"taking the picture of my beautiful son benjamin" - nah how cute is that man
sobbed internally for a moment when i heard that
literally 😭 tears flew to my eyes
I was going to comment about the same thing! Lovely. It makes me miss my dad so much.
Bro that literally made my eyes tear as I smiled his dad is such a gift 🙏🏾❤️
Right! He is adorable 🥰
I say it every time and I'll say it again - I love your dad so much
Yes he is growing on me to, cool guy 😎
Yeah, he is such a great example of what healthy (non-toxic) masculinity looks like!
The voiceover with your dad is perfection. Pure perfection; it even brought a tear to my eyes.
same, it was so beautiful over the sound of the paddle hitting the water - felt like an end to a heartwarming film
i teared up when your dad said your mom’s food was not only better, but she gives more. just something about it is so reminiscent of homemade meals, and the gesture of love given through food 🥹
i wonder where his mom is???
Papa Benji should be protected at all cost. 100/10 wholesome ❤️❤️❤️
Benji being called Benjamin was the craziest part of this video lolol. This was sooo cute though!!
My family and a few of my close friends call me Benjamin!!
@@benjiplant Brother love from bangladesh ❤️🇧🇩
Can you teach me that how to take care of Bombay chilli
,Pls. That's my new tree😅
Seeing a Viet dad actually love and care and actually express it warms my heart, I’m glad you have that
I hate to say it but I've never seen Vietnam like this. Similar to places like Mexico it's always portrayed in a certain way that never feels like what the country and people truly are. Seeing your family's beautiful home and the gardens and cafes you visited felt like a whole new world I've never seen. It's so beautiful and calming. You really captured a special feeling in this video and your Instagram posts. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
So how was the country portrayed to you?
I've been to Vietnam last winter and it is truly beautfiful. I don't think it was mis protrayed! It was a lovely video and reminded me of the great experience.
Im VIETNAMESE, I don’t know what your GORVEMENT & MEDIA PORTRAIT us look like??
All I can say is VIETNAM NOWADAYS IS DAMM WHOLE DIFFERENT THAN WHAT HAPPEND IN 70-80-90s-00s.
Life here is so much better & easier than before. Life is full of colorful, families values, cultures & enjoy.
VIETNAM - Southeast Asia, still poor & developing if compare to others East Asia but nothing chaotic & dangerous as ppl imagine!! Its even safer in many Us/Uk cities - where is full of druggies high on drugs all day & thugs running over streets, parks doing all shitty stuff.
And I can guarantee you, it’s more safer than Mexico. Not myself say this, alots of foreign who ever been working & travel in Vietnam or around Asia continental admit this.
Vietnam & some Southeast Asia country still have alots of problems as crazy traffic & corruption, healthcar, etc.. it need change & fix in future for better systems. But it step by step changing, just need times.
In recent years, the wave of foreign (us/western & South America) after travel or work here start chose their life here in Vietnam, Taiwan, China, Malay, Thailand,.. it’s not huge but it’s small amounts percentage. Its show something changing, something never happens before.
Alots of US/Western (non-Asian) was shocking after they’re landing here. Their information & knowledge is UPSIDE DOWN than what their though.
I have nothing against us/West or mexico, I write long comments just show you facts & others views.
BTW, WESTERN MEDIA & GORVEMENT always drawing us Asian is weirdo & different types.
Western media, reporters & movies painting us with their bias views. Though media, they’re teach ppl there is hateful racist towards to Asian ppl (including born AmericanAsian, AussieAsian,etc.. who been born & raise whole life in West by generations) though media, reports & movies - they tech younhful generation ignorant & racist towards to Asian. This is so sad & bad.
Asian is beautiful & unique just in their way. Asian ppl is Smart, friendly, hard-working, families values, easy to going, well-blending with others race & cultures.
Look at how many youngster West nowadays is fails & falling unbelievable becomes ignorant & violent, bloody racist ppl for no damm reason is so disgusting. If West don’t fix this problems & accept this is real deal problem then in 2-3 decades later they’re gonna behind by alots of East Asian & some Southeast Asia countries as well.
Being able to go with your dad to his homeland must mean so much!! I could tell how much your dad must love Vietnam and the people there!
Your Dad seems like a really nice guy. Your lucky to have the family that you do.
Hello 😊
I am French, and my mother is from Vietnam.
I have never traveled to Vietnam, but I love its culture, its traditions, the beauty of the landscape and the food.🥰
who else loved the dad's voiceover? it was so cute and lovely😍
I've never considered Vietnam as a place I might want to travel, but this really changed my mind! Wow it's so beautiful 😍 I will go to Vietnam one day!
Việt Nam rất nhiều cảnh đẹp . Nơi đây rất an toàn , người dân thân thiện . Mong 1 ngày nào đó có thể chào đón bạn đến đất nước chúng tôi
Many people don't know how spectacular the landscape is...check out videos from those whom did the Ha Giang Loop, Ninh Binh (he didn't really do it justice on this video), Ha Long Bay, etc. It also has the most amazing caves in Phong Nha where you can do a day trip or multi-day caving expeditions that are awesome....or just go canyoning in Da Lat, an awesome city with tons to see and do.
your dad is so pure!!! we must protect him at all costs😭🫶🏼
What do you mean by " protect him" ?
I was in Hanoi in December last year and was really taken aback by the architecture and the amount of greenery there. I think the plants especially those that climb on the side of the buildings really adds a lot of charm to the place! Definitely something you wouldnt see in Singapore where im from (even though we call ourselves the garden city lol) looking forward to the other videos!!
Singapore is new so it doesn't look as charming. I think the plants growing on the old buildings is what gives it charm and character and why so many love the Old Quarter in Hanoi.
why am i crying at your dad's little commentary at the end 😭 healing my immigrant father issues fr LOL
This reminds me of my trip to Thailand last summer and it brought tears to my eyes. I really want to visit Vietnam - mainly because Vietnamese is my favourite cuisine and could not live without it.
Thank you for this video Benji ❤️
Go to Vietnam and do food tours in every city. You'll have a great culinary experience.
This was such a heart warming video, I cant wait for the next Vietnam vlogs. Northern Vietnam is so incredibly beautiful!!
The landscape in northern Vietnam is incomparable. From Ha Long Bay to the Ha Giang Loop to Sa Pa to Ninh Binh...out of this world beautiful.
your dad is so sweet. love the impromptu live performance lol
"taking a picture of my beautiful son, benjamin " 🥺
It's SO SWEET to see how close your mum and dad are, even when they're apart
Bengi thank you for giving me a new hobby. Ian a 71 y/o retired pastor . Finding new things to do to fill my life was difficult but by chance I came across your videos and I am very happy with my new hobby. Thanks to you. And I have learned so much from you, I now have 38 plants. Again thank you for inspiring . And I will continue to follow you.❤
FYI, about the milk fruit (vú sữa - the literal translation is breast milk lmao :v), the best way to eat it would be slicing it in half and eat the flesh inside with a spoon. We don't eat the outside as it is tangy and tough :))
What a wonderful start to a great trip. Have a safe and wonderful time
I love this video so much. Thank you for bringing us along on your special adventure!
