Thanks for the great tour of Danang. I will never forget the night back in 1967 when I was fighting as a Marine in Quế Sơn Valley which is just south-west of Danang City. We had been fighting at least a full Division of North Vietnamese Troops for at least a month and we were taking a lot of casualties. I didn't expect to survive the war and one night after we dug in for the night, I looked to the North-East and saw over the top of a mountain that the sky was lit up brightly. I realized that it must be Danang since that was the only large city in the province. It was like gazing at Shangri-La, so near and yet so far. I was seized by an almost overpowering urge to just start running towards it. To save my life. I didn't run because I knew I would never be able to escape Vietnam until my one year was up. I knew of other Marines came back from R&R, landed at the Danang Airbase, and went AWOL in Danang City. They had no money, didn't speak Vietnamese, and had no passport so they couldn't escape the Country. The US Military Police would always catch them and bring them back to their unit. The Marine Corps hates deserters so they would punish the deserters with even more dangerous combat operations that often results in their deaths. Anyway, I'm so grateful to have survived and came home in one piece.
Now, Da Nang is very beautiful and can you try to come back 1 time again?
Thank you for your service.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Sir
It's hilarious that people actually believed your story, props for your story telling ability though 🤣
I just spent 5 weeks in Vietnam travelling the southern part of the country. When I hit Da Nang I spent 3 weeks there. Loved the beach strip, the people, the culture. I’ll be back!

Great video. I am from New York now here in Vietnam (Saigon) for 30 years and retired the past ten of those years. I love my life here. My first trip to Danang was in 1995 and you can’t imagine the change. Danang is beautiful and probably the best place to live but I am settled into my life in Saigon. If you might want to enjoy a really beautiful day drive try “the road less travelled” being route 14G to Prao which sits on the Ho Chi Minh Highway. Phenomenal beauty.
Lived in Philippines for 15 years, travelled to Thailand several times. Vietnam is next! Thanks for the great video. The format is wonderful, just walking around visiting with locals is an amazing format. Thanks again.
That would be cool if shared your perspective or impressions of these places you've lived and talked about the likes / dislikes of each.
Mark is killing it, such a relaxing vibe serving good food!
Mark is a top bloke and always a fun vibe at his place! 🌭🍻

I lived in Da Nang before covid and highly recommend it too.
I am back in Thailand for now but will return to Vietnam once the visa issues are sorted 👌
Thanks for all the new volgs in Da Nang. I visited Saigon last year and loved it and look forward to visiting Da Nang on my next trip to Vietnam.
All the Vietnamese I have met have been so friendly. Thanks for your video, I too have lived in Thailand and need a similar but different destination. I look forward to more vids from here mate.
Always brings a smile to my face watching your content with a little bit of jealousy, glad your back.
You're my hero man. You're living it up. Solo traveling, and having a good time. I can't wait to follow in your footsteps next year
Officially another destination to see and experience! Thanks for another great, entertaining, and informative video, Sir Esquire, and welcome back! 🤝👏🙏
Great to see you back looking fit healthy and happy! Will be looking to get out there at christmas, stay safe and enjoy life!
It is a pleasure to watch all your videos. This latest is first class like all the previous ones. It's great to watch you enjoying life wherever you go. As always, job well done!
I just stumbled on this video from outa nowhere. Well done mate, very good video and a very lovely place. I really want to go there now. I wish you all the best and safe travels.
Great video.Always look forward to your adventures
Love your enthusiasm for life Esquire, your inquisitiveness and friendly nature towards others makes great entertainment keep it up
Thank you, mate. Thank you so much for what you are doing for our country and Asia! We welcome you, guys!🇻🇳👋
Good to see you safe & well LJ. Da Nang is taking care of you. Good food, good people, good atmosphere. Look after yourself mate👍
One of the most enjoyable blog vids I've eve watched ,very well done .
Looks so fine there, cheers.
Welcome back to the real world Esquire. It's has been a while you disappear from this channel.
Awesome vlog, I like the way you meet and talk to people, and also how you describe briefly any spot/location like shops, street vendor, hotel etc.
It's very informative. Thanks a lot.
I wish you good luck in Da nang. And looking forward more vlog(s) from Vietnam.
Thank you for joining the journey my friend. glad u enjoyed it 🙂
@@EsquireUnlimiteddid you get lucky with the girls
@@EsquireUnlimitedare you going back to Thailand
Esquire doesn't get "lucky", he just pours out the charm, savvy😎, a wink of the eye, & he's IN like Flint!!! 👍😳🤠
Was looking forward to a dose of Esquire vlogging zen. Good to see you back and doing well mate.
Love your work mate. Your positivity shines through. Keep on showing everyone the world and all the great people that populate it :)
Dude, I got to tell you how much I enjoyed your video. First I've seen of yours and immediate like what you presented. I was thinking of retiring and moving to Asia and put Thailand on my short list and now you are making me think Vietnam needs a good look too. People seem super nice and beautiful and the prices will help that budget last. The hotel, massage, veggie stand and hot dog place would most certainly be on my places to go.
Ur interaction with the locals is fantastic mate, gr8 vid 👏
This is the best vlog you've ever made mate. Look really at home there relaxed and with good people . Love the life
Been a couple of years since watching your channel - great to see you are still loving asia and love the content.
Cheers from Brisbane
@tranduy2668 - well yes plenty of parks and green spaces. A lot of people shop Darra for Asian veggie market.
As far as being quiet- no , population grown and traffic is now really busy… creating lots of pollution and dust/dirt.
Enjoy!
Was in Da Nang 3 weeks ago and loved it. Could just spend my days by the sea watching the waves roll in. Temperature is also quite nice (not mega hot like Thailand at the moment). Great place; might make it my hot season go to if they come out with the rumored Vietnam 3 month evisa!
That was such a nice video, easy to watch. Informative, fun and just all around good job 👍👍👍 I'm slow traveling right now and Da Nang just got added to my list....wishing you continued success!
Glad to see you back. Hope to see more vlogs soon!
here here...................
Nice see him back....
Looked like he was Nervous....
Awesome video, LJ. Always a pleasure! Do you have any plans of going around to see the wildlife, waterfalls, and caves? There seem to be so many highly rated waterfalls around. The world's biggest cave isn't so far either, but that would be quite a more challenging trip. Anyway, I like your vibe, brother. Take care!
hey buddy, I have looked up those caves. I seen some doco about it, the locals recon there is aliens living in there and they seen spaceships flying out 👽 Could make for a fun vlog! 😅 dunno about waterfalls in DaNang?? but ill look into it. Thanks for the positive words mate ✌️
Good to see you back!
Awesome video. Great content. Glad to have u back.
I loved your Vlog cobber. Great to see you enjoying life.
Cheers 😊🇦🇺👍
Cheers cobb 👍🏻🦘
Hell Yeah man.
So glad you are posting again.
Well I hope you keep it up.
I enjoy living vicariously through your vlogs.
I was actually just thinking the other day that Esquire hasn't uploaded in quite some time and I was wondering what the word is and there he is, coming at ya like a bomb from Da Nang! haha. I'm currently in Thailand and one of the countries I want to go to next is Vietnam. I'll be sure to check out Da Nang at some point later this year. Thanks for the vid and I'm glad to see you're doing well! Cheers!
It’s crazy how cheap the food is and it looks like very high quality ingredients. Good to see you back
Good to have you back mate!
Awesome! Been way too long between videos, glad to have you back
Great to see you reemerge on the "tube" L.J.. Loved the blog and it's made me determined to get to Vietnam ASAP. I made it back to the Philippines yesterday and will stay for 6 months at least. Hope to see you over here before too long. Rock on!

This is your best video yet. Excellent work, well done mate.
Great to see you, and looking totally chilled 👍🏼
Thought it would be a great place to visit after experiencing Vietnam with a short trip to Saigon 2019.
Looking at that hotel online and the map of the area with the prices, its on my list to do now.
The beach which is my number one priority looks amazing too.
Thanks for sharing and no wonder we have not heard from you!!
Always a pleasure Jam3s, your a man living every Aussie man's dream for sure, cheers mate 😊
good to see you back enjoying yourself again
Great !! Ya back !! Bring us more
What a fantastic video capturing Da Nang life beautifully! More please! 👍🥳
Good to see a new video.
Yay!!! You are back.
I spent 4 months traveling SE Asia and after 2 and 1/2 months on the road in Vietnam, Da Nang was where I decided to rent an extended AirBnB chill out, and try to live like a local before I flew home. I know that after visiting all of the tourist spots Da Nang is sort of underwhelming. It's like the middle ground of what Vietnam has to offer. Pretty but not spectacular. Beaches but with lawn chairs and hotels instead of giant limestone formations like Ha Long Bay. Bustling asian city, but small with basic architecture in comparison to French influenced Hanoi. But if you're looking for someplace for an extended stay after having been everywhere else its sort of perfect. Its got a little bit of everything you'd want. Its big enough to have lots to offer, but small enough that you can get around easy. Its got international cuisine, chain businesses, and of course local offerings. The water is never more than a 15min drive. And theres places to explore if you head inland. And its got an international airport. After I flew home my friends stayed for a couple months. If you're on a short holiday, Da Nang is a city to stay in for a couple days while your on your way to Saigon or Hoi An. But when you've been staying in hostels in village after village, tourist spot after tourist spot, sometimes what you want is a more middle of the road, well equipped, easy to get around place to chill out and get comfortable. For that I love Da Nang. Had one of the best Christmases of my life there. Right before the Pandemic hit.
Great content again!!!
He’s baaaack…. Great video mate. Good to see you relaxing in a great spot. Keep them coming.
Thanks cobb 👍🏻
EVERYTHING LOOKS FRESH AND GOOD TO EAT, THANKS FOR SHARING THE INFORMATION ON WHERE TO GO AND SEE
ok, I'm sold. Been trying to decide where to start next year when I move to SEA.
90 day visa starts in a month or so that's a big plus.
That hotel looks really nice too. Great info.
Great to see you Back Esquie !
Glad your back,thanks for posting the price.
Never been more excited at a notification. Glad to see you back
Awesome video Esquire,, love the relaxing vibe ,, so many happy faces😃😃
Thanks for a great tour and chats with locals in Danang
Welcome back. I was wondering if you dropped off the face of the earth. :)
Great video. The lady, Jenny, at the end seemed embarrassed, but she did a good job advertising the menu of that place.
Cheers!
Good to see you back,LJ.
Nice to see you back mate we have missed you.
LJ glad to see you back, missed your vlogs, enjoyed today's vlog👍
Nice vid love the interaction with people who have.. ..I Liked Da nang will return soon..
Good to see ya back LJ, i was in Thailand feb/march got to say its got expensive there since my last visit 3 years ago, going to give Vietnam a go this October hearing its a fair bit cheaper than say Krabi in Thailand. Beaches look great to. Keep the good work up, never expected to see you stayed there so long mate.
Good to see you back and at peace with yourself
It s been long time, good to see you mate. looking forward to get the best advise about vietnam, you have become like a world adviser for traveling in asia...thanks.

Mate, you captured the essence of Danang with closing screen of the “banh bao” seller 😝 keep doing what your doing! Love it
haha I love that sound 😂 Cheers mate 👍🏻
What is Banh Bao??
@@gc4644 steamed bun
The Ban Bao sellers are why i left Da Nang, but hearing them here makes me miss Danang....confusing AF
Indeed! lol
Good to see ya back mate 👍 im moving to Hua Hin tomorrow from Pattaya for a long stay so I'll watch your vids on Hua Hin 👍👍👍

Glad to see you back buddy. Peace. 😊
