  • After taking in the sounds and chaos of Hanoi we planned to visit and explore Da Nang after taking a sixteen hour sleeper bus. Our plans were never meant to happen as Leanne got very ill.
    We spent the two days in Da Nang letting Leanne recover before moving on to the Beautiful Hoi An.
    We spent four days in Hoi An exploring the surrounding areas of My Son and An Bang beach. We stuffed our faces with the best Banh Mi.
    whilst in Hoi An we stayed at the lovely Ancient River Villa you can find them on booking.com

    Originally from the Wirral, North West England we got married in 2012. After a few trips abroad we caught the #travel bug. In 2019 after 6 weeks in Japan we decided we were going to quit our jobs and take some time out to travel full time. After many delays due to the pandemic, in 2021 our dream finally came true and in November we set off on our journey.

    We preferred the Banh Mi Queen too, best Banh Mi we had in all of Vietnam! Thanks for showing us My Son sanctuary as we didn't have time to visit! God we miss Vietnamese coffee 🤤

    1:00 that is "Lương Khô" literal translation is just dried food. Often used as an emergency field ration.

      Thank you so much!!!
      We had an incling it might be used as a field ration.
      Leanne really loves them 😅

    Ref: At minuite 1:06 "Lương Khô" = Dried Food.
    Originally the term only cirulated within Military Supply as part of the army rations.
    It's later made available to market as a military surplus. Being a ration it's hi in carbs/energy source by weight. Main Ingredient is: Soybean. But commercial product may replace Soybean with Mung bean (for more fragrance) + some vanilla.

      Thank you so much for the translation😁
      We thought they may have been used as a ration. Leanne really liked them 😋

    🏯 This vlog has made me fall in love with the historical charm of Hoi An. What an amazing place! The way you showcased the history and culture of Hoi An, I felt like I was transported back in time. Like and support from Bangalore

      We are so happy you enjoyed the vlog 😊 Vietnam really is a beautiful country and we will definitely be returning again in the future, because we don't feel as though we have seen enough of the country in the short time we have been here 😁

    Great Vlog. Sorry Leanne was so ill on the bus. You look cool in your Gangsta shades Andrew. Looking forward to seeing the next Vlog about your cruise. I'm interested to find out what the coloured light things were that they were throwing around.

    • @LostKnox
      @LostKnox  Před rokem

      I wouldn't call them Gangsta shades 😎 😅😅
      Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video

    I got the giggles when you said couldn't get enough of the "luong kho", that's like visiting France and saying you couldn't get enough of their big Mac

    I read somewhere that taking probiotics whilst travelling south east Asia helps prepare your stomach for all the different foods

    • @LostKnox
      @LostKnox  Před rokem +1

      Good tip.
      Leanne has never gotten sick in South east Asia before.
      Fingers crossed she doesn't again 😊

  • @TheRebornofSocialVietSub

    hope you stay here long enough to explore more place ;).

    • @LostKnox
      @LostKnox  Před rokem +3

      We have left Vietnam for now as our visa expired. But we will definitely come back to explore more 😁
      We still have another vietnam video coming 🇻🇳

    As for the headroom, choose the first floor so you can get the headroom which is super essential for a long trip
    As for future experience, ask the hotel clerks to get tips and suggestions. When Vietnamese return, they hire their van to travel from one city to another.
    As for the bus not being on time, this is usually the case throughout SEA. Vietnamese coffee is more bitter , and strong. They are the second coffee exporter after Brazil.

    • @LostKnox
      @LostKnox  Před rokem

      Love the advice about asking hotels for help.
      Also we absolutely LOVED vietnamese coffee!!!❤️

    As with this blog and most others, Nothing of value can be discovered by staying in a place for a few days .. more like self gratification or Hey ..Look mom I am in Vietnam. Those of us that live in Vietnam, know better.

    • @LostKnox
      @LostKnox  Před 11 měsíci

      Unfortunately we are limited with how much time we can spend in each place. Although we didn't get to see all of Hoi An we did have an amazing time here 😊

    Everyone goes to the same places, eats the same food and everyone thinks he has discovered hot water.
