Insane how far Vietnam developed... from opening itself to the world late 1990s.

I lived for 10 years ( I had to come back to Canada a few months ago) in Ho Chi Minh city, mostly in district 7. In Phu My district which is next to Phu My Hung district you can find very nice 2 bedroom apartments (in towers) with swimming pool with huge gardens. Rent : $550 US a month fully furnished. Internet 80Mbps up/down unlimited for $10us/month. Electricity not included. Phu My district starts just after the Canadian International School which is very close to the Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, and a few American Internationals schools. Nice Video . I'll go back in November if they open the border .

I happened to come across this channel and totally got hooked! The video is perfect and makes me think it’s some travel tv show. The narrator’s voice is clear and perfect! Everything is just enough and the whole Saigon is in just one video. Great work!

I am a Vietnamese from California. I love your voice and your video content. You sound like a voice from a Discovery channel. Thanks for showing my homeland to the world. Love it!

My first thought when I saw your clip in KZfaq recommendations was "another clip about Saigon made by another expat". I'm glad I was wrong! I guess you must like Saigon pretty much to have been living there for the last couple years, and to be able to professionally made such an informative and interesting video. You know, Saigon loves you too! Thank you John and all the best for 2021. Liked and subscribed.

The best video i ever watched about Vietnam, very informative and straight to the point. We need more KZfaqrs like you

I am from North, have been to HCMC many times and felt in love with this City, friendly, alots of side walk cafe, foods, restaurants, shopping.. thanks for your in-depth look about this fantastic city in VN.

Very professional with interesting perspective from a foreigner. Thank you !

Great profile of an amazing city. So many cultures within a 20 minute scooter journey. Thank you.

Very professional edited and quality content. Subscribed.

Normally I visit HCMC twice a year, but since 2020.... Can't wait to go again.

Wow, this is a great video with informative breakdown of all the different districts and what each has to offer. I really appreciate this video for the array of scenes and wealth of information. Probably among the best I've seen thus far. Awesome, please keep it up!

I am a Vietnamese, but be honest, you knew Saigon city better than me. Thank you for sharing the vital video. Keep up the good work.

Hey John: I really enjoyed this latest video. Well done and professional. Nice camera angles and very informative. You are a very good presenter and your facts are spot on. It is so relaxing to travel with you and to explore your world. Thanks,......

A wonderful presentation and easy to understand and figure out what you showed us... thank you 😊

Love your all your videos, thank you for making this video about Vietnam, I'm very proud. Wish you good health and your channel continue to grow more :)

Looks much different than the last time I was there. Less traffic, more quiet. Maybe because of the Pandemic. I miss VN. Hope to be back soon. Thanks for the video.

Happy New Year. This video appeared randomly on my KZfaq, thus far was the best synopsis of Saigon that I've seen. Thank you for sharing. Just subscribed.

Thanks for the video! All these places would be great to live, but District 3 definitely takes the cake for me. There's an amazing community vibe here and exploring the Hẻms have been a joy.

Been there and experiencing the most of it and wanna be back there again soon the pandemic is over! Great content!

Very helpful and interesting content and delivery. Thank you!

I was born, raised and lived in the central of Vietnam until 18yo. Then moved to Saigon and attended colleges there for 3years (I also was back and forth just to visit the city until moving there for my college). I went to the US in 2008 to study and have been residing here for almost 13years now. I am about to go back to Saigon to start my new endeavors. Very nervous and thrilled at the same time since I have to learn everything all over again. Thank you for the informative video. I learned more about my homeland again through your lense. Hand downs to you, sir!

Amazing video John keep it up I miss this city very much

Fantastic video, John! A A great promo for the city!

Another excellent video John! Very informative. Your amazing voice plus great videography make watching your videos very enjoyable and additive 😊Thank You.

Hey John great to see you again. Hope you had a great Christmas and just wanted to wish you a very Happy New year and may 2021 bring you much success, joy and happiness. Stay safe and catch up again real soon.

Love the quality of your work. Very skillfully done.

Keep up the great video's John

Excellent and comprehensive coverage. 👌👌

What a great informative video! I really like the human pace of your editing and ability to pick out highlights of each place. I think Vietnam would be a great place to be an expat!

Love your material and content John. My favorite Caucasian expat in Vietnam.

Great video. Very well put together. I, like many others, am getting pretty anxious to get to Saigon. Keep up the good work!

Great video for someone moving to HCMC or just exploring the city. 👍 Thanks and wishing you a happy and healthy New Year from the USA.

I enjoyed this and other videos of yours very much! In comparing your view counts with others in VN, I think your skill set is highly underappreciated.

I ❤ your chanel John !! Thousand likes from Canada.

Thank you for this video! I’m considering moving over to Vietnam for about 3 months and this video really gave me a lot of helpful information. I appreciate it, thank you!

I don’t have words to praise your videos- keep it up 👍 always waiting for your latest videos.

Great video John! I like the format of your video. Very informative.

Thank you so much for sharing these videos! I feel like I could definitely travel again, even if virtually!

You by far make the best videos in Vietnam. You just point out the facts and how things are. Straight to the point.

Very interesting and informative. Saigon has really changed since I was there many, many years ago. Thanks for sharing.

I can tell your a thinker. Thank you for an excellent presentation! See you soon.

Hi John . Beautiful scenery. Thanks 🙏

Very informative and probably will watch this video again when I come back to VN in the near future☺️ Thanks John and stay well!

Great video!! Thanks John! As so many others have commented your voice is just awesome to hear! It would be great if you would talk about health care options in the future. I would also like to see inside some of these apartment options you mention if that's possible.

Very informative . So many unique and inviting areas to choose from.

your music selection was so amazing ! Great video

John....best video yet...love your style and content

I want to move to Vietnam in the next few months, so (obviously) I've been doing a lot of research. This video is easily the most descriptive one I've seen here on KZfaq. Keep up the great work!

Another Insightful tour 😘👍🌻

Quite a pleasant video to watch. Your video has such a calm manner that makes me wanted to watch more of it. Thanks for sharing the vegan information you as travel around in the video, this is a plus...thank you!

Very good video. Alot of information. Happy i find this channel

Hey John came across this video randomly, what a great watch. So much good information and you have such a pleasant way about you! I've back packed a lot over the last 10 years and some of my fondest memories have been made in South East Asia. I've always thought about moving to either Vietnam or The Philippines and the prices you explained seemed so reasonable. Thanks for the inspiration and stay safe 😀

Thanks John , great information you , first time I viewing your video, definitely will watching gain

Thanks John. I lived in Binh Thanh in 2016 and 2017 and miss it everyday.

love this video. thanks for promoting my hometown

Absolutely Awesome Video John

Mr. Saboe. It's really a good video with nice pictures, good music, informative script and your podcast voice. Thanks! Stay safe!

Quality style video mate 😎 Thank You

It's such an informative video! Love it

Love your vlog professionally done and your voice is amazing once the pandemic is under control I plan to go back to VN soon! Thanks and have a happy new year 2021 👍

Great video ,many thanks .I was in Da Nang ,Vietnam 🇻🇳 in 2018 about 11 month ,it was a good memories for me. .warm greetings from beautiful tropical paradise island 🏝 of Kauai. ❤

I loooove how you broke it all down, explained and showed on the map. Appreciate it. You got a new subscriber :)

Great contents! And I love your voice, too, it is warm and charming!

Excellent content, exciting city , exceptional video, thx!

I really enjoyed your video John. Thank you for presenting my hometown to the world. Like and suscribed from NYC.

How amazing your voice is! It sounds like a voice from the Discovery channel that I often listen to learn English. Thank you for your video and come to Vietnam.❤

One of the best videos on SG!👍👍👍

This is very useful video ! thank you for all these info !

Another high quality video. Thanks for the tour. I went to Vietnam in 2016. Then again in 2017,2018(twice), 2019. To me the difference with Vietnam and the US is that in Vietnam you're excited to live life when you wake up each day vs the latter which is a series of daily routines. Originally, I planned to live in the US 6 months and then travel to VN for the other 6. But getting married with a kid threw a wrench into that plan. BTW, the man at 7:50 is selling 3 coconuts for 20k. That's cheap even by Vietnam standards. I once paid 16k for one in Da Nang and thought I was getting a bargain.

Thank You very much for this over view.

thanks for the vid! it was of great help!

This video was hands down the best video I've seen regarding HCMC. Thank you for your thorough content. I liked and subbed!

Very professionally done and I enjoyed it. The quality reminded me of Rick Steves. Thanks John.

Great Video. Much love and respect from Phnom Penh , Cambodia.

You should have way more than 20 thousand subscribers. I watched your Taipei videos before my trips there several years ago. They were very helpful to me. I just found your channel again and it's just terrific. I was going to go to Da Nang and Hoi An last February but was able to cancel my trip at the last minute fortunately. I'll be living in BKK in July and Vietnam is the first country I want to visit so thanks, again, for you videos.

LOVE this video. Super useful and to the point, with some great shots too! Thanks :)

Very good and usefull info's provide here. Excellent work.

Great episode! Nice to see the scaffolding off of the D1 Cathedral. **Pro Tip - GREAT bar in D7 called Ruby Soho. Tell Freddie (owner) that Grant (the music photographer from Australia) sent you. Stay safe - jealous that you're there. I really miss it.

Nice video! Especially like the slower pace of it. And cool track at 4:00!

Great video, sir. Well organized and photographed as well as providing an informative overview of TPHCM. Great voiceover work, too. Starting to plan for a 'gap year' retirement somewhere in SE Asia and Saigon is on the short list. Many thanks!! [Subscribed!]

I would love to move there soon. Thanks for the video!!! I love Vietnam!!!💝💝💝

Awesome video! I’m hoping to move to HCMC soon, so this was really helpful

Thank John for this nice review.

Wow that is amazing... great video. Tks!👍👍💖💖💖💖

I have move here to work for 10yrs and business and love it

Thanks John for a great video. It is very informative. What terrifies me the most is crossing the streets in Saigon. Drivers never yield the pedestrians. :-)

Thank you very much, John. You prepared a very informative, yet simple and straightforward video, and as many comments suggest, the way you articulate the information is extremely professional. Great work.

Thank you for the beautiful video! 👍👍👍

Just discovered your informative channel. Terrific content!

Very comprehensive video, I learned more about a city I’ve lived in for almost 2 years, great work, very professional 👍🏼

Thanks so much for sharing

Very awesome to watch videos and look for the more Vietnam video thanks

I rarely comment on KZfaq, but I have to say that this video is perfect on all levels. I really enjoyed watching it. Thanks a lot!

Thank you. Beautiful video 🌺🌷

Thank you for your informative video, I enjoyed it, I used to live in Saigon for 4 years in Phu My Hung. Missing Vietnam so much!

I luv HCMC and I miss the place so much, hope travel restrictions ease up soon, so we get to taste such wonderful PHO again :D

Their medical and dental tourism sectors are growing like crazy. Esp for Australians and NZ people who fly there and get teeth done for a fraction of the cost. Lots of future growth all over Vietnam. Thanks for the great video.

Very informative vid, thx for that..am a Chiang Mai Thailander right now but checking out other options as well..just being sure before the final move..🙏🏻👍🏻🕊

Can't believed I missed this video. Food and architecture look wonderful.
