What My American Dad Really Thought About Vietnam

  • In this travel vlog, I interview my dad about his trip to Vietnam, and ask him what he really thought about visiting this country.
    Over the course of about two and a half weeks, we stayed in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) and Hanoi, and also visited Ninh Binh.
    I ask my dad about his favorite experiences here and his overall impressions. I also ask him about some things that he didn’t quite like about Vietnam as well. I then ask if it’s a country he would be willing to visit again, and perhaps a country he would consider living in.
    I also got him to give the trip and overall Dank Rank Review.
    Overall, I had an amazing time with my dad here. I think he was courageous and open to trying so many things while he was here. Living half way across the world, we don’t often get the opportunity to spend time together, so it was really a blessing to have him here. These are memories that I will cherish forever, and memories that I’m really glad I was able to record and also share with all of you.
    Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed this travel vlog.

    Next time, bring your dad to Da Nang it’s a great city not congested and clean . I’m sure you’ve been there, but I’ve been living there for five years.

    Your dad is in excellent shape for someone almost 60! Tell him to come back and do food tours in Hanoi, I think he'd really like 'em. Try a 2-3 different people/companies and see what they show you as far as food (you can tell them to show you the best/favorite foods, most popular foods, etc.). If he's adventurous, tell him to do the Ha Giang Loop and the multi-day caving in Phong Nha. Glad you guys were able to hang out as father and son.

I’m not trying to be mean or anything but a good friend of mine just got out of this horrendous relationship with this bar girl he met online in Thailand. Ended up being abused financially, physically and mentally. So I hope you stay safe man, Viet women can be lovely but not all of them are, please just be careful when they start to ask you for money. Just a heads up from a stranger, please forgive me if I offend you in anyway. Stay safe and enjoy Vietnam! :)
