Hi everybody. I'm new here. 
I work for a Swiss co. in Malaysia, and will likely be posted to Saigon by Sep. / Oct. this year. Wish this had happened 10 years ago, as being 43 years old now, I think my sense of adventure has started to wane. 
Though I'm quite well-travelled & highly adaptable to most foreign environment, I've not actually lived abroad often, apart from 3 years in Australia as a student. Living & working in Saigon will be entirely different, for sure.
Anyway, you'll be hearing more from me over the next few months, while I make my preparations to relocate.
Cheers 
G'day everyone ... newbie here :-)
