@ we can only do January and February , 6-10weeks vacation time . We are used to Thailand , but with all the scams going on in Vietnam we can’t risk it with a 1yr old baby 😁
Wieder mal ein Super Bericht von Dir Samy. Wir kommen am 9 Dezember wieder für ein Paar Tage nach Da Nang und laden dich zum Essen ein, wenn du noch da bist.
You have the absolute most useful and valuable information about Da Nang than any other Vlogger. I can't Imagine traveling there without watching all of your vlogs. Any Nightlife or Entertainment ideas for Da Nang other than Dinners ???
Thank you so much I will be doing my visa run now then 1 week Ha Noi. But then my first one will be a nightlife video :) maybe more then one covering different types and local ones
I am enjoying your videos, I like your tone and way of explaining the various aspects of living in Da Nang. Planning to come over next year for few months once I retire! Are there groups of 60+ yo expats of which you are aware?
@@NightMambo thank you so much! I see a lot of 60+ expats together so I could imagine there are several groups existing. I will do a dedicated video for you in the next weeks. Talking to retired or slow traveling expats in that age.
I'm looking forward to the Apartments Video :). I'll be there in January for 2-3 months! Thanks for all the info, I'll buy you dinner if you're still there 🙂
Thank you for detailed information. I am from New York and will be at Da Nang at Oct 20-25. Will stay at My Khe beach. Hoping to meet in person for a coffee or a drink.
Hi Sammy we previously visited danang and spent 2 weeks on the beach side we are traveling back to danang in April next year we would like to explore the city side is it possible to do a video to highlight places and activities food bars and local attractions inside and outside touristy areas Thx Darryl
Sammy your the best! We're loving watching your videos, so informative, honest & great reviews. We love how you enjoy your food as much as us! 😂 We will be there mid Oct & hope to bump into you to buy you a coffee. Looking forward to your next! Greetings from us in Oz 😀
@@socialsamy We will be staying at Bel Marina Hoi An & then onto Da Nang. We appreciated watching your review of Sala Da Nang as we're staying there 😄. If you have time & get a chance, could you review the Bel Marina in Hoi An & coffee shops & eateries for us? (Please) 😄 We've learnt so much of the Vietnamese language for foods & now know what so many words mean. Thank you & see you in Oct ☕🇻🇳🇦🇺
@@DebbieWorldTraveller i have no plans on going to hoi an anytime soon but if I make it to hoi an before then I will go in and film it:) yes sala da Nang is great. If you can maybe book just 2 nights in Hoi An and extend. Just in case it starts raining when you there then everything will be flooded out in The old town
@@socialsamy thanks Sammy 😄 we have 3 NT's at Hoi An before moving onto Da Nang. We're keeping our 🤞 we won't get flooded out & can enjoy everything in the Ancient Town, especially Cau Lau & Rose dumplings 🥢🍜😁
Love your content Samy! You’re definitely one of the best go to guides for Da Nang. I love Da Nang and hope to go back again soon. When I do I want to meet up with you for an appreciation coffee, lunch or dinner. Do me a favour, could you please state the date when the video was made as I think it would be helpful to your viewers. Thanks
We will be in Da Nang from October till December. Your videos really helped to get a good impression of Da Nang and the hotels - directly booked some of them! 😀Will you still be there for the rainy season this year?
Thank you Sammy for the wonderful information you provide for me. Planning to visit your town in October till March 😊. Waiting to get more info on apartment rentals that’s walking distance to food, gym and beach 😊 Keep up the amazing work
I’ll be there January! We can’t wait ! Family of 3 . From the USA ! I’m a nutritionist and striking coach ( boxing , Muay Thai etc. my wife is a lash specialist and instructor. She is Vietnamese and Cambodian . We love these videos bc u cover everything we wonder about and some ! And guess wat. …. We coming for the foooooood !
Very good video Samy. Do you know something about the medical services? If we need to go to a medical clinic to see a doctor or in case of an emergency if there have some services in english. Thanks for your videos.
Also curious about the heat I see alot of pple asking & im assuming they are not used to it but im coming from Texas where it gets 110 on a normal summer day & humidity is bad.
I have a question, I was curious to know that in the monsoon season when it is raining hard for a long period of time are the restaurants open, or only some of them that are enclosed?
@@GipsyDean nah they are always open. Just it it floods in the center you might not be able to reach there or street vendors might not be arround. But an Thuong everything is open even grab delivery works just a bit slower
I just found you, as I am planning my trip to Danang. Great videos!! A question, if you don't mind: As a German, you can enter with no visa for 45 days. If you want to stay longer, can you apply for a longer visa when you are there, or do you have to leave the country and re-enter every 45 days, if you did not buy the 90 day e-visa ahead of time? I get 45 days no visa as a UK citizen, and not sure how long I will stay. Was just wondering if I decide after 1 week there that I want to stay longer, if I can apply for a visa while there, or will I have to exit and come back. Thanks!
Sadly you have to leave the country no matter what. You could extend in emergency situations with a visa agent but it’s so expensive and very tough and not worth it.
@@GEORGEPappas-q6l I would not come in the rainy season unless it’s now this Month is a 50/50 chance having it nice :)maybe even October but it’s gambling with non stop rain and humid nastiness
@@andyjackson5986 Immigration never asked but Asia Asia does or vietjet too I think. Even if I check in online they pull me out at the gate to check my visa and flight back. I’m German I don’t need a visa to enter but it’s wise to have a onward ticket or anything to show them
for the next q&a: what is your income? what do you live on? how much are your monthly expenses? why did you emigrate? what are your goals? short term and long term? i hope i'm not being too nosy 😅
Als Deutscher kommt einem zwangsläufig der Auswandergedanke 😅 daher finde ichs spannend wie andere das machen. Ich glaube das ist generell ein Thema was viele interessiert. Aktuell sehe ich es bei mir bzw mit meinem Mann nur langfristig in Aussicht, also zb 10 jahre früher in Rente. Mal gucken wie es in 20 Jahren in Deutschland aussieht 😅
@@susangarrard2753 I will share this times visa run to Thailand in a 2-3 part series. Still filming what do u want me to cover specifically? As of now I film what I do in this visa run :)
Wow Samy, thank you for asking…this September will be my first time in SE Asia. I had planned on traveling monthly but recently I’ve been thinking of a longer term stay, that got me thinking about visa runs. I’ve heard some ppl drive to Lao Bao and come right back. I was wondering what that’s like and if people get together for this drive? How long does it take, what’s it like. Your videos help people understand what it’s like. Thanks
I'm glad I can help. A good friend of mine I met here in Da Nang ran into huge issues with them. he overstayed his visa due to those pages and had to pay a big fine
Honking in the Philippines is also normal... I thought first time they are aggressive, because i lived 6years in Thailand and nobody is honking there hahaha
I haven’t been to Nha Trang yet. I hope it won’t rain to much. But at least food tastes better when the heat is gone. If you can go to Ha Noi first it’s very nice in the fall there. I will make some Ha Noi videos in 2 weeks.
I've heard November is the most rainy month. Maybe I'll be checking our Dalat & phu quoc island in the South which are in their dry season at that time.
@@ophelydu26 I’ve been to resort there once 2018 that was nice but I haven’t seen the island yet 😃 tell me how it is then! Dalat is colder then at this time I believe
"It's a loud country" lol 😅. I'm planning to go there in July the whole month. July is pretty busy. According to your advice, book a few days in a hotel then walk around and find a place for the rest of the month. What if it's too busy and I can't get a place. Am I going to be homeless lol 😅?
@@Udjeox there will always be a place worst case you stay in a hotel. Lots of hotels have studios as well. You will most likely eat out almost all time 😃 Subscribe until you come I will have filmed almost every apartment and hotel here :)
