I Used to Turn Down Every Café Invite... Until Today | Life in Vietnam 🇻🇳

I usually start my mornings simply by waking up and reading through your comments. A few of you mentioned that the little bell on Lucky's collar might be uncomfortable for him, so today that's the very first thing I'm taking off. Today I have a special plan. I'm going to paint a mural for my former piano teacher, the person who once taught me how to play for free. Our appointment isn't until 10 a.m., so I still have a quiet morning to myself before heading out. Before leaving, I stepped out onto my small balcony to check on my plants. I'm starting to speak now. The mustard greens I sowed a few days ago have finally sprouted into tiny leaves. A lot of you warned me in the comments about those strange bugs in the soil, that they're not good for the plants. Since I accidentally left them in there, and the sprouts are already growing, I'm not really sure what to do now. I'm just hoping they won't harm the young greens. While watering my chili plant, I also noticed a trail of ants, and underneath the leaves, tiny bugs that looked like aphids. I'm still very new to gardening, so I tried spraying a simple mix of water and dish soap. Hopefully it helps, though I'm a little nervous it might be too harsh for the leaves. Since we weren't meeting until 10, I stopped by a small cafe nearby to grab a quick bite and enjoy a quiet moment. The cafe was already decorated for Christmas right from the entrance. Stepping inside, I was greeted by a gorgeous grey cat sitting by the door like a parking attendant And another fluffy yellow cat, resting peacefully on a table, I wanted to try egg coffee, to introduce it to you all, since some of you asked about it, but they didn't have it here. Do you have egg coffee? No, I don't. Do you have any water? Ginger tea or warm water? Ginger tea or warm water? Ginger tea or warm water? Do you have this type of hair? I don't care. To be honest, I rarely go to places like this, But one of you kindly supported me and told me to treat myself to a nice drink and a pastry. So come along and experience this cozy little spot with me. I guess many of you are used to visiting pretty cafes like this. For me though, everything here feels so fresh and unfamiliar that I just can't stop looking around. It makes me think how wonderful it would be to bring my family here one day. Just sitting together, talking and sharing a happy moment. But whenever I looked around and saw all these adorable cats, I realized that coming here alone isn't lonely at all. They just look so calm and relaxed, almost as if they're telling me, make yourself at home. Cats were drawn to these two jars and I couldn't help feeling a little curious about them. Would you like to know what they are? Look at this board full of sticky notes. These little drawings are adorable. There are so many sweet messages and sketches of the cats and the staff here. It really feels like they're one big happy family. Stepping further inside, I spotted another long-haired cat with the funniest little expression. And it turned out the grey cat from the entrance had followed me in too. Earlier at the door, it seemed so aloof and indifferent, yet now it was acting completely sweet and well behaved. In just a moment, you'll see why. It's finally time to enjoy my breakfast. Just catching the warm aroma of the pastry made my stomach growl with hunger, just as using chopsticks might feel unfamiliar to many of you. Using a knife and fork is still quite new and awkward for me too. Well now you know why that grey cat followed me inside so obediently. Faced with this level of cuteness, there was simply no way I could ignore it. I'm starting to speak now. Like my stomach is the only one still hungry now. So let's finally enjoy this crispy delicious pastry together. Sitting here, watching how relaxed the cats are, completely enjoying this peaceful space, made me want to let go and unwind for a little while too. I fear most is that feeling of helplessness, when I see someone going through a hard time, yet I don't have the means to help them. Having gone through a long difficult period myself, I know all too well how that feels. What's written here? Seeing this instantly reminded me of my little cat, Lucky, waiting at home. I wonder what would happen if I brought him here with me. Would he feel nervous or would he get along well with all the bigger cats here? Before heading out, I left a small tip for the staff member. Looking back at the footage now, I just realized how genuinely happy she was. She even excitedly showed it to the friend she was FaceTiming on her phone. Seeing that, instantly filled my heart with warmth. And it was all made possible, thanks to your kindness and support. Look at that, now that his belly is full, the grey cat is acting all indifferent toward me again. Now, it's time to leave here, and head over to my teacher's house, to finish the mural we started last time. I really wish I could keep sharing more with you, but this video has gotten quite long already. Let's catch up in the next video. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for giving me the chance to spread more kindness and positivity. Please always stay healthy, keep smiling brightly, and take care. I love you all so much.
