I'm interested in Vietnam. I'm wondering if I could get some info on any of the following:
>living conditions as an expat that wants to live cheaply and simply
>How long would $10,000 dollars last me there?
>average wifi connection (speed, reliability)
>power outages (do they happen a lot)
>heat and humidity
>best city to live in (HCMC, Hanoi, Da Nang, or other)
>best area to live in HCMC near western restaurants and amenities (District 1, etc)
>etc
Thanks

$10k
Depending on how you want to live, how much moving around you want to do etc, $10k can comfortably give you a year.

simple apartment with AC, homecooked or semi-street food
about 15 months
very fast and good
depends on the city, but not really
5 story 3 bed house with 2 friends is like 60us a month in a really nice area, hanoi wifi is the worst thing in the world, power outages i havent experienced in my three months here hanoi has been perfect temp wise though the pollution is another thing altogether
600us not 60
also in 3 months with travelling from saigon up to hanoi and drinking and gambling like a lunatic i only went through maybe 6kus

(this isn't in Vietnam btw, we both live in Toronto)
the first few weeks were full of cute dates, lots of sex, great conversations
then she started drifting away
after a month she dumped me over text
I think she was just bored and wanted a fuckbuddy for a while. But it hurts because I genuinely liked her, and she threw me away like it was nothing.

Vietnamese often are, the women just come off as angels on the surface. But see how the older women act - they will stab you in the back very quickly.

LOL you just were dating some westernized slut
Most fob Vietnamese girls will at the minimum break up over a coffee date.
