They might not be rich but they have pride. They would rather pick up recyclables to have a meal then beg. I was born in Vietnam and live in America for 40 years now. Im fluent in Vietnamese and English with no accent when I speak either language. You two are awesome. Have fun and enjoy the memories.

He was doing the floating market tour and a disabled/handicapped guy came up on a boat selling lottery tickets so he bought some and mentioned how even disabled/handicapped, the guy was earning his money (basically not out begging, something you see a lot in other countries).

One of the young guys in the touristy Cancun area basically befriended me to mooch off of me...I was too nice and naïve back then and should have seen it for what it was. LOL! One of the reasons Sonny chose Vietnam is he said the people are very hard working and he also notices the entrepreneurial spirit or innovativeness of the people. Chad Kubanoff and WillinVietnam also noticed and pointed out those traits recently.

    tôi là người Việt sống xa quê hương .nhìn các bạn cười và ôm nhau với cô gái bán bún cá làm tôi thấy ấm áp tình người với nhau. các bạn không chê quán nhỏ hay quán không nổi tiếng ( vì thật ra ở vietnam bây giờ rất nhiều quán lớn hơn kinh doanh bài bản và chuyên nghiệp hơn các quán siêu nhỏ trong video và tất nhiên ngon hơn và hợp vệ sinh hơn ) nhưng 2 bạn luôn khen ngợi làm tôi thấy cuộc sống tươi đẹp hơn. bạn gái bạn và cô gái bán bún cá có những nụ cười với nhau là những khoảnh khắc đẹp mặc dù rào cản ngôn ngữ .

    WOW your video popped up I thought it was an old video from Haiphong until I read the word Saigon, welcome back.
    This is what you find online "Vietnam is reportedly also the cradle of 272 dishes made from 43 different flowers"
    Years ago a Vietnamese gameshow asked which country has the most flower dishes in the world, everyone made the wrong guesses and shocked to find out it's their country Vietnam.
    The lady said "bông điên điển" ( điên điển flower) . Most of these flower dishes are regional dishes so not all Vietnamese know about them unless they're from that particular regions .
    There are several different regional dialect words you might want to know:
    - Northern Vietnam: pig or pork "Lợn" .......southern Vietnam: "heo"
    - Northern Vietnam: flower "hoa" ..........southern Vietnam: "bông"
    -Tra Tac is tea + kumquat
    - fish sauce with rice is not a dipping, it's meant to pour over the rice.

    Banh Mi Tho Nhi Ky is Turkish Doner Kebab . Bun Ca Châu Doc is Fish Noodle Soup , a speciality of Châu Doc ( a town in the Mekong Delta next to the Cambodian border ) . Ca Loc is snakehead fish . The sauce that you dip the fish in is not ginger sauce . It's actually made of tamarind ( Nuoc Me = Tamarind Water) . In the countryside areas and working-class districts the locals sometimes dry up the remnants of rice and corn after each meal and keep them to feed the pigs or chickens instead of throwing them away because they don't want to waste food . You misunderstood the bird vendor . She said 8000 VND ( 0.33 USD ) each not 85 000 (3.54 USD) . In many pagodas and temples in Vietnam and China , the worshippers buy those incense coils and hang them with their names and family members' ones and let them burn slowly wishing to receive the blessing and protection of Buddha and the Bodhisattvas (Buddhist deities such as the Goddess of Mercy) . It's like lighting a candle in the church for the Christians . We highly appreciate your respect for the local culture and religion unlike another British youtuber (Brad and Izzy) who went filming inside the famous Bai Dinh pagoda in Ninh Binh last month without taking off his cap and shoes . Shame on him ! Hope he won't do it again in Thailand where he is now . Sua Dâu Nanh ( the drink you didn't know what it is ) is actually Soy Milk . You should ask the Banh Mi vendor to cut it equally in half for you .
