The 2 ladies in the alley were comedy. The younger one thought you wanted them to make the coffee for you 😂. The next guy you gave the hat and shirt to thought you wanted him to model the clothes you just bought 😅. Vietnamese people are some of the friendliest welcoming people you can meet. That guy grilling the meat woulda invited you to eat with him and woulda called all his friends and family over to meet you.

More solid content. You are a natural presenter. You almost ticked every box....you were kind to the locals, were an aussie rascal, went some places others probably wouldnt go but you were missing one thing that makes the viral content - the unicorn, the black swan event. The thing you cannot predict and cannot script. Sometimes the locals are the key. Keep looking for it. It will come to you. P.S that cobra rice wine is phucking rank i gave a bottle away when i was in cambodia, i can still taste it now. Try a dripping trung Nguyen iced coffee if you are still in vietnam with condensed milk, they are pure crack 😂❤❤

# 4 Watches - Thirty years ago, playing basketball with my 8 yr old son and one of his friends, I got my watch band snagged and broken. I put it in my pocket for a couple months, finally took the band off and just had the face. Lost it ! Went for several years with no watch, didn't really need one. When I retired from the U.S. Post Office I did get a watch from my supervisor - nice but in the 25 years since I got it, never wore it even once. It sits on a shelf. My wife got me an Invicta on a cruise line tour, wore it twice, it is in its box in a drawer. Everyone has a cell phone, why do you need a watch too.?

husband speaking age 80 Mr. Marco - my wife bargains for everything that is possible. At first it really embarrassed me. What are you doing ? Then i learned to just step aside and let her do her thing. Some places look fwd to the challenge. I am not sure I understand everyone using the calculator to show a price unless they get so many folks who don't speak well enough to communicate that it is just easy to show the price. ? maybe.
@marcoroams 5 ай бұрын
Haha it is like that at the start, but totally just their culture, they love it, even though they pretend to be sad at the price they want 😂 Calculator so they don’t have to feel initial confrontation and be clear? I’m not sure

# 3 the sales folks try so hard to make it sound like you are taking the food right off their table. They are almost in tears. You want to see tears, my wife would hide me around a corner and go bargain for something and when she has her price, she would bring me to see what she got. When the clerk sees a foreigner her look could kill.
