It's only a few weeks until the 1 year anniversary of my YouTube channel and 8 year anniversary with my wife Rea. It's been a fun year. I'm a little disappointed that I only have 122 subscribers. At this rate, I'll be 80 years old before I reach the magic 1000 number. But, I am having a blast shooting videos and giving people a view of life in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). Check out my other YouTube videos at https://www.youtube.com/c/TheTexPatinSaigon Thinking of Heading to SE Asia? I'm an expat living in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) Vietnam, Philippines, Thailand, and Indonesia. I'd like to share my experiences with you. My videos might help you have a better experience, anticipate what to expect or encourage you to get out of that Lazyboy and head this way. My videos are snippets of life, but I also am happy to discuss SE Asia with you by email. Email is welcomed at saigontexpat@gmail.com A lot of my video is shot within 5km of my house in the Tân Phú district of Ho Ci Minh City (Saigon). There is a lot of activity here. The videos are representative of everyday life and challenges in the city for retired expats. My goal is to help those looking for another life to see what it's like in this wonderful SE Asian country. My hope is that you will visit Vietnam and just maybe you will enjoy it as much as I do. Some of the videos are just for fun, some are about the differences in the cultures. I will also be adding some videos about my time in other SE Asian countries. I hope you SUBSCRIBE to my channel and enjoy the videos on my channel. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9euH9if7sZk

Covid-19 outbreak in the city ruined our plans for the Tet holiday. No events, bars open, or walking street activities. The city was quieter than usual this year. We rode around on our motorbike a few days, but even that got old. It was nice to drive on virtually empty streets instead of in the usual chaos here.
