you havent been to europe and us and talk why you prefer asia? what is this "content"?

I wouldn't have taken a betterhelp sponsorship their reputation is bad, it is not a good company do some research on it Niki you don't want to associate yourself with bad people in this way.

A terrible sponsor with a terrible reputation.

Betterhelp is a terrible sponsor. They SOLD PRIVATE INFORMATION their clients gave them. Now they skip from KZfaqr to KZfaqr to because they get called out so often.

I hope you have your own relaxed and joyful time no matter where you're staying!

Thank you! A genuine question: what would you think of a customer that is filming the process of buying coffee and then talked to camera while sipping it?

@@NikiProshin I would hope that you would ask in advance and I would check with everyone in the café and make sure they were OK with it.

Thank you very much, that's very generous 😅

@@VuQuang1973 Good point. I feel the same here in Portugal. We have many people coming as digital nomads or retired from other countries with higher salaries but for locals working locally it's much, much harder to make a living.

Best wishes from Asia, Gerhard!

Greetings from Vietnam!

Every place is great until you have settled down and got into the details of local politics. 😂

@@ggc7318 I had lived through four different regimes until 1979 and I had involved all kinds of politics then. Politics can be deadly there and I had to run for my life but again most of my friends and family members did not make it today. There's still zero freedom of expression there not a chance until today!

Yup. People say south east asia is cheap (minus singapore) but in reality it's only cheap if you live like exactly like a local person would

@@sharpasacueball oh, for sure. 'Go here, live for a month on what you spend now for a week!' Excuse me, you forgot to mention that there's no running water, air con or phone signal. You've got a 15 minute uphill walk from the nearest road and there's no taxis, ubers or grab. Nets and electricity are extra.... Live like a local, not live like a king. Fallacy.

I appreciate that!

show more scenery plz!

Thank you!

Doesn't he? No matter the challenges or turmoil going on, he seeks to find contentment and calming reflection in his videos he presents to the outside world. It would be hilariously ironic if it turns out that the minute the video stops, he talks a mile a minute at the top of his lungs like a Chad bro while rushing everywhere and bashing things.

Thank you Dasha 🙏

@@katiekay3873 that's me after a couple of drinks

Yep, I agree. So many people are quick to jump on the US is bad bandwagon, even when they’ve never been to really know. Like you, I feel safe where I live in the 4th largest city in the US. I even live in the city center. I love to travel and visit other places, and I’ve been to some of the most fabulous cities in the world, if going by popular opinion, but I still prefer the city I live in. It is home for me, for many reasons.

@wespeakforthetrees USA is so big, and people are on social media just focusing on some stupid incidents. A lot was not even in the USA. I have lived in three different countries and USA is the best. Xi Jinping's only daughter has been here since 2010.

Yes, you have a point there. I see what you mean. I am an Asian, who lived in the US, now live in Europe. I also love Asia.

Agree. I see that a lot of the anti-U.S. comments are made by people who have never lived in -- or even visited-- the U.S. In addition to several years in Europe, I lived in Asia for almost 10 years (and loved every minute of it) and the students I met who would bad mouth the U.S. were mainly those who were denied a tourist or student visa and base their bias on that negative experience. From how he speaks English, I highly doubt he ever spent time in the U.S. For a worldly person, his clickbait title is rather irresponsible. He should only be comparing life in Asia to his life in Russia.

@@wespeakforthetrees Yeah, I found this to be quite a shallow and disappointing take by Niki.

Great decision to spend summers in Europe and the rest of the year here in Asia! Sometimes summers are unbearably hot here

Thank you Iyam!

I feel somewhat similar every time when I visit Russia after Asia

Russia belongs to Europe

Nice phone.. Hope you're doing well..

Can you name any?

​@@Esteban_HerreraHi I live in a suburb outside of Baltimore and my life is exactly like this. Real life America is different from the America of social media headlines.

@@johnkennedy3669 Let's hope it stays that way. 🤞

My goodness. I live in Ky and have for almost 40 years, I hardly lock my doors. I've traveled all around the world and the US and been to some sketchy places. Ky has those areas....Louisville mostly, but most of the state, is very calm. Of course crazy people can pop up anywhere, but I hope you eventually feel safe where you are.

​@@wasdq9748 I live in a small rural town in Southern Kentucky, we're overran by meth and other terrible drugs, people who feel they have no other recourse in life but to steal, to usually feed their addiction, an addiction that I want to assume they got because life is just rough anymore, we have inflation unlike anything we've seen in my life, thankfully I own my home no mortgage or I'd be in the streets too, because even in a town of 2,500 people you can't afford rent now on 1 job. most jobs pay $7.25 to a max of $12 if you go to the factories, life has changed in rural Kentucky, unless you're lucky to live in a gated community, our local Kroger and McDonald's has homeless every morning begging for money, and I won't make judgements on why they're having such a terrible time in life, because life is hard and judgement of the poor doesn't help me, we need to focus more on judging the mega-rich who never even pay taxes anymore, while our cities and even small towns are now crumbling

Stop watching TV and I guarantee you won't even have a thought. And don't imagine that danger is inclusive or excluded by Geography. Thing about US is something happens they talk about it as if 10,000 times, elsewhere, they hide it.

I feel the same. It is sad. Churches, malls , movie houses, just too dangerous now in the US.

It is not dangerous in the way you fear. Yes, rare strange things happen. There is no utopia. Asia is fine…unless you deviate from certain social norms.

Great place, nice people.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

Thank you Roland!

It feels so much more relaxing in Vietnam as well as in other countries I've been to recently (except Georgia maybe)

Hi. It's not Pho, it's Bo Kho, a type of beef stew - diff ingredients than pho & the soup is thicker. Re: the leaves, yes that's Thai or Vietnamese basil.

@@kitty_s23456 yes, we get that Thai basil with the pho we get is what I wrote. Looking forward to trying Bo Kho.

@@thepaperboy9009 if ever you're in Saigon (HCMC), go to the Street Food Market. It's like an outdoor food court & the stalls are clean. There was a stall there selling bo kho. Cheers & safe travels.

@@kitty_s23456 ❤ Yes, will absolutely do!

talk to the Almighty for mental health He is listening! dont use repeditive prayers, use your own thoughts and feelings

I think I might enjoy traveling across the US but not sure when I'll be ready to go there. Thank you Lori!

​@@NikiProshin❤❤❤😊

Thank you PoofyPuff, best wishes from Asia!

You just follow how the locals do it. Easy.

and as long as you don't ride a scooter

@@NikiProshin I got hit three times by electric scooters in shanghai, all of them in pedestial walks.

That's why I wanted to mention the safety part! Quite a few people don't realise that. My fav places across Asia: Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai, Dalat

Been in South East Asia 12 years and much safer than Western countries. You need to travel to see reality rather than believe all the propaganda about Asia. It's a beautiful and progressive place.

Do read my comment with regards to safety in Asia. It is amazing what western propaganda media can do to influence many. I love travelling and travel widely but it is a shame that for now, I make a conscious effort to not travel to USA and South America for safety reasons. Even in big cities in Europe, daily petty crimes eg. pickpocket is something to watch out for. Asia, on the other hand, is very safe at least for the majority of the countries eg. Singapore, China, Japan, S. Korea, HK and Taiwan, etc.

Thank you Debby, greetings from Vietnam!

Nonsense

That's a real short drive to Nha Trang, easy to go there for a weekend by the sea!

@@NikiProshin I hope you are happy. I enjoyed meeting Russians in VN. I got so frustrated trying to learn Vietnamese that I started learning Russian so I wouldn't feel so stupid! I don't hear well and tonal VN drives e crazy. Stay well and enjoy!

Thank you very much, Roland! The clouds of milk, nice :)

They have two seasons of the year in Vietnam: rainy and dry. No specific divide intro summers and winters here. It's warm (or hot) all year round

Crosswalk is a new word for me, and I just forgot the word for traffic lights 😅

Herbs, that's right! I often forget this word and just say "grass" instead. I gotta remember it next time. Or at least use "greens"

I am hungry for pho too! Last time the cafe was closed and I couldn't have that!
