    Some of the highest highs and lowest lows in this video. Drove on some truly horrendous roads, crashed a Vietnamese wedding, nearly got human trafficked in a dank hotel room in Hanoi, and missed my flight to Japan. What the f-ck. This is one of my favorite videos I've ever made and I'm fortunate to have you guys join me for the adventure. Love you guys. See you soon

      How come? Sex trafficking is a real thing and it happens a lot, aswell as prostitution and exploitation, moreover in places like Vietnam or Thailand where the tourism sometimes involves such things.
      Don't get me wrong I loved the video, and I also think of it as a crazy experience, however, I think most people would believe everything that happened. Couldn't it be?

    A tip: don't walk into a random hotel lobby or spa looking building called a "nhà nghỉ", it's most likely a brothel. Instead, find a bigger more official looking building called a "khách sạn", which is usually an actual hotel. The men in the video were prostitutes, and it was an uncomfortable situation but it's not their fault that this guy walked into the wrong place.

It's raw and it's real. What an amazing adventure and journey. I applaud you for handling and managing everything so well, especially in stressful situations. Im glad to have clicked on this video.

We never got lucky enough to randomly crash a wedding, but I met some of the most welcoming and friendly people on this route. We had some random person paid for our lunch without us knowing when he left. We were so confused when we tried to pay and the owner wouldn't accept the money. Neither us nor the owner speak each other's language, but Google Translate came to the rescue. Incredibly kind people, and the scenery was beautiful.

    The human trafficking thing looked so scary, I’m glad you were able to get out of that situation.

    Seeing you dance at the wedding, made me tear up. They were so inviting, and accepting 😂

    Hey man, I rarely comment on youtube but I just stumbled across your channel and I must say your videos are one of the most entertaining videos out there. I haven't binged-watched anyone this much in a good while bro. It looks like you've been through a lot. Looking forward to the japan videos and the rest to come. You should do a trip around Europe, maybe balkans to see what our culture is like. Keep up the amazing videos bro!

    I have been fortunate to be able to travel to Vietnam twice and I have had a wonderful experience travelling and filming. Recently came across your channel and I am an instant fan of your videos. Binging! brb

    honestly since i came across your Colombia playlist Colombia, i was amazed by how you manage through all of it despite the cartagena event which at least ended well unlike with me in 2015 living in Bucaramanga, left with 6 stab wounds... so i felt for you the second i saw that one happening and im sorry it happened to you. its an interesting journey seeing one by one all of your well acclaimed adventures! wish you happiness! stay safe
