If you are in Vietnam for years and meet the right people, you can get something 2 or 3 times as big for $300 It all comes down to your network. His apartment is not worth $250. Connected people can get 2bdrm 2 bath furnished for $300.
Absolutely love your videos Alex, I watch every one of them even after having returned home from VN. Found your stuff back in 2018 and it led me to move to Vietnam over Thailand. Had the adventure of a lifetime up until spring 2019 when I returned home to be closer to family. I wasn’t an English teacher but I bet there are a ton of other people like me who are never NT clients but still have you to thank for their Viet adventures. Thank you for doing what you do and telling the expat story
What!!!! it is so cheap for a modern nice looking flat. In Mexico, in a big city, it is like 3 or 4 times more expensive for an empty flat that you have to furnish yourself :O !
The best thing is the large rectangular shower head that drops (rather than spray) water down on your head. I love that so so much when I were in VN. It is a different showering experience, a more natural and relaxing experience that is one of those things that make life worth living
This is sooo great. Respect to Vietnam. In Philippines this would be 600 dollars, utilities not included. Plus the city will be super boring with no foreigners. This is so amazing. But I know Vietnam and Thailand have very reasoble rates.
Nice apartment, gorgeous view and a low price, so awesome! It's good to know there are plenty of vegan and non-vegan food options. Covid cases are still rising here in California, unfortunately. Hopefully the numbers will dwindle soon. Thanks for sharing, Alex!
Awesome! Thanks for the consistent content. I've been missing this. Awesome apartment! Especially for the price. I think I'll look for a shared house when I first moved there 😊
No need, but one could certainly get a spring style shower curtain that would cut down on the spray… other ways to finagle a bottom wall sort of thing pretty easily too
Great place! That's an awesome deal for DaNang. I lived closer to the beach and it was a little pricer. And that's so cool that there's so many vegan places there now! Cheers! 🙌
In 1980 I had a studio apartment on the top floor of a house converted to apt's. in Sausalito, CA for 250. a month which included the utilities & cable TV. I wonder what that same place is now? So glad my wife & I moved to north CA and bought back in the 90's because housing is so expensive now. Time to set a spell & just relax...
you can get this type of studio atm in the price range 2.7-3.2mil. So if its not inlcuded elecricity and water you should consider renegonitiate the rent with your landlord. i found myself 1bedroom apartment for 4.2mil around 54m2
That’s the price......4 mill for a studio is standard . No more than 5mill. The testing & quarantine will be around for a long time to come.....so prices will likely get cheaper. Already commercial rents are falling heavily. Supply & Demand.....they’re still building skyscrapers all over Vietnam. In Nha Trang most of the big residential towers are close to empty with more coming.
Nice apartment. Westerners must enjoy the cleaning service. I know that here in USA, rent never includes cleaning. You should ask the cleaning lady to bleach out the mold in the bathroom.
Bro you're the best. Loving your video's & when you move out, let me know, I want to take your apartment if I can get it for the same price or around the same price hahaha, doesn't hurt to put that out there. I should be out there by Sept or Oct.
hey i just subscribed so i can stay in touch for future options on moving there... I just took a new job at a medical college with a one year contract to teach first and second year pre med student English after that i might consider moving in the future so i am researching at the moment on options in Vietnam... i have tattoos do the frown upon that there or is it cool? look forward to speaking soon... have a great day
Nice dude, I was looking at apartments around and actually looked at your building. I went for a bit pricer room though in an thuong for 7 million. Gym + pool and comes with a dryer.
Hey Alex thanks for the video, great looking burger you got there in the intro. Which made me think about dentists, and wanted to ask you: what's the situation with dentists in Da Nang? Have you found a good place? Cheers!
What a great find!🤩May I pls have the apartment name/address, (better, link😉) now that most prolly you're no longer staying there by now? Will highly appreciate it-THX!😅🙏
I've lived in my class A RV with a washer/dryer combo since 2011 here in Henderson Nv for $650 a month for the lot with a large yard for my rescues, so your studio is perfect for me if i were traveling solo in Vietnam, ❤your videos, so glad you eat vegan!
In Vietnam you can easily make $10 in 15 to 20 minutes and for $10 extra a day, u will eat very very well. I have had a 2 bedroom 2 bath 86 sq m beautifully furnished apt in Hanoi for $200. It was offered to me. The owner did not want yo rent it to 98% of tenants so it just sat empty for a few years It all comes down to the strength of your network.
How's that area? I have thought about moving to this side but then always found a headache to have cross the main highway to get to the beach road everyday when cycling.
Hello Im an American woman and my fiance and I are moving to Da Nang and we are looking for a nice sized studio or a 2bhk in case they are small! Any suggestions? Also I may be taking your TEFL certification in a few months as well, so please let me know about that as well thanks & we love your channel!
The best place to search is on Facebook groups. Search "Da Nang accommodation / apartment" and join the most active groups. Sounds good re our TEFL! You can find out more here and sign up: ninjateacher.com
Do you plan financially for the future or do you take each day as it comes? I like to make sure I have money stashed for rent for at least a year to give breathing room
Tipping is not mandatory in VN . If you liked the service , you could leave about 4 or 5 % of the amount on the bill . It's up to you . In high end restaurants the service is already included in the price . When you take a tour trip , you could give 1 or 2 USD to the tour guide and the driver, if you liked their service . In hotel, you could tip the room ladies 0.5 to 1 USD / night . It's always appreciated
Alex how did you manage /or how do you manage to prolong your stay in Vietnam itself? Did you have to apply for a work permit for e.g 5 years. If so how is the process done properly? Sorry its a completely different set of questions towards your video. Thanks for sharing 😁👌🏼
Hi Alex I read that the company supplied your apartment. Did your company pay a bond and rent per month. By the way what is a Ninja teacher? I have taught ESL in the North Vietnam sometime ago now. How do you get a Temporary residence in Vietnam? Cheers Eileen
