoi An and Hue. It's an amazing place, safe, nice people and amazing food. <br>Thanks for a really great video. You really captured Vietnam.
