  • In this travel vlog, I take a thousand meter (aka 1 km) journey walking around my new neighborhood in Phu Nhuan District, Saigon, Vietnam.
    This district has a much more local Vietnamese vibe to it than my previous District 1 neighborhood, and I’m excited to share adventurous vlogs throughout this neighborhood during my stay here.
    This purpose of this journey, walk, and vlog, was to get a lay of the land and to get a better sense of what this Thich Quang Duc Street looked like and had to offer. It seems like there are tons of alleys ripe for exploration, friendly Vietnamese locals, and lots of different restaurants to try out some authentic Vietnamese food. I’m very excited about this new environment and opportunity for exploration.
    I’ll be here for a few days before I travel to a coastal province for Tet Holiday. After that, I will return here for a period of time. I will make vlogs about all of these experiences.
    Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed this travel vlog.

    Nice new neighborhood for you. I like the less traffic vibe there. The nail and shower thing. Mai my Vietnamese wife. Loves to go and have her hair washed. Especially after a long day of work. Or a day out. Mai wife and I. And her family went to Cu Chi District, Ho Chi Minh City yesterday. To visit her father’s grave. By the time we got back home in district 1. She was ready to have her hair washed. So we stopped by a local place like that.

      @@BigTimeBentley It really makes the time on the treadmill go by faster. I often watch the walking videos on YT of the various cities in Japan. So much fun walking Japan. If you can make your walking videos of Vietnam about an hour long in 4K quality, they will be evergreen videos that will gets viewers forever for you. Thanks again, and keep up the great contents.

    Regarding the shampoos at the nail salons, I’ve noticed some of the nail salons have a huge menu which often includes massage, facials, hair treatments, etc. My wife and her sister get their hair shampooed often which usually includes a head and neck massage. Seems pretty nice if you want pampering. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    The pagoda from your view in the previous video is different one from that temple, the pagoda near your place can be seen at 29:04. The temple earlier in the video is a Caodist temple, a local religion in Southern Vietnam

    "Say No to plastic waste/ trash" is what the sign says.
    The religious institute is for Cao Dai religion, a kind of Taoism. It's similar to Bahai'i religion except that Bahai'i is more toward Christianity whereas Cao Dai is closer to Buddhism. You can search more of that on the internet.

    I’m Vietnamese but don’t eat it everyday, with you living there what American dishes do you crave from time to time? And do you cook mostly Vietnamese or American foods? 🤔

    • @BigTimeBentley
      @BigTimeBentley  Před 6 měsíci

      I used to cook more often but I rarely cook now. In terms of dishes I miss the most I’d say really good Southern California style Mexican food would be at the top of the list…after that it would be maybe things like stuffing/mashed potatoes/gravy because eating that always reminds me of holidays. And then also high quality ice cream is something I miss. Great question!
