I live in Vietnam. If I stop eating rice, I'll starve 😂

This is the one car I've bought that I will never sell. Fantastic car, that drives like a gocart.

I live in Asia, and normally, "salted cheese" is a bad translation for lightly salted cream. Also, (in Vietnamese anyway) water is assigned to any liquid. I'm assuming this is a lightly salted cream soda

Tokay gecko facts - the tokay and it's sound are thought to be a good omen of successful business in Vietnam. Apparently they also make good jerky!

I live in Vietnam, and I'm here to tell you that bugs and rats are more expensive than rice. I've eaten them all 🍽️

In Vietnam we're losing crop because of saltwater backflow on the Mekong. Dams have been built in several places upstream and all the reservoirs are being filled.

...how? Like, it cost $30 (10 gal) to fill my petrol car in the states. Even if I was using 150kwh in electricity, at my power rate in Wisconsin ($.13/kWh), it's $19.95. I live in Vietnam now, and pay 2500 VND per kWh, and petrol is about 23500vnd/litre. I have an electric moped that goes 110km/charge, and has a usable capacity of about 0.7kwh. I rarely empty the battery, but even if I did it daily, it would be .08USD/day.

I'd like to see the math crunched on this.

Edit: I found the math. It's dishonest. Shocker.

In Vietnam, I think it's just most names 😂. Anh Nguyen is probably a good example. Most Vietnamese have the last name Nguyen. The national naming conventions rival that of religious families in the west. Think, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Anh, An, Thanh, and Minh. Women are the same, but named after things considered beautiful, Tuyet, Hong, Pham, Van.

Funny enough, many names aren't always gendered, so I've met a decent amount of couples with the same first and last names. An Thi Nguyen, and An Van Nguyen is a couple that comes to mind. I dont have to worry about doxxing, since I bet that exists over 1000x here.

400/400 Viettel in Vietnam. I pay 2.5m/VND a year. About $114 US.

Da Vinci Resolve all day.

Hey guys! I'm originally from Green Bay, Wisconsin. I live in rural Vietnam now. I used to travel as a network technician for large events with media streaming and broadcasting. Excited to have a new community and looking forward to lending a hand where I can!
