  • In this travel vlog series we've moved to Vietnam! We explain the process in getting the cats out of Turkey and into Vietnam. We quickly show you what we traveled with and our AirBnB. Then we move into our new accommodation in Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City. We go out for a late lunch and have some Asia food at a local food court in Vietnam's tallest building Landmark 81. Join us in this series as we showcase our 12 months living in Vietnam. If you have any questions about moving here please comment below, we'd love to hear from you.

    Noticeably, most of Vietnamese dishes are served along with a heap of fresh vegetables and herbs. This quality is hardly found in many cuisines around the world.

    You are right, Vietnamese food was the most healthy food in the world compared to western food.
    In small portions, the savoriness and sweetness of mắm, fish sauce, and MSG can make you double drink per meal.

    • @girlsontheloose1
      @girlsontheloose1  2 роки тому

      Hi Lee, yes I remember meeting you, how lovely! Our cats had all vaccinations as required by Vietnam and we got an export permit from Turkey to leave Turkey and to say the cats were "clean". On arrival in Vietnam the guy at customs just looked at our paperwork and cats and waved us through. I don't think this always happens though and may be different for dogs, especially as I guess your dogs will be in cargo, our cats were in the cabin with us. One of the biggest things to be aware of is booking your pets with your airline and having all the docs the airline requires. Vietnam doesn't really require much, so that part is pretty easy. Good luck!

      Well firstly, very odd that you feel that way. No. 1 the video was about the move to Vietnam and about 5 minutes of a 37 min video included scenes and/or talk of our cats. Afterall, it's our channel and about our move and our cats were part of that. Many people are interested in taking cats across borders. You'll note that in the comments. Secondly, there wasn't one vegetarian dish in the video, so not sure what you were watching. And thirdly, we didn't feel it was necessary to mention the price, but if you were interested you could look through the comments and/or make your own nice comment and ask. Being unfriendly won't get you far in life.

      @@girlsontheloose1 Thanks for the response. First off expense is insanely important especially pertaining to pets, rent, food when considering moving to a country over seas. Second I do not look at he comments because they did not make a video, hence 2nd hand info that means nothing factually. Third comments were made about being "good" when eating out reflecting a vegetarian lifestyle. Third I was not being unfriendly, just pointing out you left out obvious gaps in information viewers would like to know. So those looking for simple facts that you could have mentioned, you did not - so you wasted time. Just STATE, the cost to move my cat from A to B, or cost this much to live here.
