the funny thing, i've just dove into the gemini web to find out, what interesting can be found outta there. and stumbled upon your post about Vietnam. My wife and I will be in Vietnam in a few days. For the first time in my life. cheers!
Thanks! Happy to share as much of this place as we can discover. We're so happy we copied the earlier drone footage from the bridge off the drone before it hit the building later that evening! 💀
Great content guys, arrived in Danang on a 30 day Visa😊 Big mistake, now I have to do a border run to Laos😅 Did you have any issues flying your drone b 4 its untimely demise🤔🙏
@@kelvine.sutton4280 Thanks! The Lao Bao border run isn’t too bad though, and the scenery on the way there is stunning. With the drone no issues. The only problem was the eventual building it (yes I) flew into :)
You are going to love this place. I was there last month and just came back to California last week. Missing that vietnam already! Make sure u visit hoi an. Hopefully the weather - rain won't be so bad. Have a great time
Wow great video guys. I’ve only been here for a week in Danang and also never want to leave. But will have to return to Australia so already feeling the nostalgia you refer to. I’m hoping to get back before my 3 month visa expires as 2 weeks is too short. Great work with the drone footage and being down to earth and lighthearted in your reviews
Awesome comment, thank you! Hope you enjoyed your time in this amazing city and yes, hopefully you can get back again too! If you see us around next year, say hi. Safe travels.
Yes! I heard this from lots of friends I've made over the past 6 months, especially March/April when many were in Da Nang from Chiang Mai due to burning. Feels like many cool creative people hop between the two. Maybe we'll catch you there from next year! PS: Coworking Danang is a cool coworking spot and community, and do ice baths every Friday morning at 9. Go along and meet some of the cool people there.
I'm jealous of your ability to stay in Da Nang for extended period of time. I really like VN, its people, food, scenery and great value for what you get, be it for goods or services.
Da Nang is such a vibrant city, everything is accessible and there are so many options for one particular things. I went there and I had no idea which café was the best. Turns out that's the thing I don't like living in a big city. I went to Quang Nam westwards, found one little café in the middle of a small village under pricking hot weather, it was such a relief and I felt every drop of the coffee there. People are so humble and welcoming. I saw a huge jackfruit hanging on the tree and asked them if they were ripped. They cut it off and served us for free. The landscape, with no doubt, is way too astonishing.
After watching your videos, I’m totally hooked on Vietnam! The combination of the affordable cost of living and the absolutely amazing food makes it hard to even think about leaving. Your content has really highlighted how vibrant and irresistible this place is. From the street food to the local culture, it’s like a never-ending adventure. I might just have to extend my stay indefinitely! 😄🍲🌍 Appreciate you guys sharing videos! please keep posting more about living in Da Nang or other cities in Vietnam!!
@@virtualtour4u This is so cool to hear, thanks for the lovely comment! You’re right, Vietnam is an amazing country with so much to offer. We can’t wait to be back after Thailand! 🙏
You guys are great. Wait for you guys to come back to Vietnam. The people here are very friendly, willing to help others not for anything. The coffee here is wonderful . Miss you both.
@@locyentam Awesome comment, thank you. We put a lot of effort into the edit and trying to make them as fun as we can, so really appreciate this comment. 🙏
I can recommend Koh Chang. Not many people know about this island but it’s very lovely and not so much tourists than the other islands like Phuket or Koh Samui
Thank you for your time and posting. One question, please. How do you apply for a new evisa after three months. Thank you. I'll be there in October to see if I want to retire there in January. Great drone work.
Thank you! You apply for the 90-day visa (assuming it's available for your nationality) via the Vietnamese immigration website. It's a smooth process. If you're in the country, you'll need to leave, apply, and return (or use a local agent to speed that up).
@@martinrue Thank you. So, if no agent, you can just make a copy at a print store or something? So, if I wanted to pay you for your time? How do I do that... It won't be millions. ;)
@@Mr.DJones Once you're issued the visa via Vietnam immigration, they email you the document. You can print it, some people just keep the PDF. Either way, when you arrive, they know you have the visa and stamp your passport appropriately. No need to pay me, happy to help!
Thank you for your videos and I am waiting for your next video from Thailand. Good to see both of you enjoy traveling together and have a good time. Da nang is a cheap place to live in Vietnam and safe too. Good luck on your trip to Thailand.
@@richdb1115 Awesome comment, thank you. Means a lot to hear that as we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be real and make the videos fun to watch. Thanks for that! 🙏
You'll definitely prefer Thailand as its a lot more fun there. Da Nang is more of a chilled vibe. Also, if you want to long-term SE asia, Thailand is a better option as if you want to be in DN long-term it will be better for you both to start teaching Engish. As they are slowly starting to crack down on visa runners..
Great video guys! In today's world of many having a brushed up online persona it's refreshing to watch you being very real and relaxed. Me & Vivi are in a very similar place.. we will be leaving soonish and we already can't wait to come back.
@@OliBarrettTravel Thanks Oli, especially coming from someone who knows YT as well as you do. Right back at you, of course. Your videos are a great example of how authenticity shines through and also how strangely rare it is. Looking forward to seeing what you get up to next and let’s hang out when we cross over again in the future 🙏
Maybe it's time for me to take a trip back to VN. Family fled to the US while I was 3 during the fall of Saigon 49 years ago. Perhaps I'll wait for the 50 year anniversary. I have no memories of my birth country. Thanks for the inspiration and cheers!
Our plan originally was to go directly to Hoi An and hang out at Hub, and we've been several times at this point, but Da Nang captured us! There's just way more going on. But yeah, depends on the vibes you're after. Hoi An is very pretty and more chill. The great thing is that you can be in one and easily go to the other - it's a beautiful 20 min ride from one to the other.
@@martinrue Agree 100%. Same same but different! Yesterday I actually went from Son Tra Peninsula to Hoi An, then back again, all in actually quite a short space of time, with lots of beeping my horn along the way 🤣

@@theent01 We considered this but there’s already so much good info. Just watch the stuff from the last few weeks, as prior to that there was a lot of mistaken info.
3:07. i really like the fresh air in this place and go to there every month. i don't know, how you can get here, I haven't seen foreign go there before
I think you have made an excellent choice to remain in Thailand and/or Vietnam. I suppose you both will divide your time between the two countries. What are your visa options in Vietnam? Good decision.
That's right, we'll be in Thailand half the time and Vietnam in the good weather months Jan -> May/June, before it gets super hot. In Vietnam, the best option is the standard tourist Visa, which gives you 3 months. You can then leave and come back for another 3, and some people do this on a constant cycle.
Nice video guys! I have one question: You always hear how bad the internet over there is. How was ur experience in general? If your job requires strong and stable internet, is Vietnam ok for that?
Thank you! My first remark about Thailand was how much better the internet is. It's true that in Vietnam is can be quite bad. That said, you can also find some really good connections. Some co-working spots, and even some average cafes end up having 100mbps lines. I was at Coworking Danang (awesome community + space, btw) and their connectivity was great. YMMV, depending where you are, but in Da Nang there were plenty of good spots. Still behind when compared with Thailand though, unsurprisingly.
@@martinrue Yeah, Thailand really is amazing on that regard. Have been there last winter and never had any issues whatsoever. Thxs for the quick reply and all the best to u two! 😉
@@benjamingensch5507 Thanks so much, and sure thing - happy to help. Give me a shout if you end up in Da Nang anytime next year. We will most likely be either here, or there. 🙌
...⭐️⭐️⭐️ Đà nẵng phát truyển được như ngày hôm nay một phần cũng nhờ cộng đồng dân du mục kỹ thật số như hai bạn đến sinh sống và quảng bá. Và Đà nẵng là một phần của hai bạn hãy thường xuyên đến với nó khi có thể! Chúc hai bạn thành công cho những dự định của mình💪 Thái lan là một nơi tuyệt vời đấy 👍
@@martinrue awesome, I wasn’t sure if they’d stop you if you did it too many times! I did 4 months in 2023 on the 30 day visa but I wasn’t sure if it changed since they brought out the 90 day visa 🙏🏻 thanks so much for the reply 👌🏻
No they’re still okay with multiple entries, especially via the common routes, such as Lao Bao from Da Nang. Of course, this can change at any time, but so far so good!
You rock mates! Thanks for sharing such a beautiful vid and the love you both have for DaNang. I'm a Danangian btw. Get back to the city and hope you both have great experiences :) Cheers!
I think so too, I was planning for a 2 week holiday there, and it ends up bring a 3 week holiday because it was still cheaper than 2 weeks due to the flight ticket difference. I leave on 14th - $800 I leave on 21st - $200 In 6 days there, I will not spend 600 for accommodation and food. It will be less.
For us, lower cost is not the biggest factor. It's the community of awesome people here, it's the way the city feels, and it's the Vietnamese lifestyle. It's everything combined. Of course, it's also really nice paying reasonable prices for things like coffee and food, instead of insanely hiked Western prices for the same thing.
@@martinrue Your welcome, keep up the great work,enjoy your touring around. I've seen quiet a lot of VN, returning there in a couple of weeks ( after 5 years) ...Cheers..
