        @Mizmazzle the Vietnamese blew me away with their kindness, courtesy, and friendliness. Every small shop to big restaurant were always so happy to talk. Anyone and everyone practiced their English with me. If only one phrase. Random people shook my hand or thanked me for coming to their country. Especially when I was with Trang and they could tell we were together. You could see them so happy for us.

        I’m so happy you got your shirt back. I kinda ruined my 212-WHT there and am a little salty about it. I couldn’t imagine a total loss. I’m so happy it made its way back to you. I feel like that’s the power of the Viet people. They really embody treat a neighbor as yourself. Good luck with your tattoo! It’s the year of the dragon 🐉 you kinda gotta do it. Rồng is việt for dragon

          @ARNC haha. That’s a great question. I think I’ll keep bringing it with me everywhere I go and next time not be such a nimrod about jumping out of the car so quickly.

            @Fadez yeah man. Couldn’t agree more. Truly beautiful people. So glad you turned me on to SC/MC Hanoi chapter. Guess they’ve only been open for 3 weeks up here. Of course we had to swing through and support the cause!!

            Chau was jonesing hard on the 25oz Fanny pack. Said it was his dream item.

                  @Mizmazzle the 33b story is epic! When I travelled south east asia in 2017 for a couple months stuff like this happened so often, people you knew for a day spend a whole night helping you out with stuff you f'd up yourself out of pure kindness.

                              @FlavourFade I was in Thai lland December 2016 with a friend, then when he went home I went in to Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and then back to Thailand. Flew to Australia and did a working holiday for a year, then continued the backpacking in Asia with Timor Leste, Indonesia and Japan before heading home.

                              Was away from the UK for almost two years, and I came home with more money than I left with because I was constantly working in Aus!

                              Such an amazing trip, so glad I did it while I had the chance 🙏

                              Nowadays I try to go back to that part of the world once a year, it's usually Northern Thailand because it's my absolute favourite. I can find the perfect balance of new experiences, familiarity, adventure and relaxation there!

                                @T4920 now we talking!! Sounds more than epic. I was in Australia and NZ right before SEA, but did not work in that time... Saved money, quit the job and just travelled, came back with nothing left but great stories, new friends and a lot of awesome memories. I wish I could visit SEA more often, been only once in indonesia since then, but too many troubles in my life the last years. Getting more quiet now and slowly I'm getting my girlfriend closer to the idea of setting her feet in a plane.
