    Im 31 years old, and a life long born and raised Canadian. I came across you guys and 3 other channels with dedicated videos of living in Da Nang. I genuinley after watching this, have dedicated my next 5 months to saving, selling and moving there full time, well... 3 months at a time. I have never traveled much in my life, and this place looks simply incredible.
    E-Visa applied, Safety Wing subscription applied. I am doing this!

      @ yes, cheapest countries would be Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar. And Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines are about the same, depends of course where you are, Phuket in Thailand and Bali Indonesia would be twice as expensive as an average other place because it’s very touristic.

    Been watching a lot of videos of Vietnam in general. I’m a photographer and filmmaker looking to transition into a digital nomad lifestyle.
    I have military benefits that are almost enough to live comfortably in DaNang without worry, but having just a little extra would provide the same lifestyle I live here in San Diego, California. So I think the move might be happening sooner, rather than later.
    Loved you guys sharing all the info! Best wishes!

    We were so pleasantly surprised by Da Nang when we stayed there. It wasn’t part of our original itinerary but we stayed there for a night before a flight to HCMC and loved it! Make sure you check out the seafood restaurants where you can pick your own lobster 🦞. It’s pricey but so good!

    Great video you guys! We're heading to Da Nang in a few weeks for maybe 3 months, so this was really helpful!
    We are both Canadians also so we had a couple quick of questions for you about scooter rentals if you have a moment :) I have a motorcycle license from canada and an Intl driving permit aswell, but Canadians still can't legally rent scooters in Vietnam because canada is on the list of countries that did not sign the 1968 Vienna Convention. So we were wondering did you guys transfer your license to a Vietnamese license for your trip, and how/where did you go to do it? And what are some reputable scooter rental companies with insurance coverage?
    Any info at all would be a big help, Thanks a million!

But we were never pulled over so can’t say what would’ve happened if we actually got questioned. Sorry to not be more help!
      In Da Nang, we rented from a company called “Thanh Cong Motorbike Rental”. They were excellent and have all 5 star reviews. We also made sure our travel medical insurance from SafetyWing (linked in description) covered scooter rentals for any accidents. Hope that helps a little bit!

    “”It’s a steal”” You’re paying over a $1000. A month… yet you can get a nice studio for around 7 to 9 mil dong a month. unless something drastically changed since I left there 3 months ago.

    • @EricandSarah

      It’s a steal compared to anywhere else in the world. If we were there for multiple months it wouldn’t be sustainable, but for having what we had and being completely comfortable for that price is definitely a steal. Plus we were only there a week so not paying monthly prices!
