Hi Guys, I work 11 hrs a day 6 days a week just to keep the wolf at the door and when you upload a new video on your channel it puts a great big smile on my face and makes that dream of travelling soon closer. Thank you 2 your brilliant 100%
Hug you.
Many youtubers may not know they give us the free entertainments and joy daily for good days and bad days.
Im scare to drive in those small motor bikes. Their driving and the street is too chaotic. I’m surprised your not scare at all
The river at 9:09 is my hometown. It's where I grew up. I wish I were there to invite you guys over my house for a local authentic meal. Great job with that ride. The traffic is a lot crazier on April 30 and May 1st (back to back holidays). Even I wouldn't wanna travel by bike on those days. Congratulations on making it to Cat Tien safe and sound. I think the traffic on the upcoming days would be much more chilled.
🚣 Haha stay steady, you'll need thick ponchos because of monsoon season. Remember that scene where Forrest Gump described the rain in VN seemed to be coming from both above and below? You've now had a wee taste of it. And I was there some years ago too and rode everywhere on the back of a friend's moped. She kept asking me what was so funny because I was breaking into fits of giggles the whole time out of nervousness.
What your dad at the end is what I love about Vietnam. So awesome that you’re doing this!
When you arrive in Danang, there is a famous pass. It is called HAI VAN pass between Danang and Hue.
A must for travelers by motorbike. Please make a video about this trip.
Your dad's comments on that crazy ride was hilarious, reminding me of the TOP GEAR VN episode. It's also early into the rainy season so stay safe on the road.
Is this the beginning of monsoon season?
@@pohanahawaii Yes and "it didn't quit for four months" just like Forest Gump said.
@@gamingnewbie2213 : Haha i loved that scene!
check out Attila and Zae - they are doing Vietnam right now - some of their stops look really cool
Yep, I've been following them. Also Charl & Christine (they actually live there and have some amazing videos), 2Passports 1Dream, Counting Countries, Sammy and Tommy (Sonny from The Best Ever Food Review Show left them a comment...what an honor!), etc.
Tia's smiling all the time is everything. Your Dad and is still a man of many words I see.
Yo guys, good luck and dont forget to have fun! Watch out for the busses and trucks, they really own the roads there. Dont fight with them, u gonna lose anyways! Iam heading to vn on 28th of May and doing the same thing like yours! But my trip is gonna be for 3 months heheh.
Yes, the way Chev drives...passing slower vehicles puts them both in the oncoming lane. Slow down Chev!
You guys are brave and adventurous. Can’t wait for next vlogs.
Vietnam is a very safe country, bro!
It’s so cool that your dad has got to accomplish a goal of his… and share it with you guys at the same time… sums up your whole vibe of living life to the full… enjoy it guys
If I could turn back the clock to when I was 18 or 20, I will do the bike ride from the South to the North Vietnam. Unfortunately, I have to use the lift every time I go up and down the stairs in the house.
As a local, I would say one of the most charming things in Vietnam is Freedom and Safety. I hope you all enjoy the time being here and just do anything you want ^^
Ah that's cool yr dad has joined you guys so awesome 👌
Lovely couple, and well done for taking Dad along for the Journeys
Wow, 7 hours for 75 miles...that's crazy! It seems like mother nature wanted you guys to experience the full spectrum of what she has to offer initially so that the rest of your journey should be smoother. 🤞💪 I was hoping you guys would do more than just Hanoi as the Ha Giang Loop is supposed to be spectacular.
It's raining season here in the South so please prepare for it. I'll rain almost everyday. You can get sick very easily even tho it's not so cold so try your best not to get wet. And use the bike horn when ever you feel unsure, here is how it work: honk once to let people know you're coming from the back or to make sure they noticed you ( in case they're not pay attention), honk twice at crossroad to signify that you're going to cross first and they will slow down to make way for you. It's chaos on the street here but you'll get used to it xD. Just remember 2 second rule when driving: leave room to give yourself as least 2 second to react. And don't make any sudden move.
Let's do it. So cool, enjoy and have a safe trip. They are currently building a highway that goes from southern to northern Vietnam (like highway 1). Most sections will be readied by end of the year.
your butts are the heroes for such bike trip.
hat off to those heroes. Actually this is an art to feel a 2nd rated motel as a 5-star hotel after that heroic journey.
Let the adventure begin. So funny I got the exact same jacket as Cheveyo for my ride there LOL. Your dad is totally right, I have ridden for decades and nothing begins to compare to Vietnam. Well ok maybe Laos lol. I admit I was a bit concerned because of the time between this and your last post. Have fun.
Fantastic trip! I’ve done 4 rides in VN and hired from Tigit the last time in Feb/Mar 2020…….ending with the great escape to avoid enforced isolation in government accommodation as the shutters came down.
So far the HCM road in central and the Ma Li Peng pass from Dong Van to Meo Vac in Ha Giang have been my favourites. Mind you a lovely cruise with 11 course meal in Halong Bay and kayaking was pretty cool as well.
Just don’t fall off a mountain trail on your bike would be my advice, it hurts. (But bamboo and locals will save you!)
Sounds like a fantastic trip. So far, can't say enough good things about Tigit. Their route recommendations alone have helped us find much nicer roads than we would've otherwise.
Your route sounds excellent, we're hoping to follow in your tracks essentially.
You guys are great couple. Very nice of you that invited your dad and had him along your trip. Life is short and spending time with parents is always a wonderful thing because tomorrow is not promised. We have loved ones today but unknown tomorrow.
Good for you guys! I’ll be there Wednesday following your dust lol.
You’re very fortunate to get to ride with your dad. I lost mine a few years ago. He taught me to ride and appreciate long trips. He’d be jumping to join me on my trip if he could. He will be there in spirit, always in the wind.
Hope you have safe travels and a great time, I’ll try to catch up if I can. See you on the road.
Traveling is so interesting. A lot of great ideas people can come up with. Thanks for all those shots. Enjoy your traveling (especially with your dad), take more of those shots, really enjoying them.
Cat Tien is amazing. I rode from HCMC to Hanoi via there too. The guy in the Eco hotel took my phone off me in the morning and punched in a route on Google maps to our next destination.
The normal way would have taken us on the boring highway.
The way he put into our Google map was the most amazing route I've ever done. Massive mountain views no cars was incredible.
Definitely ask for a better way at reception
Be very careful guys . Don`t drive too fast , focus on the traffic . Keep away from the trucks and buses . Unfortunately , you didn`t choose the right time to travel in VN . It is currently the rainy season which will last till end of November . Stay safe and have a nice ride across VIêt-Nam my friends
I don't think it is fun to travel by bike on the road and under the weather like that. You all are amazing !!!
The rain!! We're getting the same here in Phnom everyday 🌧️🌧️ Great to see you on your epic journey. Be extra careful....and invest in another bike. It's better to be safe than sorry.
Does Dad listen to music while he's sucking up the beautiful countryside? Safe trip guys ❤️❤️❤️
This looks like a great adventure, enjoying your vlog and safe travels, thank you for this series.
You guys will have fantastic days ahead. I believe your dad will enjoy this trip the most. Greeting from Canada.
Glad to c you are watching what others on the road are doing to stay safe
good call having ya dad with you
Hoping the weather improves for yous guys so you can enjoy what your doing
Stay safe
Brave hearts ! This is my plan also when I get a chance. Be careful on the roads and enjoy the journey ! Thanks for sharing
must have been an utter madhouse on the road. you guys ride safe and keep well!
Just discovered your channel a few days ago. I love your experiences. Thank you for sharing them! Kudos to you for taking on this travel challenge. I can't wait to see the rest of your journey. By the way, in case you're curious, the fatty pork dish with egg is called thịt kho trứng (caramelized pork belly with egg), and the cucumber-like vegetable in the soup is called trái bầu (opo squash). Made my mouth water! 😊
Thank you for the information, and the kind words! The thit kho trung was delicious, thank you for the name!
So fun to watch you're journeys! Love Cheveyo wiping Tia's eyes for filming! Glad Cheveyo's dad could make the trip! Be safe! Thank you for sharing!!! 💚 🌏🌈🌥
After a hard day riding you have time to post a video - thanks very much. A lot of people enjoy these vids
You are 2 very brave souls. I did a trip from Ho Che Minh to Qynon. Which is about one third of the way by van and that took a long time. I will be following along.
Good luck, guys. Stay safe. Was wondering if you can post a map of your route? And periodically refer back to it...would help us better follow your journey. Thanks!
That’s one small bike for that type of trip! Good luck!
Love you guys! I really enjoyed this one, I get how much of a “trip” it is riding there. You “Bourdain’d” that adventure high level. Your dad is amazing too!
Driving across Vietnam is an arduous journey. In return, you will have an interesting experience
Be safe ya hooligans!
Drive safely guys and now you know what a city of 9 million people is like :-) Tourist district 1, 3, Binh Thanh and 7 really doesn't show you the magnitude of HCMC or Hanoi. Getting in and out of those 2 cities are painful but the rest will hopefully be better. Drive safely though and when in doubt, drive slowly.
Just came across your videos from TH-cam's recommendation. LOVE IT! Be safe and enjoy your time in Vietnam!
Hey! Glad you enjoy the videos 🙂
You're all very brave. Ready for real adventure to the strange places. Respect!
7 hours to do 75 miles?! 😲😲😲 That rain really puts a damper on your day, huh. (that was for Cheveyo 😂😉) I swear we had clothes that took 3 days to dry when we got rained on while bicycling in Indonesia! It's the humidity! Stay safe!
I hope someday i can visit vietnam, the scenery looks similar to Indonesia's rural. Have a save trip ya! Greetings from Bali.
You two are awesome and brave. I have always wanted to ride from South to North as well, but life is getting in the way :) Looking forward to emulating your success and crossing this item off my bucket list. You inspired me! Thank You.
WoW WOw!!! You guys are kicking butt alright...Glad Dad also enroute with you 2. Love all of your video...Please be safe travel and always be aware of your surrounding don't trust no one since y'all don't speak the language...see y'all in the next vlog.
Really enjoyed day one , its so good that you can enjoy the adventure with your Dad . your vlogs are always interesting and so positive , safe travels
Looking forward to watching this adventure! I miss Vietnam, such a lovely country :)
Wow what a crazy ride haha! So fun to watch you ride through Vietnam, and Cheveyo's dad seems to have a good time as well! 😊
9:51 beautiful landscape. Good luck and ride safe guys
I've been missing Vietnam so much, the last time ive been was 9 years ago. Being able to see it through your vlogs of how it is now is so exciting and nostalgic. Thankyou so much and I'm glad you guys are enjoying your stay there
Awww! You guys are just the cutest! So awesome that you get to share this with your dad! Kudos to him for being game! This will make for some great memories!
you guy doing great, safe trip!
This time is the rainy season in VN, someplace will be wild windy, and landslides also. You should check the news more often.
Have a great trip…I did this trip a month ago and it sounds like our routes are familiar (both based in Tigit’s map). Feel free to pm me if you have any questions…I had a great trip and learned a lot along the way
Oh and it gets better, day 1 out of HCM is the toughest.
Be careful with the buses or trucks or even cars, stay far away from them and join the flow of the motorbikes in busy streets. We learnt driving by being flexible and careful with our backwards. Have a good trip!
Amazing trip! I didn’t have a chance to do it when I was in Vietnam! Hope to see the next videos.
Great video, guys. Cant wait to see you guys enjoy different cities along the journey. Stay safe and happy.
Your DAD reaction is so awesome guys. His expressions are priceless. Great job. 👍🍻🍻
I'm Vietnamese and I really like watching your videos travel and experience new things in HCM city. Hope you love VietNam
The soup you ate likely has winter melon in it. On it's own, it doesn't really have any flavor, but it's added to soup for a bit of texture. The soup is likely very light, to help wash down your meal.
Rides safe y’all
It raining season in vn 👍👍👍👍
🙏for your adventure out
Get your camera ready there will be lots of site scenes ahead of you
You have a nice family, have nice trip and stay safe!
Amazing, wish you guys safe and wonderful journey. Cant wait to see next videos
Enjoy the long rides along Vietnam guys! Be careful on the road, do not ride at night time!!
It is rainy season now
Stick to the right and u will be fine
Good luck.❤️❤️❤️
About the food: in the South the food will sweeter than the North. They will add more sugar
And the soup make from gourd. Really nice with small shrimp but i dont think theyre cooking it with shrimp in that place
Đồng Nai is my hometown
On the Labor Day in Thailand, it was also raining. The Weather Bureau mentioned that the cold front from China spread to Thailand, Laos and VN, which then collided with seasonal monsoon wind from the sea, causing widespread rainfalls. It should be the last cold front from China this year. It is weird as normally cold front from China ceased by early April practically every year.
As always, the info is much appreciated! Good to hear that this was (hopefully) the last cold front we should run into! The rain isn't bad, but the cold is killer on the bikes.
What a begining of the adventure, can wait to see your next video.
Be safe and hopefully you guys enjoy this trip.
Love watching your adventures! Always look forward to what’s next! ❤️
Yes! This is what i was waiting for. I love motorbike road trips. And i love you guys. This is the perfect combination. Oh and by the way, your dad rocks!
What an awesome mission!! Good luck and Happy Travels
thank you ... you share your video
My guess for the cucumber/potato is bitter melon! Glad you survived the first day, cheers to many more rain free ones :)
That’s a tough road trip there riding through Vietnam and you guys look totally exhausted….Kudos to you guys 👍
Great journey guys.follow you everyday
This reminds me of my last year’s ride. Hope you enjoy it like I did
You guys are amazing! What a day and your still smiling.
They are building a new freeway from ha noi to saigon now, but it will not be finished until 2025! So there are still too many trucks & cars on national road 1. So be carefully & good luck!
I wish you all have a good trip !
Always great to watch your videos , stay safe on the roads
Awesome guys! I'm glad you arrived safely in Cat Tien. Watch out for those crazy buses, trucks, vans and cars, they definitely own the road, I don't think they would give way to bikes or smaller vehicles. You can try cotton wool for earplugs as it can soften the loud air compressor horns from those buses and trucks. Looking foward to your next video.
What an adventure, have fun and stay safe
The weather's very weir this your: lots of rain during the dry season!
Wow, it’s a big trip ! I think it will be very very interesting. Definitely I must follow you. You guys are very brave. Good luck. Have a wonderful trip. Take care. Stay safe. This will be very exciting !!!
Safety guys pay attention to buses and trucks on Vietnam highway they are driving crazy not like in The USA. Hope you enjoy much your road trip journey!
The soup is most likely FUZZY MELON (calabash), very popular.
This is awesome! Cool that your dad is there too! Haha!
It does rain anytime all day in South East Asia.
Enjoy, and have fun in Vietnam
Great work guys! Stay safe!
Your dad should start his own TH-cam channel. The way he describes things is excellent.
It could be fuzzy squash soup. Your dishes are caramelize pork stew. They r yummy.
*PHEW* Sounds like a tiring one today. That's a lot of driving! Time to rest up!! Looking forward to your next vlog Chev & Tia! :)
enjoy the journey of your life time...vietnam rocks and there is no place like it in the whole world...
Wow 1000 miles = 1600 km!!!!!!
And in the rain??? You all are so brave.
🤗💙👍 A wonderful video! Have fun in Vietnam 🛵🏍
