Just another sad example of how sideways things have gone in the US. The new American Dream? To leave the country.

Good guy; smart guy. I might add that In my four years plus in Vietnam about a hundred women proposed to me. I sometimes asked, “How can you go into marriage on the basis of so little acquaintance?” They said, “You won’t hit me. You won’t cheat on me, at least not much. And you’ll bring financial security. And we’ll fall in love as we go.” They are a practical people.

I had a similar hospital experience here in Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand. I went to the private hospital at 9am with no appointment. Saw a neurosurgeon, got an MRI, and a consultation of the results and was out in time for lunch. The cost without insurance was about $250. I do have catastrophic health insurance.

I’ve noticed everyone loves where they are living the most. I’ve heard Vietnam is gorgeous. Along with Bali and the Philippines, Thailand and my sons visited Taiwan and loved it there!! Traveling is the best!!

Another great interview with loads of relevant information for travelers to Vietnam! Thanks Dan & Mark.

Vietnam has always been a favorite of mine, and had friends living on annual business visas for years, until the government cracked down on it just before covid. If you are married to a citizen, no problem, but otherwise you had to do a monthly border bounce. Last July, they went to a 90-day visa, but you don’t have the security of them letting you back in. At least in Thailand, where I am now, you have the advantage of the annual visa, and even options for multi year stays.

Great interview! He verbalized all my impressions from 2 trips to Hoi An. I love Vietnam!

great video, very genuine and informative. 13 years ago I was in the hospital in downtown Chicago, great teaching hospital. I was admitted because they suspected I might have appendicitis. 6 days later in a private room on a cancer floor after and CAT scan where they thought I might have colon cancer, with no food or water for 6 days just intravenous liquids, then on day 6 a colonoscopy and it turned out I just had an infection that was treated with anti-biotics. The total bill was over $ 60,000.00 bucks. I was on the hook for $ 3,500.00 of that. The US healthcare system is broken. Two weeks later I met with the surgeon and he still wanted to operate on me, yep he was the hammer and I was the nail, My Internist, a remarkable woman I had seen for decades told me do not have surgery, you don't need to.

Love the on the ground interview! Freedom seems to be the key for opportunity and personally in Vietnam. Mark’s a cool cat 👍

Another great video Dan and thanks to Mark for sharing his experiences!

Thanks Dan once again for opening up the world for me. I am nine months from retiring and your info has really got me revved up for slow traveling.

Thank you , Both very much.......Great Intel !... Mark reminded me of a CSM ( Command SGT. Major ) advising his men when they get "in country" .....Take Care...

Enjoy the information from both of you. Thanks for a great interview Dan.👍🙏👌

Good hearing from you, Dan

Great video on affordable retirement spots! Really makes you consider safety too. Super helpful for future planning!

I'm born and raised in the beach areas of San Diego and live in the Sunset Cliffs are. I have been to Da Nang for two months. Its definitely not the San Diego of Asia. I have been all over China and the Philippines and will say it's cleaner than the Philippines and a laid back pace and of course the food is better. The Philippines has some beautiful beaches but the local foods just aren't that appetizing if you eat them for a few months,. The food is definitely better in Vietnam.

This is a good man. He represents us expats perfectly. Makes me happy to be expat in Da Nang He is humble which is what i find this city in particular is perfect for. He is right the locals earn 13,000 an hour. So thats the cheapest coffee. I drove past him and his wonderfuo German Shephard deep in Son Tra quite close to the back part near the entrance to monkey mountain. Its the place i want tobuy land and build a house and live with my Da Nang woman forever. Its not really close at all to the My An or An Thuong area which,for me doesnt feel like im in Vietnam so much but its got the cheapest apartments. 10 000,000 can you get you a 2 bedroom house. Narrow Viet style but its all you need and more. 8 000 000 is enough for a nice studio or one bedroom apartment with a pool The people, food and coffee in Da Nang are the best in my opinion. There are some costs involved. The visa runs can be a cost and need 3 working days to receive. Yes having a girlfriend will bump the food prices to double obviously. You can live on $1000 usd but realistically it might be close to $1600 as you wipp be drinking beers and going to gym etc

I have been leaving in Mindanao, Dipolog for 4 years now including the casual trip to other places like Cagayan, zamboanga City, Pagadian and more and never felt unsafe like in Sydney.

I had a trip to Da Nang planned for March 2020 and covid put a stop to that. I will watch your videos this week and plan my next trip.
