I've been in HCMC for four weeks, will probably spend two more weeks here before going north (Danang or Hanoi). I've got a three month visa which I plan to use most of before moving on to the next country. I've enjoyed my stay in HCMC so far.
If anybody is up for a coffee or a meal or even a beer, just PM me. I'm staying in D1 not far from the big Starbucks. I like to meet new people, especially those who have been traveling for a while.
As for me, I'm early thirties, male, grew up in Australia, currently traveling the world, no intention to stop traveling any time soon. Kind of arrived in Vietnam by accident (I can explain later) and so far have been blown away by how cool this place is.
