Why Living in Vietnam is Better Than America

In this travel/expat vlog, I discuss why living in Vietnam is a better lifestyle for me than living in America. I go over both the pros and cons of living abroad and help give you an idea of what life is like for an American foreigner living in Vietnam.

I know that everyone’s experience is unique and your opinions may differ from mine. That said, I’m interested to hear what you think, so feel free to leave a comment below!

This video was filmed in the Phạm Viết Chánh neighborhood of Bình Thạnh District, Saigon, Vietnam.

Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed this food travel vlog.

II went to Vietnam for Vacation 20 years ago, stayed for 2 month, went back to America sold everything within 6 months went back to VN and been here ever since.

Vietnam is really something else. I’m travelling Southeast Asia right now and i think at the end. Vietnam will be Nr. 1 of all countries for me 😁

[angryashell]

Food is better. Life is less expensive. People are happy. No crime. No guns. No politics. Just a beautiful wonderful place 😊

You feel more alive in VN man. There's always ppl around. It really helps with my depression.

My sons are moving to Vietnam soon and we will follow a year later once they are settled! Can't wait ❤

I have been travelling South East Asia for 4 months now and Vietnam is hands down my favourite country! 🇻🇳

Living and working in America is so depressing. I’m working 7 days a week 10 hr days just to stay ahead of the game. My social life in non existence and nothing is fun anymore. My family barely spends time with me, we only live to work. I don’t see it getting any better for us..

I am Vietnamese living in California. Just came back to Saigon for a short trip and that had changed my mind of wanting to go back there and live cuz I feel more like home and welcomed. People are friendly and everything is great.

I now clearly understand why Anthony Bourdain (RIP) loved Vietnam. Vietnam, it grabs me and doesn't let go 😁 I missed its delicious street food, I missed its spectacular scenery. I missed Hoi An. I missed everything. I gonna be back in Vietnam in December, which will be my fifth trip to Vietnam!

After spending nearly three months in Saigon earlier in the year it made me appreciate certain things more about living here in the U.S. especially living close to my family and having a young daughter. At the end of the day though I have to agree with you that due to the cost of living we really enjoy our time there in Vietnam. It was also really nice to have all the help from my wife’s family with taking care of our daughter. Our lives here in Seattle are just your typical go to work and come home 5 days a week. Enjoy our weekend and then do it all over again. Everything has gotten so expensive we rarely get to do the things we enjoy. It doesn’t really feel like living life to it’s fullest. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'm in Vietnam for 3 months. Been here a month and a half already, but I also lived in Philippines for 4 months and lived in Thailand for 1 year. Trust me, the feeling is the same in Philippines and Thailand too.

I’m so happy for you. Cost of living here in the US is out of control. I’m glad you chose VN as your new home. You’re actually walking around the neighborhood that I grew up in.

[markholland]

am back in uk selling up all my stuff to head back over end of this yr with no plans of ever coming back to live in the west again! can't wait to get back!

[kimberlybentleyme]

I miss you too. I am glad that VietNam makes you so happy and inspires you. As long as living there gives you joy, then I am happy. I would rather you be happy and fulfilled. I miss you terribly, but your happiness is all that I want. Talking, texting, and video chats help. In a lot of ways we speak more and our conversations are much more meaningful when you are away. Also, anytime I am really needing my Tyler fix, I can just pull up one of your Vlogs. Win for me. Love you. Miss you

I’m Vietnamese living in the US for about 45 years now. I go back there almost every year for a month or so… What I really like is that it’s so lively every single day, compared to here. I’m glad to see you like it there, because it takes some courage to move to a country you’re not familiar with. I do plan on living in Asia half year, and back to the US the half, when I retire.

[thangvo]

I live in Orange County and enjoy a comfortable life, but Saigon and Vietnam in general feel like my true home. We're planning to return soon and make it our permanent residence. We only have one life, so it's important to live where you're happiest. Thanks for the videos! I first discovered you through Alex on Ninja Teacher. Keep up the great work!

Vietnamese friends, please support the channel. The person who transmitted the image of Vietnam to the world. Thank you!!!

[greenalien]

Vietnam is real and the people are genuine and they dont take anything for granted they are kind loving and happy and it shows in all the things they do.

[michaellefevers]

I was in Da Nang, Hue, and Hoi An in Sep 2022 and had a blast. As you said, the people there are incredibly outwardly friendly, and in the best way. The prices can't be beat.

[AlFakherFan]

I live in Da Nang and I am really happy that such a people are coming to Vietnam too. Thank you for the video, you look honest person.
