It's not a bad life, is it? Beer, sunset, on an island, on a Sunday afternoon evening.
Could be worse, eh? Could be worse. Good morning. Nearly afternoon. It's a new day. On the way to
another coffee shop. See you in a bit. Okay, we got in the coffee shop, had their coffee,
which is very nice. We said more like a dessert. Now we've been a few hours, done some work,
and now I've got some dumplings with meat. Pelmeni. Agreed. Pelmeni. Yes, Pelmeni, this one.
So, then I want two spoons, nice folks. What meat is inside? Beef or pork or what is it?
Beef. Beef. So let's dig in. Cheers. Cheers.
I feel less masculine now for doing that. Yeah, let's try. Again, that didn't go very well,
did it? Oh no, what have I done? What have I done? It's got ego in one. Okay. I like it.
You need to try sauerkraut. Do I? Do I? With Pelmeni. Do I need to? Yes, it's good. Just
try. It's good. It's a good mix. I don't really taste it. Yeah? I don't really taste it. It's
good. Yeah, I would say it complements it quite well. I would say that is a scrumptious meal.
So, gosh. Okay, so some cafe time spent done and now I'm sitting on the side of a row with a tiny
desk and some plastic chairs. Vietnamese style, waiting for an orange juice and a mango smoothie.
So, it is boiling in here. I'm just dripping in sweat, but I'm waiting for a drink. Right now,
we're in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Walking towards the beach, but thank you for that.
Yeah, beach time. I think it might be quite a wonk for an absolute local area and let's get
there now. The beach arrival has been made. Pretty scenic, eh? It's not a bad life, is it?
Beer, sunset on an island on a Sunday afternoon evening. Could be worse, eh? Could be worse.
So, we've come to the old evening night market. Got a little beverage in hand. Saigon beer,
20,000. How much is 20,000? Around, less than 10 dollars. No, less than one dollar. Less than
one dollar. One euro. Less than one euro. So, that's like 80p. 80p for a 330 milliliter beer.
Not so bad, eh? Not so bad. So, waiting for some chicken fried rice and yeah, let's do it.
Okay, dinner consumed. Now, at a little evening bar, waiting for a drink on the way. Next to a
pool, next to the beach. Little drink and yeah, enjoying the evening. So, this might be the end
of the video for today. So, if it is, we'll see you soon. If there's more to come in the next
clip, we'll see. So, in a bit. Just had a nice little sea dip in the evening and now finishing
off with the end of the fire show, which is a bit speeded out right now. Yeah, good old day
in Phuoc. Phuoc. Back to Ho Chi Minh. Let's have ya. Okay, it's a new day. It is now
Monday and leaving Phuoc airport. As you can see, about to enter the airport.
Back to Ho Chi Minh and let's see what it has in store for us. So, let's go.
Okay, we are waiting to board. Sorry, double shirt.
Yeah, we're waiting to board. This is the plane that's going to take
us to Saigon, Ho Chi Minh. Hopefully, I'll get there in one piece.
My ticket. Yeah, see you in Ho Chi Minh.
Just like that, back in Ho Chi Minh, Saigon. You're back. You made it.
Didn't die. We made it. How about? Okay, since we're back in, you know, still in Vietnam,
back in Ho Chi Minh, I thought I would come to the most Vietnamese place I can think of
and there's nothing more Vietnamese than McDonald's. It just screams local culture,
you know, local people, no foreigners. Just, yeah, one of the most. So, let's get me a burger.
Okay, food done. I'm going to chill for a little bit. Now, we're off to a little coffee shop for
a bit of work. A few admin jobs to catch up on and yeah, might get a drink. See what happens. So,
let's walk there now. Little 5k by the riverside. On the iPhone, obviously.
Bit easy to hold and yeah, let's get this run in the Ho Chi Minh waterside in the warm evening
weather. Let's finish it off. I'm finished. Spent like anything. Time for a chill for the rest of
the night. If you watch this, please leave a comment. Let me know what you think and I'll
see you in the next video. Goodnight. I thought that was the end of the video but it wasn't
because I've ordered a curry now but I decided, I decided that it needed to be spread around the
apartment and I've just absolutely thrown it everywhere. I've spent the last 20, 10 minutes
on my hands and knees. Be careful with this guy. He throws away like curry everywhere.
But the last 10 minutes on the hands and knees cleaning up curry. So,
now I'm going to try and eat some floor curry. It's been, it's nice and cold. So, goodnight.
