After 4 years living in the capitol city of Hanoi, I've decided to move to Da Nang, Vietnam's 3rd largest city located near the beach. I documented a bit about the move and finding a place to live. Everything has been great so far. The food is delicious, there is cheap streetfood everywhere. The weather is great and all the locals have been very friendly. I'm excited to explore all over Da Nang and make lots of videos about life here.

@ArtAndAnne Год назад

Everything seems to be quite convenient to transport. It's great to live in a place that's both close to the city and close to the beach. Well done you guys 👍🏻

@TravisTravelsVN Год назад

Yes cheap and easy to arrange, relative to any western country

Travis, thanks for your content. As a long term expat in Thailand and someone who likes to get right to the point, I have found your information and delivery extremely helpful. I tried the steak and eggs you suggested and it was a great start for the day. I would definatly make that a normal spot. Thanks

Very nice place. It looks spacious. The cost of moving is cheap! How's the weather compared with Hanoi? The beaches are so beautiful. More videos about life in Danang would be awesome. Thanks 🙏.

@TravisTravelsVN Год назад

Yep moving was easier and cheaper than I thought. The weather in Hanoi is mostly not great about 10 months out of the year.

👍😇❤Wow. So cheap to move and so quick to find such a nice apartment!!! Was it about $400 a month? How far do you live from My Khe beach ?? Anyway, can't wait to see your upcoming new vlogs from Da Nang!!! Thank you for sharing!!! ❤

@TravisTravelsVN Год назад

The house is 15 mil a month so I think about 600$. I'm 800m from the beach. Do you live in Da Nang also? Thanks for commenting!

@anonymousperson2345 Год назад

@@TravisTravelsVNYeah. I have a feeling it is more than $400 / month. 😊😅Anyway, very nice place. 👌 I live in California. BTW, it's soo expensive right now in the US. You got to love and treasure how cheap things still are in Vietnam 😊

Love the videos mate! When you moved to Vietnam did you need to open a local bank account for income? Interested to know how all that works as I'm considering moving. Cheers

@TravisTravelsVN 6 месяцев назад

Yes I have VN account. Not every bank allows foreigners to open an account but there are a few that will let you open an account with just a tourist visa

@Digitalnomad8 Год назад

Travis your videos are super amazing and helpful. About what price range is your 3 bedroom apartment I’m really thinking of moving from Hanoi to Đà Nẵng or HoiAn as well. I’m currently enjoying Thailand and Hanoi. Both are great but love to try out Đà Nẵng. I’ve only stayed their for 2 days on Vacation so far. I love south Pattaya and Phuket so Đà Nẵng sounds like a great option as well

@TravisTravelsVN Год назад

Thanks for the comment man. I have a 3-bedroom house for about $600. It is definitely more space than most people will need. You can get nice 1 bedroom apartments for $3-400. I also like Phuket a lot but Da nang will be much lower cost of living.
