@Larsay I wish the trend never picked up. It just seems so trashy to see all these people covered in them and weird piercings. It is not attractive, especially on women! 

If we are talking straight up and down, day by day... I would guess it rains 280 days of the year. I do not know for certain though, I just know it rains a lot even if it is a light drizzle.

The weather in this area is a delight if you have never been. Especially when you compare it to other hot spots and locations around the world. You get amazing weather and so much bang for your buck.

I never went to an amusement park in Vietnam. I have been to so many of them elsewhere, it never crossed my mind. I think if you have a kid, it would be a fun experience though.

If you main goal is to save up for a trip to Vietnam or any trip for that matter, then start a funds jar. This helped my friend be able to afford her trip. Just throw money in the jar every week. Even...

Squats are always said to be the best but some people say that kettle bell swings are better. You just have to make sure you do them with proper form or you can hurt yourself. A friend of my works a l...

Knowing some of the language will definitely help. I think if you plan on going here more than once, it is worth learning the language, even if it is just a crash course.

Yes, it is all over. It is not really a thing to wear minimal clothing while at the beach in Vietnam. They like to be respectful of others and the women do not want that kind of attention, especially ...

Yes, I do. I believe positive energy and thoughts as well as being grounded in love allows for things to come to be. I feel all humans and animals are connected through a spiritual force greater than ...

If we have any sort of war moving forward, I can't see it being lead by people. It would be a lot of drones and un-manned machinery. Controlling things from a distance. Probably hacking and things lik...

I know sitting or standing for extended hours if you have bad posture will cause problems. Most people seem to have some level of bad posture as well. So I am sure it does play some sort of role.

I like the way you can just take a bike ride or a walk and see so many fascinating little places to shop from. From food to flowers, gifts, and even used goods. It is a lot of fun!

I think it is still considered "normal" there but it is worth noting that dog meat is not a poor man's meat like many assume. It is more expensive than pork and not as widely offered in restaurants. I...
