    The reason for your success is very clear, Justin. It is Q. The iron will of the Vietnamese includes their incredibly hard working and supporting women. When I was in Vietnam the first time, I recognised why these people are unbeatable. Thank your lucky stars Q is not just your wife, but business partner.

    I lived in V/N for a year and taught English in HCMC. The people are lovely, the girls are gorgeous and some many happy memories. If living in Perth wasn't so fantastic, it would be nice to go back. Thanks for sharing some of your personal stuff Justin. Some guys I've been following their YT for years, but they always seem to keep their private life hidden. Kudos.

    I love the episodes with you and your wife. Q = awesome, and seeing Hanoi is very cool. I love the contrast of the modern apartment building with the rooster chasing the chicken across the road(now we know why! ). Of course your photography is on point as always. I like how you can take a rather bland subject, and create interest in a photo by placing an out of focus element in the fore ground. I'm going to have to file that one away for days when there just isn't anything jumping out to my eye. Thanks for sharing all of this with us. It truly is a treat, and thank Q for being such a good sport!

      Thanks Scott, this city is 100% built for 2 wheels but unfortunately people now all want a car and the infrastructure isn't there yet but it's changing. The bike is a Royal Enfield Classic 500 that my wife bought me for my birthday, I'm a lucky one.
