    Today we leave Sapa and head up and around through the North West regions of Vietnam. This video is filmed over three full days of driving and I have to be honest and say that this area is my favourite of Vietnam so far!
    This video captures so much, from cooking with locals, visiting the worlds longest glass bridge, exploring the rural farms, hanging out with local kids at a watering hole, and just absorbing the incredible scenes of this part of the world.
    ENJOY the adventures in VIETNAM ❤️

    Paddy, oh my goodness - your approach to Vietnam is so different from everyone else's. The way you are capturing the people, the landscapes, the culture - in a cinematic way that is truly amazing. I have watched dozens of TH-camrs covering Vietnam, but your methodology is something unique and extraordinary. Your editing has again evolved to an even higher level that tells a compelling story. Keep this approach up. I loved Thailand...but you are hitting new levels in Vietnam!

    Rice paddies, water buffaloes, chickens, and ducks! Now, look at the Vietnamese kids playing in the mud on a hot day and having fun jumping from the huge rock into the blue-emerald water, in the middle of the spectacular natural scenery! This is in fact the dream of many of us. They do have the best life as Paddy mentioned. The Vietnamese kids are certainly living the dream, aren't they?

      As long as Vietnam is still ruled by the oppressive and exploitive Communist regime, her potential remains greatly diminished. For any 1% that wants to stay, 99% of the population wants to get out, and many have risked their lives doing just that (for example, 39 doomed lives found in UK container truck recently on the news, and that's only what's been reported), unfortunately. Yet another shocking and also recent example is that during the Covid pandemic when almost all countries assisted their citizens with financial aids in one form or another, the corrupt and murderous Vietnamese Commie regime saw it just another opportunity not to help but to exploit its ruled citizens even more, essentially making money over the corpses of its citizens by presumably killing at least 30K of them, due to misdiagnosis and being and cramped into barbwired unhygenic living quarters for isolations, so that they had to sleep on the concrete floors, with inadequate food, water, or medicine, like animals, with the fake nostril Covid test kits, mislabeled as approved by World Health Organization (WHO) in Việt Á scandal, colluded by at least 4 different government agencies (Y Tế , Khoa Học, Công Nghệ, Quân y) and the top Politburo members, including Nguyễn Phú Trọng, Phạm Minh Chính, Nguyễn Xuân Phúc. Murderous Vietnamese Commie regime even had a thug murdered Christian pastor Giuse Trần Ngọc Thanh, like it has done with many other pastors across the nation. There is a reason why the current Commie Vietnam ranks at the bottom of the world in freedom of speech and freedom of the press, barely above Commie China and Commie North Korea. Similarly, its passport ranks at the bottom, 89th out of 111 countries for a reason, barely above North Koea 104th rank. even below many African nations. For comparison, South Korea 2nd rank. That's what Republic of South Vietnam would have likely been ranked among at least the top 10 had it not been invaded and occupied by the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists, aided by Commie Soviet and Commie China.
      Travelers to Vietnam in her current form (not at all like this before the Communists took over) should keep this in mind. Behind the beauty of the land and smiling faces at popular tourist destinations, there are a lot of darkness and sorrow, horror, and sufferings all over the country.

    Apparently the Bun you had in Son La is not Bun Cha (as you said should be bbq pork belly and bun with fish sauce), but it's written on its banner: Bun ca (without "h") which makes it the bun with fish (cá). Enjoy your riding :) As a Vietnamese, who has never had a chance to travel through my own country, I envy with your experience :)

    I do agreed with you this is one of the best video in your Vietnam trip. Thank you for putting in all the difficult efforts, thousands of hours, passions , courage and commitment to capture the Vietnamese life in country side. I like most the boys playing in the muddy water, climbing high up the rock, jump down , swimming. Not many children in the world have these opportunities, a lot of children grown up with mobile phones, internet games, thick and heavy text books such as bangkok, Shanghai, Kuala Lumpur , Singapore etc, etc…If those kids in those countries I mentioned above seen your video, they must be jealous. Your video is so special and different with others. You play attention to details trying to show the world like us do not have the opportunity to travel like you to enjoy beautiful view of millions dollars- driving motorcycle through a cave like the local did, excellent job, keep going your good job paddy , I salute you!

    That lemongrass chicken dish looked quite delicious, it's probably the best in the region. The rural landscapes with bright lush greenery are absolutely breathtaking.

    Northern Vietnam has wrapped it's arms around you and gave you a big hug.I sensed that in your voice as you were describing the landscape and the locals. The pace of life in an urban setting forces many to skip or miss out on life's simple but necessary pleasures. Those kids playing and swimming is what it's all about and your narration of it had me teary-eyed. Keep up the great work Paddy.

    Did not know Vietnam has the longest glass bridge in the world. It looks amazing. Also, the Golden Bridge in Bana Hills won the world's leading iconic tourist bridge category at the 2021 World Travel Awards after having beaten 11 other rivals including some of the world's iconic bridges such as the Henderson Waves Bridge in Singapore, Panorama Langkawi in Malaysia and Mishima Skywalk in Japan. Both of the bridges are definitely on my bucket list when I am back to Vietnam this September.

    Gracious my friend. I know you had the benefit of a location that just painted beauty where ever you pointed the camera but your skills and incredible production value is off the rails! Quite seriously, this video, rather this entire series so far, rivals any high level production from the best of highly compensated and funded professional shoots out there. BBC has nothing on you Paddy! This is absolutely broadcast ready from the sequences you have selected, the artistry of your edits and the story you have constructed both visually and in the audio. What a thrill to say "Hey! I know this guy!" Thank you.

I am touched by how you said you wanted to roll up your sleeves and connected with my people in the rice fields. I would love to do the same. Continue to have a great time and soak in all these wonderful experiences. Please stay safe. I was worried a bit when you went through the cave in pitch black darkness.
