a weekend in Vietnam | Life at my grandparents’ farm 🧑🏻‍🌾🥬 

The music choice, the atmosphere, the colour grading, and his voice?! Damn it's so pretty. By the way, if anyone wanna go to Vietnam, keep this in mind: there are only 2 seasons: hot and hotter. From a local 💖

THE MOTHERLANDDD

As someone who hasn’t travelled, your vlogs of your journeys fascinate me. You so beautifully capture all the environments you’re in. Always look forward to your next video. Your trip to Vietnam looks simply awesome.

I'm envious of your relationship with your dad... feel like I have a lot of making up to do to my own dad.

The winx stickers on the wall iconic actually

I have stopped watching vlogs whatsoever because they always felt fake or super repetitive... this one was so sweet, and authentic and nice! thank you for sharing this with us 🥺

Side note/observation-when you guys first arrived, at 3 AM, to your grandparents' house, I just have to say that the sparkle on those floors is impeccable. 💖 Sooo shiny, polished & clean. Makes me want to go clean my room asap. Lol.

this has me crying in the school library bc of how beautifully it captures the atmosphere and feelings of being in the countryside in Vietnam TOT thank you for the video!!

Watching this makes me miss my dad. I lost him in a motorcycle accident in 2007. Your dad is so sweet and being able to travel with him is such a gift for you. ❤❤❤

I’ve seen lots of videos of people of Vietnamese origin visiting Vietnam, and this one is just unmatched! Even born and raised in Vietnam, but I barely find peace around the corner like how it’s portrayed in this video. You indeed gave me a second chance to embrace and love my surroundings

I involuntarity cried watching your vlog because my hometown northeastern part of India literally looks like this, and while I love being in a big metro city there's no place like HOOME and its peacefulness. I would definitely travel to viet one day.

This makes me so homesick, I grew up in Saigon and those pink fruits were in our backward (I loved eating them with salt!) Also the boats are so nostalgic to me I lived near a river bed and used to think the boats with the eyes painted on the front were scary haha 😅 how I miss the motherland 💖💖💖💖

Benji, you must have been in heaven with all of the local plants. Beautiful trip. I went to the floating market in Bangkok in 1972. Very similar but a much narrower waterway. Thanks for sharing your adventure.

watching your Vietnam vlogs is just something so special to me Benji 😭. I mean i'm Vietnamese but this such a cool perspective!!

I'm Viet, and grew up in Canada, I was always self-conscious about showing the culture in the homeland. It was great that you were not afraid to show this side of yourself and where you came from. Respect.

Hello Benji, I watch your videos but have never commented. I love your Vietnam vlogs so much. My husband and I got to go to Vietnam several years ago and it's our most favourite place ever. I love the people and of course Vietnam. Thank you for sharing Vietnam with us again. I love the relationship you have with your dad, it's so lovely. Take care Benji

I decided to learrn vietnamese this year wish me luck 😁

this is so wholesome..! Thanks for sharing this with us

Visited Vietnam last November 2023 with my family. It was wonderful to see your grandparents home in the countryside. Mornings when you can open the doors and windows are the best. As a child traveling to the Caribbean for visits with my grandparents was so similar - mornings with typical food for breakfast and the buzz of family moving around. Memories which will last you your lifetime! Thank you for sharing your Vietnam and family in this vlog.

Great to see a bit of Vietnam. You Dad and whole family seem lovely 😁

This feels so sweet to watch, you going to Vietnam and how your family spends time together ❤ thanks for taking time to capture and share this while traveling with family !

I’m so happy you went back and shared it with us again!!! I loved the first Vietnam series you posted. Well produced video!! Peace and love brother.

It's always a treat to see your travel vlogs. They are reassuringly comforting for me. The insights into the wedding traditions were fascinating, I appreciate you showing us. I hope the rest of your trip to the motherland was a wonderful experience.

I love your footage and how thoughtful you are with the content. Thanks!

your Vietnam vlogs are so heartwarming ❤

I am glad you had a good time with your father's side of the family. I hope you and father have or had a safe journey home.

Loved your travelled blocks. The way you edit it’s so calm and beautiful. 😻

Looks like you're having so much fun spending time with your family Benji. The cities and countryside there is very beautiful.

Thank you so much for filming your trip to Vietnam! I always enjoy it when you post about what life is like over there.

You look so happy. It is a joy to see you smile.

That was simply wonderful , I am so glad to have found your channel and your lovely family

I really love this post. Brings back lovely memories of my trip to Saigon a few years ago. I loved the countryside.

I missed you benji :! I never thought I'd this video as much as I did. I really like the simple descriptive subtitles : you just let us enjoy the scenery and the commentary was minimalistic, Thank you :)

Your videos are so relaxing and peaceful!

your vietnam video from staying with your grandparents last year is one of my favourite videos ever so im rly excited for this one!

I always look forward to your videos including your dad. He reminds me of my dad so much…He passed a few years ago and I find comfort in watching your vlogs. Thank you ❤

This video was so beautiful, Benjie! 💚 Thank you for bringing us along!

I love when we get Dad content lol he’s just the best

thank you for sharing much precious family moments

I love the vibes, Vietnam seems like such a beautiful country!

My favorite video of you so far. Beautiful images. Beautiful family.

thank you for sharing your culture and family with us -- love seeing how your passions are rooted in your peoples way of life, so beautiful!

Y'all are SOOO beautiful. Every single one of you ❤❤❤ The floating market was mesmerising. The best part imo. And the fact that y'all travelled together overnight like that, even as a big family, is impressive and inspiring 🤗 Glad you're recording and sharing these moments. I'm sure your family appreciates it the most as a way of immortalising these moments 💕

This was so lovely to watch, thank you so much for sharing your time away with us 🥰

There is definitely something rather special about this guy, greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪

Benji, This is the first video of yours that I have watched. RU-vid presented it on my wall. I find this video of yours to be joyful serenity. Thank you for sharing your time with your family in Vietnam with us.

how special, thank you for letting us join you on this trip

Benji, thank you for taking us on the trip with you. It was very interesting. I love your channel.

You are such a gentle soul. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing.🙏

Nice tour. Thanks Benji for taking us along on your Vietnam vac!

i just love your vietnam vlogs

loved your previous Vietnam videos, so excited to see this new vid pop up in my feeds. ❤

this video was so wholesome and beautiful, thank you for making it

You being able to hang out with your dad is such a blessing! My dad died when I was very young. I miss him dearly.

man i felt like crying throughout the whole video, it reminded me so much of my childhood. and even tho i am home right now, times have changed so much.

This video brought back memories of my trip to Vietnam. It was the first time I really learned to appreciate durian because it's so fresh there! I really loved those rose apples, too! The food and fruits are so good! Loved exploring the river in Can Tho. Great adventure trip!

Wow, Benji! What a wonderful trip to Vietnam with Dad! Totally different vacation vibe, but I do respect its culture! Loved the floating market trip and seeing fruit, flowers, vegetables grown in your own backyard or porch(?) You did a great job capturing family time and the preparation for the beautiful wedding. Very much enjoyed the video!

I'm so excited for another vietnam vlog!! ❤

I so hear you on moisturizer when its hot and humid. I'm from the southern US and in the summer , it just all slides right off!😂. Also can identify with your mosquito dilemma. They love me , too. In July and August I rarely venture outside before sunrise and after sunset. Even with repellent, it only takes SECONDS for them to find me? 🦟 You hair also gets wavier in the humidity just like mine. Loved that bathroom in the eco-cabin. That was gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your cousins wedding with us. and explaining the rituals. ❤

Your video just makes Vietnam sooooo much more beautiful! Hope you get to come to Vietnam more ❤

Your vlog is so peaceful, beautiful and pretty 🥰

i went last summer to visit my grandparent in the countryside of vietnam as well. this video made me all remember it all and miss it so much. the colour grading and this entire videos is amazing! seriously made me starting to tear up!! thanks for sharing benji :) hope you had a blast!

The cabin by the river was so beautiful. The bathroom was amazing 😀🇨🇦

I hope and wish good health for your Grandfather. May he be blessed with seeing his grandson for many years to come.

This vlog is so beautiful. It reminds me of when I visited my grandmother in Puerto Rico. I spent most of my time in the mountains, lounging in a hammock surrounded by nature, enjoying great coffee, a good book, and beautiful sounds. Watching this video brings back memories of when I saw the film “The Scent of Green Papaya”; it evokes that same serene environment. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but the Vietnamese people I've met seem very similar to the people of my culture. We both are very persistent, cherish our culture, and do everything we can to find happiness and survive. That’s to say, I really admire the Vietnamese people, and I hope to visit Vietnam one day. It looks very peaceful and inspiring.

hi benji! i stumbled on this video randomly but just want to say very well done! it's so lovely to see you spend time with family, definitely makes me miss sri lanka and my cousins there. i learned a lot about vietnamese culture and enjoyed your film shots :) your dad filming is so cute haha

ur grandparent's house is really really chill n beautifulll , love the vlog soooo muchhhh❤❤

Thank you so much for sharing your family with us.

This was truly a wonderful video. You have a beautiful family. Thanks for sharing.

Nothing like being with family in the motherland 🫶

Your dad is so precious ✨❤️

❤️❤️❤️thank you for sharing Benji!!! so grateful

As always great video. thanks for taking us with you ❤

Thank you Benji for sharing with us this beautiful video ❤

This video is so powerful for me! I married a Hmong person, and I can see so many similarities in the cultures! Community, love, caring, and food! Hope your trip is rewarding, inspiring, and peace filled!

I absolutely love this, you gave me so much peace ❤ lots of love from Mexico ♥️

So cool your video is so peaceful and fascinated. In many videos about traveling to Vietnam, your video brings us the most reality from the mosquitoes, local homestay, water apple to the floating market and Hue beef noodle soup.

How very interesting!! Thank you for sharing. I'm sure your family enjoyed having you and your father visiting.

Really cool traditional ceremonies. The food looks delicious! Love watching you with your Dad. I love that echo village ❤ Neat to see the markets and people selling from the boats. Thank you for sharing! I really enjoyed the video.

Vietnam looks so beautiful, I hope one day I’ll be able to see it myself but for now I’ll live vicariously through vlogs! Thank you for sharing such precious memories with us.

That was so good! Thanks very much for sharing! It just took me to my birth place which I can't travel so easily, so brought tears to my eyes! Thanks vey much for sharing and happy travelling!

Amazing. I would love to travel to Vietnam someday. The water market looks wonderful. It reminded me of the riverside community in the heart of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, my country. Its very humble but stunning, amazing people, culture and food. Time seems to move different there and thats the vibe I got from your vlog too. We may be divided by kilometers, oceans and borders but we more in common than we think. Love it!

back in vietnam! the Vietnam vlogs from last year are some of the most memorable stuff you've put out, i still think about them from time to time

This was so beautiful and peaceful

I loved to seeing the wedding and the floating market.
