It's certainly a different way of living, I hope you're doing well, and don't get caught up in the bribery/corruption system. Phó is eaten here, some of it is delicious, some just average.
I was in Da Lat in 1972 with the 177th Ordnance Detachment of the US Army. Da Lat is in the Central Highlands, and it has much cooler weather. Da Lat is like Aspen, Colorado in the US. They had big lumber mills there, even grow Yellowpine trees. Go see Tiger Falls, a local water fall. I loved Da Lat, similar to the mountains Idaho. They probably have many million dollar homes there, is it quite expensive to live there, compared to other areas. The terraced Fruit Tree farms are also, beautiful.
can you explain better this lifestyle?? like what would mean to live for 300 dollars? (I've been in Bali and Myanmar, and i know is possible but) thankyou
Nikki, I have some good news for you. Vietnam’s National Assembly just passed a new law to update a few things related to visas and immigration matters. 1) your visa free entry into Vietnam (with your Russian passport) will be 45 days, tripled from the current 15 days. 2) e-visa will be multi-entry 90 days, instead of single entry 30 days as it is now. This law goes into effect on August 15, 2023 and it will make life so much easier for you and anyone wants to come to Vietnam.
I am blown away by the honesty with which you reveal the details of your life, both the good and the bad. This is what makes your channel so watchable over time. I appreciate hearing about the cost of things, and I really love the "food porn" !
Đà Lạt is amazing :)) hope you’re enjoying your stay. As a Vietnamese student who is living abroad for study, all i can say is homesick hits me hard haha
The weird leaf you had in your spring rolls is called perilla, and it is a cousin of the Japanese Shiso leaf. It definitely has a distinctive taste, and it features prominently in Korean cuisine. now I have learned it is part of Vietnamese cuisine. It’s hard for us to source this in America but I am sure that some shops carry it. Good for you for trying new things!
This perilla and shies leaves look very similar. I tried perilla at a Korean BBQ for the first time and just had a a small bite before I let my friends finish the rest of perilla. Now I like it :)
I grow "Shiso" in the garden here in Germany. Just mailorder some seeds online from Japan. I have 3 versions of Shiso: Green ones, red ones and green-purple ones. Slightly different tase. Once you started with growing them you always will have them. They are coming by themselves each year.
Love, love, love when you do these kind of videos. Opens up a new perspective to the way others live and the cultural differences also learning about food etc. Great job
Nikki I really enjpyed your video on Vietnm. I have always wanted to travel the world to include Vietnam. I was actually in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War but had duty assignments in Korea and Germany. I had a praying mother and I fully believe her prayers kept me from going to war. I have also watched your videos in Russia and have come to the conclusion that you are one of the most positive and happy persons I have ever viewed. You always have a smile on your face and you really have the gift of gab (a compliment from me)! Please continue your videos!! A fan from lower Alabama U.S.A.
It is not difficult to watch any of your videos. Just love your honesty and enthusiasm for other cultures! I wish the entire world were like you in that respect. Thank you for making these videos. I feel they are very important to remind us that humanity is alive and well in the world. Best wishes for your future travels! Love from Minnesota, USA.
well no? Da Lat is literally one of the most well known tourist cities in Vietnam, maybe behind Nha Trang, Ha Long, Hoi An, but that's it. It's totally in top 5 tourist spot at least. It's very popular spot for Vietnamese to travel there in summer to escape the summer heat due to the mountainous climate. I wouldn't say it is underrated. You may think it's underrated because it's not very populated, and it's exactly because it's a tourist spot, not a city to find jobs, unless you are in tourism or agriculture (Dalat plants, vegetables and flowers are very popular in Vietnam)
I live in HCMC and have thought about Da Lat for the weather but one downside is the amount of tourists it draws on the weekends or national holidays. Glad to see you are doing well and I hope you have a lovely time in Vn.
Yes, every weekend so many tourists come here (but they are also the reason that Dalat has lots of great daily life spots that I enjoy during the weekdays)
Hi Niki, Thanks for this video about daily life in Vietnam. The small things are very interesting-food, shelter, money etc. I am always curious how different cultures can have different ways of handling daily life. Keep traveling!
I found your channel right at the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. I am so happy you are doing what you love and found a country you enjoy living. I grew up in Vietnam and seeing your video makes me want to move back home. (I am from the US). Best wishes
Niki, I am so happy for you. I can always get an honest, accurate assessment of a subject from you. It would be nice if you could live in America for a while. There are places with good people and affordable living, but it does take planning. Well, wherever you go, I know I can find you. Safe travels.
You should definitely check out Taiwan if it's possible for you. I lived there for nearly two years as an American and I quite enjoyed it. It is a super free and democratic place full of beautiful nature and lots of historical sites.
Isn't it about to become ground zero though for WWIII?? 👀 I'd be way too nervous living there. Wouldn't want to have a situation similar to those Indian students in Ukraine who had difficulty getting out during the invasion.
You should write a book about your travels and include photos from each destination. Including the food from different locations/countries. I think you could do really well. I would buy a copy of your book.🙂🤗✌
This was so interesting! It's fascinating to me to see how other cultures live. Their food is quite healthy. Thank you for giving us a personal view of your life there.
Excellent vlog. My former NHS colleague went on a guided tour of Vietnam in 1980 and fell in love with the country. He loved the people, who made him feel very welcome, which surprised me as the Vietnam war had only ended 5 years earlier 🇻🇳🙏🕊️
Great video today, sorry I miss the live, but still watch you later. I think you are living the life you are happy with, and to me is the most positive thing you can do for your happiness. Lots of us are upset with what happening with the Russian country, but we all can't do much help. Just glad you look happy and you are happy with your new spot. Live healthy and safe
Please come to Malaysia bro. It's cheap and you'll love it! Will earn yourself many new fans too! Singapore is expensive but worth a visit too. A few days is good enough.
I enjoy seeing the local culture from countries that unfortunately I will never get to see. Traveling and recording/editing/uploading videos is work and I appreciate what you do.
Enjoy your time in Vietnam, Niki! I've always been interested in exploring Asia and it's great to see your down to earth insight! Da Lat looks awesome!
Very interested in your content. Good Job. I love to see the normal everyday life of the people of the countries you visit. And the things you get up too. The cost of things and the lifestyles.

Niki when you go to the Philippines, never miss seeing your countryman the Baylosis Squad. She's also a vlogger. The have good life her with her husband with businesses
Thanks for the great video! By the way, that's not background noise, it's 'atmosphere', 'immersive experience'... I like it. And your audio is super-clear.
John Saboe just said in a YT short, that VN will extend the 30-day visa to 90-day. The 15-day visa exemption will become 45 days exemption. Should take effect on 15. August according to him.
I was amazed by the scooter/motorcycle traffic in Vietnam-it was difficult enough to cross the street as a pedestrian, couldn’t imagine trying to negotiate it on a scooter! Loved the video. There are many Vietnamese expats where I live and the restaurants they have opened are wonderful. Enjoy seeing how you are fairing.
Very happy that you are happy. You deserve it, especially for what is happening back home and in Ukraine. Not any easy situation for sure, but thankfully you are a seasoned traveler and love it, so hopefully that makes it a bit easier. :) Enjoy beautiful Vietnam.
I have been your subscriber for awhile now. You are really an honest RUclipsr who is always describing your situations openly including your position on the Russia's invasion to Ukraine. You made uncomfortable choice to get away from your own country. It takes lot of sacrifices. I salute you for that. Wishing you nothing less than continuous success and happiness in wherever country you are in. Please continue making those interesting videos. Thank you.
Very interesting video. Love learning about new cultures and how to make a living on you tube. You have a great personality. It doesn’t help Ukraine in any way whatsoever if you are sad.❤
Niki I enjoyed hearing all about your stay. You seem to adjust quite nicely to new surroundings. The food looked really good and very affordable. Love where your staying. Seems very relaxing and peaceful. Happy to see your doing well and look forward to your next destination! Thank you for sharing this and as always....Best wishes, be safe and Many Blessings. 🙏❤❤😊
Hello Dear @NikiProshin! I hope you are doing well! Seems like you visiting "Nam" is a good idea while things are heating up in UA. News tonight, 9am their time, anti-air missiles blew up part of a bridge believed to be the Kerch Bridge. Please stay safe my friend and may God Bless and keep you safe, Blessed and not stressed!!!🙏💓🙌✝Love from US! 🫂
Another enjoyable video. Show us around the city and go to some shops such a grocery, bakery, electronics place, street vendors and so on. Chat with some locals for us. Thank you!
Wow, you look much happier now, Nikki. The puppy may have something to do with it? Dalat looks like a lovely place - you chose well. I like the new relaxed look. Congrats. Enjoy your new surroundings.
I hope to go to Thailand and Vietnam sometime in the next year or so. Maybe I can have a coffee with you. I've been a fan since before you left Russia.
Watching this video. I'm glad your enjoying your life and travels. There's alway various people that question others lifestyle. I wish you happiness throughout your journey in life.
I'm an American living in Ho Chi Minh City. I actually moved here because my wife is VNese, but I do think it's a pretty attractive place to live for several reasons. Adapting to the climate is one big issue for a lot of foreigners here.
Lots of Vietnamese living in Houston, Texas, supposedly because the climate is similar… at least for much of the year. Houston can get below freezing for a few days a year (and if the cold lasts, everything breaks!). So Vietnam probably would not be that hard to adjust to. :-) Vietnamese is one of the 5 languages you can vote in, in Houston. Along with Hmong, another language from Vietnam.
I wouldn't worry about people who think travelling is wrong during the Ukraine/Russian situation. I'm pretty sure there are million of people around the world travelling right now. If people stopped travelling, the workers in tourism would have difficulty surviving. Niki, you do a terrific job sharing your travelling experience. Your videos aspires me to travel the world one day. Keep it up!👍
Don't bother about the hate comments, people are either: 1) offended on behalf of the whole human race... 2) people we are suffering in Ukraine and they feel the need to vent at someone or something (understandable, even if not the right thing to do), 3) just dumbass*es. Either way, keep being you and keep us informed. Vietnam and its people are great. Love everything about it.
Wow, Vietnam looks so different to when I was there in 1999, but I'm sure the people are still as nice and welcoming as ever. Great place to stay a while. Personally I think you've made a great choice to stay away from the coast.
Hey Niki, I commented earlier about the weather. I am in Phoenix, Arizona, USA and we are having a major heatwave. It will probably get up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit by the middle of the week. Just awful. Very dry heat. Could you maybe discuss the weather there with the humidity factor and how you handle it. I hope you have good air conditioning in your home there. The news states temperatures have increased globally everywhere this week. Thank you.
Dalat is humid but most houses here don't have air conditioning since it's not hot here. It's common to use dehumidifiers here and I have one. It's also common here to use heaters during the winter because it gets quite chilly at night
Interesting video, Niki. Your lunch looked delicious so you will be eating healthy in Asian countries. You don’t have to give personal details on your RUclips income. RUclips subscribers don’t need to know your personal info but just the content this was intended for. Safe travels and look forward to seeing more of Vietnam. Stay safe. ❤️🇨🇦🙏
If you can travel to Phillpines it would be a better option when it comes to visa. You can stay there for three yars just extending your visa without leaving the coutry, and if you like Dalat, maybe Baguio City is a good alternative for you :)
I've been a silent viewer, liking content on occasion. However, your honesty, transparency, and good nature has earned a subscriber. Best of luck and looking forward to more personal adventures and insight into Russia/Ukraine conflict.
Vietnamese people and food are reasons enough. I live near a large Vietnamese community, though I haven’t visited lately a few restaurants and stores are in my neighborhood.
This is an amazing video. You are very precise at pointing out the positive e negative points. I've been to Vietnam twice and share the same opinion you have. BTW, I am a Brazilian follower and think you should consider visiting Brazil. We have a special visa for RUclipsrs.
Brazil is like a different world for me. Someday I'll visit there. I've never heard about a special visa for youtubers but I think Russians have 90 days visa-free for Brazil
Love this video. I love hearing about the places you are going to because I’ve never been anywhere near there. It’s also interesting to hear about how you figure out how to live in a place, not just as a tourist. Good luck!
vietnam is a great country... friendly people, good food, low budget, high quality. you are absolutely right though there certainly are lots of little annoyances
I’m not sure I could feel secure without a dependable and regular income. But very happy you’re doing quite well from your YT income. Love your videos. Really enjoy the information and tips. Vietnam looks great especially the food! Stay well Nikki.
this is such a lovely change of pace, i like the tranquility of this, its kinda nostalgic, i hope u enjoy your stay in vietnam while u there. Its nice seen other places once in awhile.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, friend. My wife and I also just moved to Vietnam. We are Vietnamese American and we have an extra layer of challenge because our parents were refugees leaving the country and still have a strong hatred of the government. We love Vietnam and we made the decision to live here for this chapter of our lives because it makes sense for us, but our parents are not happy and every day they send us anti-Vietnam propaganda and project a lot of their fears. Anyways, it's just what it is. We're adults so we have to just reassure them we're still alive. Anyways, thank you for your insights
Tôi là người Việt Nam ở trong nước … không biết sao đọc cmt của bạn làm tôi xúc động … thế hệ trước đã trải qua nhiều đau khổ khó khăn … chào mừng bạn trở về quê hương …
Hey Niki. I really like the content on your channel. I find your travels interesting despite the situation in Europe. Really hope for the best for your situation. удачи

If you wanted to tray it is possible to buy in Korean markets is USA!!!❤
I think you can replace perilla by other leaf in your local.
Vietnamese/asian markets often have it. I know the H Mart near my house always does.
I grow "Shiso" in the garden here in Germany. Just mailorder some seeds online from Japan.

Dalat is perfect, not too hot or cold. Not too busy and surrounded by fresh mountain forest!
Wow, Vietnam looks so different to when I was there in 1999, but I'm sure the people are still as nice and welcoming as ever. Great place to stay a while. Personally I think you've made a great choice to stay away from the coast.
Hey Niki, I commented earlier about the weather. I am in Phoenix, Arizona, USA and we are having a major heatwave. It will probably get up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit by the middle of the week. Just awful. Very dry heat. Could you maybe discuss the weather there with the humidity factor and how you handle it. I hope you have good air conditioning in your home there. The news states temperatures have increased globally everywhere this week. Thank you.
Dalat is humid but most houses here don't have air conditioning since it's not hot here. It's common to use dehumidifiers here and I have one. It's also common here to use heaters during the winter because it gets quite chilly at night
Interesting video, Niki. Your lunch looked delicious so you will be eating healthy in Asian countries. You don’t have to give personal details on your RUclips income. RUclips subscribers don’t need to know your personal info but just the content this was intended for. Safe travels and look forward to seeing more of Vietnam. Stay safe. ❤️🇨🇦🙏
If you can travel to Phillpines it would be a better option when it comes to visa. You can stay there for three yars just extending your visa without leaving the coutry, and if you like Dalat, maybe Baguio City is a good alternative for you :)
Saved that Baguio City for my future visit :)
@@NikiProshin Do not miss out on Cebu, an historical city with plenty of culture.
Vietnam is such an interesting country. I'm going to explore Southeast Asia when I retire.
I've been a silent viewer, liking content on occasion. However, your honesty, transparency, and good nature has earned a subscriber. Best of luck and looking forward to more personal adventures and insight into Russia/Ukraine conflict.
Thank you and welcome to our tiny community!
just wanted to say I truly enjoy your videos
Vietnamese people and food are reasons enough. I live near a large Vietnamese community, though I haven’t visited lately a few restaurants and stores are in my neighborhood.
Enjoy Philippines Niki…last time I visited home was 2016. Currently living here in California since mid 70’s.
I really enjoyed this video Thank you. I hope you do not have difficulties renewing your passport
So glad to hear that you are growing your channel as well as personal growth. Keep on growing….
So very happy to see you again!❤️🙏🌹
This is an amazing video. You are very precise at pointing out the positive e negative points. I've been to Vietnam twice and share the same opinion you have. BTW, I am a Brazilian follower and think you should consider visiting Brazil. We have a special visa for RUclipsrs.
Brazil is like a different world for me. Someday I'll visit there. I've never heard about a special visa for youtubers but I think Russians have 90 days visa-free for Brazil
@@NikiProshin The special visa grants you the possibility to stay here for a year.
@@NikiProshinIf you like nature, Brazil is the place.
You are smart and kind. I wish people like you could make a positive change in Russia.
You should visit Russia. It's full of smart and kind people. Maybe it will make a positive change in you.
Love this video. I love hearing about the places you are going to because I’ve never been anywhere near there. It’s also interesting to hear about how you figure out how to live in a place, not just as a tourist. Good luck!
vietnam is a great country... friendly people, good food, low budget, high quality. you are absolutely right though there certainly are lots of little annoyances
I hope you will visit Cebu Philippines soon!
ty for sharing some of how you support yourself as a youtuber. It's interesting to learn a little of how it does, and doesn't work.
I’m not sure I could feel secure without a dependable and regular income. But very happy you’re doing quite well from your YT income.
Love your videos. Really enjoy the information and tips. Vietnam looks great especially the food!
Stay well Nikki.
One of your best videos. Greetings from the Bahamas!
Loved your video - so very interesting!! Thank you!
I really like your video about Viet Nam. Makes me want to take a trip there. I wish you all the best. Take care.
this is such a lovely change of pace, i like the tranquility of this, its kinda nostalgic, i hope u enjoy your stay in vietnam while u there. Its nice seen other places once in awhile.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, friend. My wife and I also just moved to Vietnam. We are Vietnamese American and we have an extra layer of challenge because our parents were refugees leaving the country and still have a strong hatred of the government. We love Vietnam and we made the decision to live here for this chapter of our lives because it makes sense for us, but our parents are not happy and every day they send us anti-Vietnam propaganda and project a lot of their fears. Anyways, it's just what it is. We're adults so we have to just reassure them we're still alive. Anyways, thank you for your insights
Hope you're enjoying your life in Vietnam no matter what challenges you're facing!
Tôi là người Việt Nam ở trong nước … không biết sao đọc cmt của bạn làm tôi xúc động … thế hệ trước đã trải qua nhiều đau khổ khó khăn … chào mừng bạn trở về quê hương …
Always interesting, keep it up Niki. Come visit Cape Town after your Vietnam stay.
how content creators earn their money and your insider's knowledge of this subject would make for a fascinating video
Thanks niki for showing how to make Russian salad. It’s so good.
Hey Niki. I really like the content on your channel. I find your travels interesting despite the situation in Europe. Really hope for the best for your situation. удачи
I've been to DaLat... Lovely city, great climate and yes fascinating history.
You are a good guide for the people that live in South East Asia.
Niki,you're enjoying life and that's good!
Good show Niki, enjoyed it from Florida, USA.
