Yum. Sounds like you’ll be doing plenty of good eating in Hanoi. Imagine how many kids we could feed here at BUILD on a nightly basis if our food budget was that low! Keep plugging away Brian!
Thanks Ayele – I will..finding a groove a little bit. trying to meet a like minded to build in HMC. they are called Kato….keep in touch and will talk soon.
And it looks good Brian! A tasty deal.
and that is Stan in the background…thanks for checking in Kate. Talk soon.
Did you get to see Hanoi Jane? How did you travel from China to Hanoi? Are you going to the southern part of Vietnam? Looks like a great lunch, what kind of beer? Sing-Sing? Don’t Pho-Pho around, get er done.
Hey, Hey , Hey….Captain Jim…great to hear from you my friend. No, Jane was busy…china to Hanoi is 3 hours…getting into the country is easy compared to the rings China makes you jump through. I was in Hanoi for 5 days, now Ho Ain…and today going to HMC (Saigon) 6 days. 98 F out there right now… HMC for adventure of course but also business. As it relates to Beer…I am drinking Tiger a lot and 333. good stuff. Look for upcoming post as I compare Vietnam vs. china in all things…Jim – thanks for message. Keep in touch. And remember…you are one of my key mentors…always will be. Thanks for eveything
Jim – also you can go to the web page…at http://www.thewanderingcapitalist.org and then look for the buttons on the left…and hit the itinerary button…from there goto the travel map. this will show where I have been and where is the next stop I am going to. FYI
Hi Brian! Really enjoying your blog! Glad to see your being frugal!
🙂 great to hear from you Alison…please keep in touch with me….hope everything is good
Good to hear from you Doobs – I was wondering what you were eating! What is the standard tip amount over there?
best I am being told…tipping is really not part of the deal. the suggestion is to tip enough to buy a cup of coffee…if they are good people, I am tipping 8.76%
