I'm going to Vietnam in two weeks and it's great to have your videos as a preview! Thank you so much for these great works and wish you happy and safe trip😘
Thank you, Maria. Our Hoi An video will be out next week as well. Thank you for watching and safe travels!!

@@MariaLin-li4jl how is it so far?
@@huetran4361 It was wonderful!!! The food is affordable and amazing, the vibe is relaxing and the people were really friendly to me. Just got back home yesterday but I will surely travel to Vietnam again!
@@MariaLin-li4jl amazing to hear that, glad you had a fun trip
Watching your videos is making me so excited for our upcoming trip to Vietnam!
You should be excited, Erica! Vietnam is fantastic!! Thank you for watching and safe travels.
Cheers!!🍻
Great video, as always. I loved the smoky ice cream balls segment and Carrie dropping the coaster at the outro! Thanks guys, keep 'em coming.
Thanks, Michael!!! 😆
Cheers!!🍻
You guys are becoming my favorite travel couple.....the way you get involved with the locals is GREAT! Good humor! 🎉🎉
Thank you, Paul!! 😃
The vietnamese coffee is excellent too
Great video, glad you two had a great time. Can't wait to see more
Thanks so much for watching - more to come 😊. Cheers 🍻
Man this makes us want to go back & see more of Vietnam. Hanoi was cool but Hoi An looks VERY different😅 I think the food there is what shocked us most. We fully expected to like it, but not to the point where we seek out Vietnamese restaurants everywhere we go🤣 Great video guys & can't wait to see more of Vietnam!! (PS Trey audibly shouted 'hell yeah!' when Brian was talking about cold beers on the beach LOL)
We have never turned down cold beers on the beach! See you two in Malaysia!!!!!!!!🍻🏖
Great! As always!!
Thank you, Dan!!
Love It! Cheers!
Thank you!! 🍻
I love Hoi An .... another amazing video !!! Thank you!
Thank you, Amy. Our video on Hoi An will be released on Saturday. We had so much fun with this one!!
Another great video! Loved the couple of bloopers at the end. 😂🤣
Thank you, Lorrie!! 😀
You guys are awesome!
Thank you, Peter!!
Another excellent video. Thanks, you too.
Thank you for watching, Nicole!!!
Cheers!!🍻
Heading to Vietnam in a few weeks - can’t wait!
Thank you for watching, Wendy!! Enjoy Vietnam!!!
Cheers!!🍻
Loved the video
Food looked great
Stay safe 🇬🇧👍
Thank you, Philip!!
Cheers!!
Well Done! Nailed the food choices! LaRue was my favorite go to cold beer.
We enjoyed all of the cheap options!! 😆🍻
Lol ok NO to the smoky ice cream 👍 great video! Cheers 🍻
Thank you Ricko!!
Cheers!!🍻
I'm a bit late to the party but...everything looked amazing. I cannot wait to travel there and enjoy; as always, thanks for sharing.
We loved the food in Thailand, especially in Chang Mai. It is better to be late than never!! 😀 Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
Love the blooper!
😂
10:32 mesmerised by that man on his bike with 3 children driving off in the background. I as a grown adult would be terrified.
We would see entire families of 5 on those scooters!!! 😳
Glad you liked the 7 Bridges IPA, we’re totally going there! Cheers!
You two will have a great time!! We really enjoyed Vietnam and plan to go back next year. We have a lot more of SE Asia to explore and five months just won't be enough time. 😀
Cheers!!🍻
Hi Guys,
Thanks for another great video. The prices seem very reasonable, except for the 7 Bridges beer. I would have to splurge and try it to see if it was worth the extra money. I loved the outtakes at the end of the video, so more of them, please.
Yeah, the cheap beer is hard to pass up at that price. HA! We will do outtakes if they are worthy. 😆
Cheers!!🍻
What a life !
Brian and Carrie are so lovely couple. They are so awesome
Im looking forward for watching the videos on your next journey
It's positive, interesting, and informative !
Great work and enjoy your stay ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words. We really enjoyed Vietnam and plan to come back next year. And thank you for watching our channel! ❤
Brian, I love your beer slurping face 😁
HA!! I didn't even know that I had a beer slurping face!! 😆
Love your videos. I’m living vicariously through you’re travels. I’m waiting for my partner to retire so we can do the same as both of you. I was in Chiang Mai just a month ago, and I thought of your clip on it. Is there a trip to Taiwan? I’m from there and think you would enjoy the experience. A lot more expensive than Thailand and Vietnam, but worth the experience, especially the street food and night markets that they’re known for.
Hi, Nancy. We are planning on getting to Taiwan next year when we return to SE Asia. We love the area that much!! Thank you for watching our channel!!
Cheers!!🍻
Thank you so much for these videos. We are planning a trip to Southeast Asia in 2024 and you are providing lots of inspiration. Any chance you will be going to Bali as part of this itinerary?
Hi, Robin. We will not be heading to Bali this time. We are going to explore Penang, Malaysia after we visit Phuket. Thank you for watching!
Cheers 🍻
Another great video, thanks, what was the name & location of the restaurant that you visited?
The restaurant we went to is on the main street, just past the japanese bridge in Hoi An. The name is on the sign just as we were heading down the alley. Thanks so much for watching!!
Another quality video guys. Good overview of the street food and beer scene in Vietnam. You are trying all sorts of new dishes in your travels. Any issues with any of them? Like sickness or food poisoning? Is this food scene better than Thailand? Always appreciate your insight.
Hi, Robert. We haven't had any problems at all. The street food in Thailand is amazing and we would pick Thai food over Vietnamese. However, we really enjoyed Vietnam and plan to return next spring for another tour. as always, thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
Enjoying your videos! Can you share what brand is your fanny packs? Looks safer than a handbag!
Hi, Jan! the links to our fanny packs are in the video description down towards the bottom. Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
Absolutely biggest draw for me is the lantern festival. Absolutely love dumplings. Outstanding from start to finish
Thank you, Drew, we had a great time. Our video next week will be all about Hoi An!! Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
That look like a hotdog taco at :45. At least look like sliced hotdogs or sausages in one of the tubs. OK and then it looks like you got a Nutella onion pop tart. Quang noodle? I thought that was the name of the alien that take over the world in the Simpsons. Larue. Reminds me of SCTV Johnny LaRue. Rip John candy.
Always look forward to your comments Purdue!! 😆😂
Cheers!!🍻
very cool video. Looking forward to your Vietnam expense report. I am retiring next year and going to hit the road as well but given the state of the markets/economy at the moment I am researching more of my Plan B destinations (i.e. nice and cheap) 😅 Any plans to hit India, Nepal or Sri Lanka?
We will have our monthly cost video on Vietnam out in a couple of weeks and one on Thailand sometime next month. We are not heading to India, Nepal, or Sri Lanka but will be heading to Malaysia and will have a cost video on it as well. Thank you for watching and commenting!!
Cheers!!🍻
Great video as always! $ 1.56 a beer? Wow, Brian must be happy with that. Glad you two are enjoying Veitnam. How's it compare to Portugal? Dan& Marj
Hi, Dan. Vietnam compares very well with Portugal. It is less expensive, and the food is great. The only problem is that you can only stay for 30 days without having to leave to update your visa.
Cheers!!🍻
I haven’t had a chance to comment in a while (work…), great Viet Nam videos - my wife is actually considering Viet Nam! I’m working on using up some miles with a stop in Hanoi (24 hours) on the way to Singapore, how much time should I plan on for traveling from the hotel (intercontinental) to the airport? Also - Da Nang or Hoi An? Thanks and enjoy travel over work!
The city center in Hanoi is about 30 minutes from the airport. If you only have a couple of days we would stay in Hoi An. The Hoi An video will be out next week to give you an idea. Thank you for watching and glad you are able to comment again!! 😀
Cheers!!🍻
You gotta keep doing the bloopers lol
HAHA!! Thank you for watching!! 😆
hi new sub here, been to VN several times, even i avoid the street food abroad unless i see them cook right in front of me, my friend actually got sick n went to hospital from street food in 90s
Thank you so much for the sub!! We very much appreciate the support!!
Cheers!!🍻
Were those smoked birds with beaks still on them and full smoked frogs on sticks? And Carrie you know me, I'd crack up everytime someone said 'dong'! LOL..... Some of those dishes looked delish though! Except those ice balls Brian! Ha Ha! See ya both in a few months! XOXO 😘
We are looking forward to some backyard BBQ Norma!! See you soon!! ❤🍻
That coconut, peanut dessert looks delicious. I'd recommend taking a food tour like "Steph and Pete" did so they can show you how to find the best places and how to eat the food. The smoking ice cream isn't for taste, it's just for fun because you're supposed to breathe through your nose imitating a dragon blowing smoke out of it's nose/mouth...also, it looks like you waited too long to eat it as all the smoke was gone. You missed cao lau, which is what Hoi An is known for. They also have some of the best banh mi around (2-3 famous shops in the area).
We have a video coming out this Saturday and we highlight Cao Lau. We also had Banh Mi at one of the highly-rated shops but didn't add it to the video. There's just too much good food for one video!! 😀
~ Hello. Thank you. Brian. 👍💕👫

🌹🌸🌷🌻🌺🌺🌻
Thank you for watching our channel, Giang! ❤
Have both of you go to a floating market in Can Tho city ? Asking from CA/USA
Hi, Hung. We have not done that yet, looking to come back next year for new experiences. Thank you for watching!!
Cheers!!🍻
The jumper cable hooking the battery to the ice cream smoker would have deterred me from having that dessert. 🤣
HA!! Seriously!! 😂
If you guys are into coffee, would love to see you compare the salted coffee, peanut coffee, coconut coffee, vs egg coffee. :)
They all sound delicious!! We compared the coconut and egg coffee in our Hanoi video. We enjoyed both but loved the egg coffee. Thank you for watching and commenting!!
Cheers!!🍻
Vietnamese and Thai food are both incredible, but Thai *street* food is better. There are often whole markets totally dedicated to food in Thailand, while in Vietnamese markets there's only typically a few random stalls here and there (as you obviously know 😂).
I remember having that 7 Bridges beer a craft beer festival in Hanoi! I miss all the cheap craft beer there.
Thailand is huge food court!! We just returned to Thailand and looking forward to a night market soon!! 🍻
If you happen to be returning to Saigon soon I highly recommend Ho Thi Ky night market in Dist. 10. Its a whole street selling nothing but street food like in Thailand. There are several food markets around Saigon but you gotta go out of dist. 1 for them.
@@Huyenmeow That sounds amazing! We lived in the North, and explored mostly just Northern and central Vietnam while we we there. We actually somehow didn't make it to Saigon, even though we were there for a year. We will definitely add that to the list. We can't wait to go back to Vietnam again...we miss it!
Have you try the Banh Mi Phượng (Vietnamese sandwich) ?
We did and loved them! We decided not to add to the video because everyone else already has. 😀
Going to emulate all you ate and drank 😆😉
Hi Carrie & Brian ..
I love watching your videos, my wife and I are very similar age to you and we are hoping to retire asap but probably in about 3 years.
When we retire we have calculated that we will have approximately £3800 per month, not sure what that is in dollars. Do you think that will be enough to retire on in Phuket and Da Nang taking into consideration all the flights and travel costs? We live in UK.
Do you ever go back home to the US Or do you just travel in the winter? We havn't made up our minds yet..
Hi! Yes, we do feel that would be sufficient. Da Nang was considerably cheaper for accomodations, but Phuket had much more of the beach town vibe. We go home twice a year, typically house sitting and staying with family while there. So we do have about $2000 each a year in flight costs for those trips. Happy planning 😊😊
Happy St. Patricks Day! I can tell from the Vlog that food is dirt cheap. Sorry Brian that the smoky ice cream didnt measure up to your expectation. Cheers!
Happy St. Patrick's Day CM! No worries about the smoky ice cream, I went back the next day for one of those coconut cakes!! 😀
It was very crowded. Where are you going to spend the summer?
We will be home in June and then it is looking like Mexico!!
Do you guys know if they make any gluten free beers in Vietnam? Any tips for getting your laundry done in Hoi An? Hanoi?
Any suggestions for best restaurants for dinner in Hoi An?? We are heading there in about 5 days with kids.
Hi Cindy! Unfortunately we won't be of much help on these. We didn't look for gluten free beer so wouldn't really know if it was an option. As far as laundry, there seems to be laundry services quite accessible, we always try to rent a place with a wash machine, so we didn't need to use them. Hoi An was fantastic and had so many highly rated restaurants. We find searching on Google maps for restaurants is a great way to find ones around you that are rated well. Enjoy, Vietnam is a wonderful place to travel. Cheers
We are going to Vietnam in May-June. Is there any food or drink we shouldn’t eat in first few days when we arrive? I heard don’t drink tap water, ice or raw vegetables. Do you have any problem with food? Even I am Vietnamese but I left the country 30 years ago when I was teen and haven’t come back since. My husband is American and is bit worry about food poisoning or being sick because of bad food. My kids probably would love to try some ice cream or banana pancakes when we are there. I have been watching a lot of videos recently to prepare for the trip. One interesting thing I found there are a lot Vietnam dishes now we didn’t have or heard of 30 years ago.
We haven't had any problems with food in Vietnam or Thailand and we eat street food almost daily. We do not drink the water or eat raw vegetables but everything that we have experienced has been great. Most of what you order is cooked and prepared in front of you. The kids will love the ice cream and banana pancakes!! Thank you for watching and safe travels!!
Cheers!!!
Hi Carrie and Brian. I’m a lacto/ovo vegetarian but my husband isn’t. We will be in Vietnam very soon. Did you see many vegetarian savoury options both in street food and restaurants? (I know you both eat meat 😊) Pork and beef seem to predominate there, will I struggle, or will I be living on mostly fruit and desserts. (Sugar). Cheers. ❤
Hi! We did see vegetarian options and vegetarian specific restaurants. But being that neither of us follow a vegetarian diet we didn't really pay a lot of attention to be able to share how much would be available. I do know you can search for restaurants in your area in the maps app and you can specify vegetarian. Soon as I have our Airbnb address I always scope out everything around us ☺️.
@@BrianandCarrie Thank you, good to know. 😃
Food, beer, dessert, explore, repeat 🤘 What's the plan for this summer?
BTW, what's you location plans for this summer? Our original plan was to spend June-Sept in South East Asia, but getting lots of inputs that eastern Europe, Middle East would be a better option at that time of year because of it being wetter in late sumner, then come back around to SEA in early 24 after Australia NZ?!? Thoughts?
Hey guys! We would agree with that. The best time in SE Asia is Dec. through May. We are heading to Mexico and the Dominican Republic from July until late November before returning home for the holidays. Thank you for watching and safe travels!!
Cheers!!🍻
My husband and I are excited to begin long term traveling in a year or so, but we are wondering. How is the travel in Asian countries compared to European countries? I know that's a huge question..but very curious.
We haven't had any problems with local transportation and moving from country to country on Air Asia has been very easy as well. Ryan Air is less expensive than Air Asia but the cost isn't bad. The train system here would be equivalent to the Balkan countries. 🍻
The food in Hoi An is a little more expensive than normal food, but it's so good 😊😊😊😁
You may be right. We spent a month in Da Nang and had some fantastic dishes as well. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Cheers!!🍻
Did you have to get any vaccines before traveling to SE Asia? Is there any issue with the stomach eating and drinking there?
We did a video know before you go, covering both Vietnam and Thailand. In the we cover the vaccines we got, you may find that helpful. Cheers!!
@@BrianandCarrie thank you!
5 dollars for a craft beer . it is a little expensive
Fun question from one of your biggest fans: Thus far, if you could only choose one place, where would you choose to move to permanently? Just one, please.
Great question!! We are loving SE Asia's cost of living, the food, beaches, everything has been great. With that said, we are still drawn to the Algarve region of Portugal.
@@BrianandCarrie Awesome. We are visiting there in April to explore Portugal as a place to spend our winters.
I have to admit warm beer would destroy the experience for me , do you find in Vietnam there is a lot of warm beer . thanks for the content
We only found ice cold beer! We were in Hanoi, Da Nang and Hoi An so developed much more than some of the rural area were you may not get a cold one. Thank you for watching!
Cheers 🍻
@@BrianandCarrie Your welcome subscribed, going back to Thailand in June but thinking about visiting Vietnam
You won't regret it! We really enjoyed our time there. Safe travels.
You are both looking a little trimmer. Do you feel that ? Are you eating well on your travels ?
Hi, Margie. We are eating very well. I (Brian) needed to lose a few pounds! I have been working hard to get back to where I was back in 2021 when we started our travels, almost there!! 😀 Thank you for watching and commenting!!
Cheers!!🍻
Thanks Brian! Looking good. I can’t imagine you had any weight to lose!! Thanks for the videos. Love Saturday mornings ! :) safe travels.
