Sightseeing with Rod - PART 03 - Eating Well in Vietnam 

Yes, I do seem to be eating more and eating more often here in Vietnam. Part of it is because I had the chance to meet up with a few people, such as Rod and a friend of mine from India and then later on Daryl from WanderEats in Malaysia. And then there is the fact that Vietnam has some very simple meals that are delicious and are available everywhere. I'm thinking of things like pho, banh mi, and com tam. I find it easier to find good food here and communicate with people about ordering it and paying for it. In many countries, it is a struggle, and I end up just not bothering. It's too much trouble to go and get food. But the people here in Vietnam seem to naturally organize places and understand how to communicate naturally without language. Everything just seems easygoing and not stressful. So I find myself taking the time to go out and find food when I'm hungry. In other countries I might just not bother because I can't face the difficulties. 😁

I don't think I understood what he said at the time. But while editing the video, I figured it out. And I remember that that dish is actually quite hot. I'm sure it is far too spicy for me. That is one exception to my experience that Thai food isn't really that spicy. I don't think I can eat it and enjoy it with normal levels of spiciness. It would be too much for me. 😂

Yes, it seems to be a common pattern for greetings throughout Asia. Saying hello or good morning is essentially asking people if they have eaten yet, and usually have they eaten rice. I like that. 😃
