This week in releasing a video where I tell the full crazy story of how I ended up living in Vietnam and how that eventually led to me doing YouTube.

Thanks for your support!

Love how respectful you are to everyone, saying thank you and hello as often as you can, making jokes to help people feel more comfortable… you’re really cool guy!

Absolutely in love with your style of casual editing/commentary. Keep em coming!

Imagine how differently our world would look if everybody acted with the friendliness and respect that you do. I look forward to seeing more of your travels and encounters <3

Love Vietnam, can’t wait to go back. Love this dudes content. Absolute legend.

A British bloke visiting Pac Bo cave, how refreshing! My English brother-in-law says he's watched the Vietnam War doc series and he now understands Vietnam, and I wanted to tell him 'No, that's not how it was for Vietnamese'.  Anyway, my own translation of the last 3 verses of the poem at the end: Rice congee, greens and bamboo for sustenance.  Wobbly stone table for workspace.  Such luxury for a revolutionary.  (Uncle Ho's Humour / sarcasm)

Recently found your channel but it quickly became one of my favorites. Travel, story telling, and a dash of comedy.

15:48 As a German I find this really funny! Great guy, absolute legend!

Gotta agree with the other guys in the Comment Section, found your channel like a month ago but I'm always happy seeing a new Vid of you on my Homepage! Keep it up!

Dude fixed your tire for 70,000đ and you gave him a tip almost double of that, he must have felt out of this world.

Okay, so I believe that last few seconds you talked about this short poetry:
“Sáng ra bờ suối, tối vào hang,
Cháo bẹ, rau măng vẫn sẵn sàng.
Bàn đá chông chênh dịch sử Đảng,
Cuộc đời cách mạng thật là sang”.
I would gladly translate it properly for anyone curious:
"Morning going out to the stream, back in the cave at night,
Corn soup and bamboo shoots are always alright
In an unsteady stone table, translated the Party's history fights
Life while revolution is kinda rich right."

Just a short piece of poetry he made while living and active in that cave also a satire of the life that he had there. Although any normal kid would have to write an entire essay about each word in that poetry. I'd rather not do that here cuz it is already self-explained to most people. Corn soup and bamboo shoots serve as a kind of meal with the main dish being corn soup and bamboo shoots being vegetables if anyone is curious why are they here. It just tells you that he always has this low-budget meal to keep him up with the work.

I got a bit fed up with "travel vlogging youtube" but your energy and vibes are a breath of fresh air Sir! Liking the adventures!

Legend mate. Love the banter, comedy and courage.

I love your content! They way you do your story telling is awesome! Big fan from Denmark!

Been to Vietnam 2 years ago, really loved the people and the vibe, pretty interesting country and relatively safe for tourists.
Thank You Mike for the fun, safe travels!

Vietnamese lost millions of human life to kick out French’s colonial & japan’s occupied, American’s invasion, Chinese’s encroachment. But after all, both French, japanese, American, Chinese come to Vietnam as tourists & Vietnam just became a safest country for tourists!

As a Vietnamese livin in Hanoi, its so nice to see a foreigner get so well known and fascinate about our history and culture haha. And im a skater too, seeing you smoke thuoc lao with the skater guys really hyped me up 🤣

Your appreciation for our history is honestly unmatched, visiting Pac Po, and even knows Uncles Ho poem is something I have not seen before. I reckon you would love going up to the central highland where tons of Vietnam war actions happened.

Great content! Seeing how normal and traditionally nice people still are in other countries just makes me think it’s time to leave the UK! See others still patriotic about their country is amazing

From the Vietnamese community back here in London, you’re doing awesome stuff bro! Love your passion towards the culture and the history.
