ABOUT US:
We’re traveling full time, living on our own terms and showing you the up-close-and-personal details of us figuring it out along the way. Sometimes it’s about navigating big, life-altering decisions. Sometimes it’s about navigating the seemingly lawless free-for-all that is driving in Hanoi. It’s moments of triumph and moments of panic. The good, the bad, the ugly - and most importantly, the real and real funny.
We’re not here to tell you “how it’s done.” Just how we’ve done it. And that whatever it is that’s calling you - the way you’ll do it is much more attainable than it may seem. We believe the world’s a more interesting place when people reject convention in favor of what they actually care about. This is us putting that idea to the test - one budget spreadsheet, RV renovation and mountain-peak drone video at a time.
Fantastic editing...going into the info board was cool!
Loved that cool transition at 3:56!
The editing of your video's is always amazing. Great series, Rugged.
With your travels, do you feel safe for the most part, seems your always in some pretty remote locals. May be a future topic on travel safety? Take care.
Joe D I thought that transition at 3:55 was pretty neat!
Loved this, looks like such a beautiful country to take a bike around
Also that drone footage is gorgeous 😍😍
Thank you!
I Like the intro....a lot
You guys are good🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Just added the Ha Chaing Loop to the Bucket list. Phenomenal. Execceded all expectations. Not for the faint hearted. SUITS THE THRILL SEEKER ..PERFECTLY. SCENERY IS 100 PERCENT... SPECTACULAR. ❤❤❤❤❤
Love you guys! Great video as always. Wishing you both a Merry Christmas and a safe prosperous New Year. Cheers from Hugh and Connie
Merry Christmas Hugh and Connie!
New video?! Best Christmas present! 😍
Hehe happy Tuesday! Still another coming Sunday ☺️☺️
You guys are getting better every day! Keep it up! Love your videos.... Hugs from Texas...
Thanks so much!
You are the most bad-assed couple we know! Thanks for sharing your adventures and we love the excellent videography.
A great video guys. Lots of hard work went into that to make it interesting and useful. Well done.
A Junior Mint drink 😍 great advice, awesome editing - loved the fly thru the information plaque into the amazing drone footage! Reading menus like that is so much fun!
Your drone shots are amazing!!!!
how should it happened that tim and fin looks like fall in love with vietnam even during honeymoon vietnam visited
Love you two! I'm from Michigan, Fin 💕
Go green!!
Tim and Fin - As I get older and the years pass along, I find myself putting on more protective gear than I would have in my youth. We like to say, "No judgement, ride within your comfort level and wear what makes you feel safe." Good dialog today. Keep the shiny side up. - GO2Wheels
Can I just say the editing at like 3:50 ish was FIREEEEE. You guys are my favorite :)
Looking forward to my trip to Hanoi & Northern Vietnam, 65 days to go.
Thao Brewster yeah but you should do that everytime you go travelling. I mean even in western europe they dont treat you before paying cash.
I’m so jealous of your video. I plan to ride Ha Giang loop n make a video but I don’t think it’s any where near the high quality vlog you made. Beautiful journey and exceptional quality vlog 👍🏼
great vid ans advice, i agree, too much bagkpakers go to the loop to ride, with ZERO riding experience,and sometimes in duo...and i don t talk about fliflop,short.....they are a danger for themselves..and others too........
The green drink that you take is Pandan not pineapple like they say, Matcha is kind of tea. They mix them to be that smoothie drink. I like you both and very enjoy your video.. 👍😁😁
Yes, that’s why I ordered it originally. It wasn’t matcha green tea though. It was very minty!
Definitely one of your best to date. Thanks.
Phenomenal video!! All three episodes. Wish I was much younger - I'd want to make the same trip! Thank you.
We just finished the same route from Ha Giang to Cao Bang! Some of those roads were so unbelievable!! Even if we did come off the bike on the way! Best trip ever!
Hah oh no! Hope no one got hurt!
We’re fine, just a couple of grazes, lucky we were well covered up. We had two people on an XR150, lost the front on a wet slippery, moss covered switchback and just couldn’t recover it.
It’s crazy to see you took the exact same roads, including the wrong turns to the rivers you can’t cross!
I am living here in Vietnam (have commented a few times already) and it's definitely worth having protection outside the urban area and carrying first aid just in case. I always gear up when heading out of the city now, either my street armored jacket or offroad dirtbike equipment. Around town a pair of gloves, full-face helmet, and arm sleeves are fine. It's not worth the risk if you can afford to adequately protect yourself, most local Vietnamese don't have the knowledge or perhaps funds to spend but I do know some that do. Also, go for textiles and lighter colors in the future and soak your shirt or neck buff in water throughout the day! It's an easy way to keep yourself cool while riding and you will easily dry out after 1 or 2 hours.
are you using your phone or camera to record. planning on during loop in march.thanks for sharing
I ride in Australia, and the agreement I have with Bettie is that I'm allowed to ride as long as I wear protective gear. It's sweaty sweaty times in the summer wearing all the right gear, but it's better than risking coming off with nothing much between you and the road! I do get jealous of other riders out there with singlets on sometimes though!!
Thanks lot , I like watch your video travel all the world. I hope your continous any where you want.
Hi guys, great clip, I love it so much, most with drone. Do you enjoy Christmas in Việt Nam?
13:03 that's Matcha Pandan(kind of scent leaf; it's not pineapple cause they use Google Stranlate, so it's wrong!)
Great Video ! Fin, would you consider taking a motorcycle riding safety course once you get back to the states? Great knowledge for these trips!
Tim has been trying to convince me to take one in the states for years ☺️
My friend is a teacher for kids there teaching English..he and his friend took this ride. He said the same, crazy driver’s.
Hey guys be careful, heath and i hope you guys will happy time for next time with another place in VietNam.
You are amazing ! Please take care !
Nice drone footage....
Just binging videos. Fishers - gotta be Indy!
I'm so envious and impressed with your girlfriend's courage to ride with you to enjoy all the breathtaking and spectacular scenery... 👍👍👍👍👍😘
Wow great video 💖👍💖👏👏
What kind of drone do you use?

The benefits of a communist society, building great telecom networks where you need them, without planning, and broadcasting at high power! VN connectivity is great 👍
Great episode guys.
các bạn có qua lại hàng giang nữa không
sợ vỡ mật còn đâu mà quay lại gặp phải mấy cao thủ lừa nó sợ tới chết
cool video..I subscribe !
Never surpassing anything on a turn. If you think your bike couldn't do that, it probably is true. Know your bike's technical specification. Truck drivers are terrible (They are terrible, especially container truck drivers, stay away from them). That is all to know about safety on Vietnamese highway.

I like your smile,Fin.
basic advice! and still it can save your life!! It is an advantage to being from a poor country, you are used to this!

Re: Internet speeds: Curious, I checked my own speeds....in Seattle, metro, with an unobstructed 180 degree view, top floor/4th. From my living room: 24.06 download. 5.95 upload. Iphone6S+
And Yummy Cafe kicks Seattle's ass! WTF?! Shit, I've got Facebook, Microsoft, and Amazon less than a mile away....and a VIETNAMESE crap cafe is kicking their collective asses. #Pathetic
Shoutout to Finn for jumping on the horse- and excelling, "getting it". I've been riding since I was 22; I'm turning 64 in Feb. I have a '87 BMW K75 and a '85 Honda Elite 80. Curious about the scooters you both rented; what engine cc? Was it enough?; second thoughts? Seeing the route, the drone shots (gr8!).....I'm GOING TO DO that very thing; you both have me stoked to give it a go. I love corners and twisties. And I hate a freeway. Stay safe guys!
Haha so funny Yummy beats Seattle!! 😂 My semi automatic Honda Blade was a 125 and Tim’s was only just a bit bigger (and completely manual). They don’t typically rent big 225 bikes in Vietnam unless you’re on a guided tour like Easy Riders
First! Second to like lol
It’s very dangerous for riding a motorcycle in VN. I would not do that.
