Very informative and insightful. I am always traveling with you through your vlogs. South Africans don't travel much, but you inspire me to start traveling. Thank you my brother, may you continue to be blessed abundantly in your endeavors
Told you bro. Vietnam is a friendly and drinking culture 😎 I do some things with the locals when they invite to join just to appricate them and respect
Africans seem to get far more respect and love in many Asian countries than in the west. They don't get that in American aligned countries like South Korea and Japan. I wonder why.
African and Asian societies have very very deep cultural ties going back millennia. They are BOTH are 'we we' people, as opposed to the self-centered and misguided 'me me' obsession that dominates the Western mentality. In fact, the Confucius Ideology, which stresses group mentality and dominates in Asian societies IS rift on the African Ubuntu, which emphasizes the fact that an individual's existence comes about as a result of the group and is therefore rooted in the existence of the group -- family/clan/tribe/etc

Years back, only very briefly, someone told me about the Vietnam-Russia affiliation thing and that some older Vietnamese could speak Russian but I've only just confirmed that today...fascinating. I like these videos with you and Ira exploring.
I really thank you and your friend for going out and capturing the scenery and local happenings for us, in the rain no less. I love ancient looking buildings and architecture so this was a real treat for me.
Thanks so much for letting us see your adventures all over Asia not able to go to these places on my on but its amazing to get a glimpse thru your blog again thank you 😊 🙏 and please be careful
15:27 It's is good in Feng shui (the back based on the mountain, and the front view has water), and very good in the atmosphere, water makes the temperature cool down in summer.
Fel you are my favorite TH-cam channel international South East Asia 🌏 traveler. I have learned so much from watching 👀 your videos. So much value in each one that you post. We get to see 👀 what a Tourist channel video would never show. And that's regular people who are just living, and enjoying their lives.
Highlights for me! Fel finally got the helmet he wanted and got a contact hit from a bong🤣🤣! You know he's a good guy/novice from his reaction to it! 😂😂
15:08 In Vietnamese cultures, the yard is an open space in front of the house, a place to dry agricultural products, and also a common living space in the afternoon, evening or when the family has work such as weddings, death anniversaries... The garden is both a place to grow vegetables and fruit trees to serve daily life, as well as a green space in front of the house to create landscape and environmental harmony. In particular, families or spacious grounds often have additional ponds and lakes, which are both places to stock fish and water hyacinths to raise pigs and chickens, as well as create open space and help regulate temperature, especially in the summer. The constituent elements in the above model all have their own effects and when placed as a whole, they interact with other factors to create a harmonious microclimate, a healthy environment for each house, and combined, they will create a clean environment for a village and residential community. Especially ponds or lakes not only have environmental effects but also have great feng shui significance. Feng shui, basically means wind and water. Wind is created by nature, but humans can influence it to adjust the strength of the wind or the direction the wind blows. Water is also created by nature, but humans can also create their own water environment such as digging ponds, digging wells, digging irrigation ditches or directing the flow of rivers and streams. The essence of feng shui is Qi. Qi carries the natural energy of heaven and earth as well as human energy, affecting everything, including humans, living under the influence of Qi. In feng shui, there is a basic principle that "When air meets wind, it disperses; when it meets water, it stops"; That is, the wind causes the Qi to disperse and move with the wind, but when it meets water, the Qi will gather. If Qi wants to affect people, it needs to gather, so water is an extremely important factor because water helps Qi stop and Qi gather. That explains why ancient people who chose land to build a house, establish a village or, more broadly, establish a capital or establish a country, often chose a place with a water source. In small-scale projects, if there is no available water source, people create artificial water sources by digging wells, ponds, lakes, and these water sources in feng shui are called water gathering points or Qi gathering points. Also known as gathering wealth. Especially in religious buildings such as communal houses, pagodas, palaces... where there is often a very strong Qi flow, most of them have lakes in front or at least wells.
@GaryCai yes, basically all countries that have cultural exchanges with China, most Southeast Asian countries that follow Buddhism and Confucianism, have known and applied these things for thousands of years.
Before 1990 Russian is the first foreign language in Vietnam especially in the north so there are many vietnamese who were 55 or older can speak russian From 1950s to 1980s hundreds thousand Vietnamese were sent to Soviet Union to study All 6 Vietnamese billionaire can speak Russian
@@bgee5098 ,,,agree,,,,but after 1954 ,,,North VN became a puppet of China & Russia ,,so they were brainwashed by Communism theory and their regime communist government had sent a bunch of them ( younger generations) who has “”communist backgrounds families only ““were selected to go to Russia studied & worked for a long time ,,,and when the Russia Federal communist union was collapsed in 90’ ,,,a bunch of them went back to vn ,,,and that why these people (55-75)be able speak Russian.
The countryside in the North of VN is very much resemblant to that of many parts in Southern China while the countryside in the South of Vietnam is similar to other Southeast Asian countries.
Wow, the building from the 1950s was really shocking to me either. I didn't even imagine it was possible. 🤯🤯🤯 And I love the spots you choose for your videos, that means a lot for the content you make, thanks ❤❤❤
Having water in front of the building is good for feng shui. Actually you also need to have a mountain, a hill, or something big behind the building. It's called "see river, turn back on mountain" location. It's believed to be good.
I think this is the Vietnamese new year which is called " Tet" (sorry I don't know how to write it correctly), and we eat banh tet during this festival, which is more or less what you ate (glutinous rice with pâté - like meat inside) 🙏
When you drink beer with the family, they say it was an infrequent chance to meet someone from far away, from Africa visiting Vietnam. It's fated to see you. They basically very welcome you to join their meal. I hope you're having a good time in Vietnam
A quick reminder Fel, Ghana has good diplomatic ties with vietnam when Osagyefo was around. He was part of a ceasefire and peace initiative to bring the war to an end but uncle sam didn't like that....
Those wondering why some Vietnamese speak Russian? The Vietnam war was a proxy, Russia and China heavily trained and supplied the North Vietnamese. During the war American soldiers noticed that some captured North Vietnamese soldiers were speaking a different language other than Vietnamese. At the time, Americans didn't know that the language was Russian. A Chinese language was also common in that area. Had America not gotten involved in Vietnam, the country would be an extension of Russia and China.
Are you stupid? Had America not got involved, VN would have gotten its independence and peace. North VN was not a proxy. North VN asked Russia and China to help it BECAUSE the West divided VN, made South VN its own proxy. What a dumbass notion.
its not right,tho? Vietnam actually have a border war with china right after the unification,in 1979. Many Vietnamese knew Russian because they used to be overseas student getting their scholarships in Russia.Tell them they are an extension of Russia or China, they could beat you up lol.
@@valeries0817 There was a heavy Russian influence in that part of Vietnam, the CIA disrupted Russian operations which lead to the war. The teenage Vietnamese snipers were Russian trained.
@sneat2028 - are you daft? North VN was not a proxy of Russia or China !!! North VN and Ho Chi Minh asked Russia and China to help him fight for VN's independence from the French after the US refused to help him and VN as the US was supporting France's return as a ruling colonialist. The US was afraid with Ho Chi Minh's popularity in winning over the French will win country wide election, the US and its colonialist cronies divided the country and never implemented the election they promised. The US then used South VN as its puppet proxy to start and continue the war. Without US involvement, VN would have gained its independence years ago and with much less violence and deaths. It's us Americans that started the war in VN in the 20th Century and it's North VN with the requested help of Russia and China that kicked our ass. Nice try to re-write history and cover up America's war mongering bud, but you failed miserably. Read our own history books in US university, government documents in Western countries. Your sad and pathetic attempt at trying to deflect is amateurish at best and moronic at worst.
You better smile boy... you don't know where you're at! (Some of those folks look like they're STILL pissed off at Americans... and you look "American.") Real smart to wear that little helmet. 😅

I'm a Vietnam Vet no way I can forget, It's a beautiful country, would love a return visit after 55 years and no weapons involved 💯😎

Not too friendly when everyone gets drunk. There are murders anywhere due to alcohol.

Unless you are Jamaican. I noticed that there are Japanese who love Jamaican culture and would emulate it

86% of Southerners are also Kinh (Viet) ethnic people. They have migrated from the North and Central regions to the South in recent centuries.

Kurtz Kaz was wearing the American uniform wich is very offensive in my opinion.
You should use the real helmet (like your wife) instead of the war helmet.
The village looks poor and dirty compared to Chinese's. The people seem to be quite friendly though
People just do not show that they do not like black, that is it.
Dude your so luck....😂
Mans getting a gf in Vietnam 🤪

Fel, its better not to talk about Ho Chi Minh because not all Vietnamese like him.
where is your new girlfriend 😅
She’s enjoying in her village 😂
Focus on the video, Don't worry about where another mans affairs...
