Post new topic

Kieutau

Hi all, I'm Kieu. Can you tell me top 10 things you care when go to Viet Nam (like or dislike). Example: culture, traffic, landscape, work permit, marriage...
I want to know this so that I can help the foreigners solving their problem and I can study English with them.
Thank for considering.

Which things do you want to help when come to viet nam? Sorry if someone said that i am idiot. Frankly, when almost people care and want to know about something. It is important. And some local people, they will help you friendly.

I hate it when I get ripped off.  I bought a bag of M and M's the other day that was half M's and half W's!

The idea then is to eat the W's whilst standing on your head thus turning them into M's   :dumbom:

For newbie's I think traffic is number 1. That and figuring out when you're getting overcharged.

Kieu em oi!
I suggest you take some time to study this forum and try to give a good answer to the queries of expats and people wish to relocate to Vietnam rather than asking like this  :)

Understand. Thank you very much. :)

Yes take the sound advice and take a friend next time you go and buy some chocolate so you don't get scammed .

I'm not a foreigner. But I see top 10 things (like and dislike) arranged by accident

1. Traffic: (bus) crazy
2. Robber and Security
3. Culture
4. People (Vietnamese girl)
5. Landscape
6. Teaching English
7. Environment
8. History
9. Life is easy (cheap) alcohol and smoke and death is easy....
10. (I hate too): administration procedures: very complicated and difficult

:) Do you agree? Anything else?

I tried that.  I asked a Vietnamese friend to go get me some M and M's one day and she agreed.  30 minutes later she returned with her younger siblings, Em Minh and Em Yen!
