Our FAVORITE Place in VIETNAM
This is our favorite place in Vietnam. Ninh Binh is located south of Hanoi and is a true gem. There is a plethora of things to do, many of which we did not have time for. When we went in September there were not a lot of tourist. The homestay we stayed at was magical and incredibly relaxing, which was exactly what we needed after spending so much time in cities.
Where we stayed: Lotus Field Homestay

We hiked 8 miles round trip to Tom, Dick and Harry Mt. Our friends Younghee and Sam invited us for the journey. The views were epic, even during a torrential downpour. Mirror Lake is located 2 miles into the trail so it made the perfect pitstop.

    just found this channel after wanting a preview of this hike i plan to do this weekend. You guys are rockstars to do this with kids! Also, it is going to be 95+ degrees this weekend when I do it, so excited to see others accomplish this in similar conditions. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Hello I hope you are well. I researched your channel and found that your channel has some problems. You need to customize your channel to increase views, subscribers and even monetization. If your channel is a little optimized and if the videos are SEO then your channel will rank very fast and your channel will grow. Your channel SEO is very low(15/100). Do you want to customize? As soon as you upload the video, if SEO is not done, your video will never go viral and will never reach new viewers. I am waiting for your response. Have a nice day. Thanks & regards Aysha

    Why are so many beginning UA-camrs Ignoring their travels to Cambodia and Laos, but not Thailand and especially Vietnam? I swear it feels like every western vlogger is in Vietnam. An be careful wearing any souvenirs that shows the current Vietnam flag in western countries because all big Vietnamese communities will try to threaten you and curse at you an call you a communist. Especially in America, Canada, and Australia.

    • @benle7

      Because Vietnamese and Thai food are much delicious than Cambodian and Laotian food also Vietnam and Thailand are more popular countries and more beautiful than Cambodia and Laos. Are you jealous? Overproud Khmer!

      When you first visit the US, where will you go? Texas, California, New York, Nevada or Florida, right? You don't go straight to Arizona, Oregon, Maryland or Montana for the same reasons. You go to the popular places, with delicious food first. Also, both countries have the highest views on UA-cam travel channels, the more views the more money.

    I hope you guys are confident and not insecure because your kids are going to steal the show :-) They're going to get all the attention and you will feel like props :-) I'm just kidding but you get the idea. Enjoy VN, its friendly and helpful people, the delicious freshly made food at incredible prices, its diverse and at times spectacular scenery (especially in the North). Take advantage and buy a lot of streetwalk fruit smoothie (they buy fruits early each morning) as not only are they delicious and healthy but refreshing in the hot humid air. If you like coffee, you'll instagram yourself to death with the numerous independently owned cafes and their unique decor. Learn a few Vietnamese phrases and don't be afraid to try them out as that will go a long ways towards getting help from the locals. Take care and safe travels.
