You are very much a Cali guy as I watched you grow into a magnificent person in Sacramento and Los Angeles, BUT the amazing vibes you gave us in New York goes to show that you are destined to make the whole planet your scene... The world is your oyster and you, Mr. Vuong are our pearl! Enjoy and stay safe!
As a native New Yorker, every time I'm in Manhattan or any borough besides the bronx (I was born and raised there) I feel so at home and see all the hot people and just look around like okay so where have ya been my whole life. And the whole concept that new Yorkers are mean I feel like is based off people running into strangers that are running late for work or they have somewhere to be so they don't have time to be social. Other than that we can be the nicest people you've ever met, but some of us aren't going to be people pleasers and we're gonna be honest with you and if you don't like it....idk what to tell you. I also find it so interesting how a lot of influencers are thinking about moving to New York which I both love and kind of hate only because that means the natives will have a harder time finding places to live. But like move where you want and come to New York because then I'll get to see you lol. Glad you loved New York!
Dustin thriving in NY is the confidence boost and fresh chapter we're all cheering for! Your vibe totally matches the cityscape. Your videos inspire me to create too. Love from India! 🌟🗽
I think the same, you should move to New York... I also don't like going to clubs, here in Bogotá people are excellent at parties but I definitely don't belong to that environment, by the way I love your smile 💕
You know when you feel something but it's hard to put in words? Then you find someone who can translate those feelings 🤩 I can relate to many things you've said. I think you should defo move to NY. I usually don't like huge cities but I went there last month and I loved!! There's something there.. I just found your channel and now it's a marathon. Better than Netflix.
I agree with what you said about New York. I was there for almost a week and fell in love with the city, the vibe and the people there. I love LA but i feel like NY is calling for me
im rlly scared thinking abt adulthood lifestyle but dustin's vids mainly this one rlly showed to me life is better to live in ur own authentic ways and it doesnt look that overwhelming after all ig HAHAHA btw dustin i think u look rlly amazing in NY!!!
I knew you were going to said you would like to live in NY after visiting, and it is definitely your vibes. Also, I freaking love your videos, your work, it is such an inspiration and motivation for me to create my own.
i felt so identified with you with this video because i was a very confident person, very sure of myself and my personality and since I moved to Florida all that changed and I feel that I am not myself anymore since I have been here, and it has felt so strange and rare for me; It has been a total experience, but thanks to your videos, i feel relatable to you, and is so calm, cozy and entretaining at the same time and makes me feel better every single time i watch a video of yours
hi dustin, as usual, i loved this video as well!! i recommend bestdressed’s reasons for moving to nyc from la video here on youtube. i got reminded of her sayings towards the end of the video. i love your videos so much and i have been a follower since your high school years! ily 🫶🏻
i feltttt you on that influencer comment, in ATL there's definitely a bubble of "influencers," whether it's people who are tiktok famous, people with jobs in acting or film, tattoo artists, DJs, or like... idk... fashion mfs.... but every so often i go to someone's party where literallyyyy everyone is taking pics and the social aspect has gone out the window !!! i wanna get lit and turnt and talk to friends, not take fit pics for an hour! like come on guys what happened to genuine connection! also makes me mad because i start to realize that a lot of these yt girls have lip fillers or these "niche micro celebrities" are just nepo kids..... sorry for the long comment i'm getting back into watching / making youtube vids since i'm on winter break and i love to yap
OMG also felt the public transit comment so hard too... the public transit in ATL is useful for getting to Georgia State or anywhere along the train lines, but if you go anywhere besides directly north, south, east, or west, you have to drive! and traffic keeps getting worse! idk how y'all do it in LA but i respect 🫡 i didn't even think about moving to new york, or chicago, until i considered the prospects of taking public transit and not having a car like that's my dream lyfe
whenever i watch ur videos i feel like i'm listening to my comfrot person :) btw dustin in ny is my favorite cuz i feel like u can love urself more that's why i like it ☝🏻
i'd recommend u to read slow days fast company by eve babitz so much!! the way u talk about la and nyc reflect a lot from how i feel about that book. i genuinely think you'd like it!
I literally went to make a letterbox account during your Mubi promotion because i've been keeping my film reviews in notion and the first movie I added was Before Sunrise. I come back to play the video and I see the Before Sunrise poster on your wall LMAO, full circle moment literally😂
let's be real, LA and NY are the greatest cities of america. fight me!!! so glad to hear you had a great time in ny. also, if u ever wanna do clubbing right, let's gooo~~! ✨🕺🏻
1- I am loving your videos and your storytelling, A1 2- As a new. yorker living in LA, everything you said is so SPOT ON! La is super white, not welcoming, not community driven, and just a no. I will say clubbing can definitely be that in New York, but my suggestion would be find a lounge, lowkey bars. Im not a club girl but a good lounge is definitely key! I miss the great food and people watching that New York has, trust, I am thinking about semi moving back and no one would blame you, lol.
Lmao get tf out of the Hollywood hills cause what part of LA is WHITE??? I swear y’all misrepresent LA so BADLY I can’t 😭😭 y’all expats come here in droves and congregate in the same pretentious places rubbing elbows with the same social climbing rats only to get sick of each other; the problem is within
Why would you compare yourself to white people?? Don’t you know how beautiful you are? I’m a white girl, and I honestly think your features are stunning. You don’t need to change or feel insecure. Not that it helps for me to just tell you not feel insecure…. I know sometimes things are just stuck in our mind and it’s hard to let it go. But honestly, I think Asian people are beautiful and I often admire their features like straight black hair and I think mono lids and narrow eyes are just so attractive. I like how different Asians look and thats in a good way. Point being…. You should be proud of how you look and who you are. I think you personally are very attractive and cute.🙈🙈🙈
Uffff the talk abt expectation going to clubs and being dissapointed is SO REAL.. especially as black woman in a white space i feel so undesired but i dont wanna give a shot BUT I DOO BC IM DELULU and i also want some action. I just wanna radiant a more fun vibe..
