What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Vietnam is generally quite comfortable. Vietnam features a vibrant culture, an affordable cost of living, and modern amenities like reliable high-speed internet and quality healthcare. Expats and digital nomads in particular are well-supported by a growing tech and entrepreneurial community, making it easy to connect and collaborate with like-minded individuals. The country’s dramatic landscapes, street food, and friendly locals make it an attractive destination for long-term expats and digital nomads," said another expat in Vietnam.
"Life of Vietnam is very young, vibrant. You will not find any negativity in like though it is their but they don't share personal problem with others. They love their family. Women are very hard working and run their family very smartly. Vietnamese females love their children very much and by all cost and sacrifice they let their children a happy life and good human being. They love foreigners and expect them to love Vietnam. They are very patriotic and love their culture and country. You will find all 365 days their national flag almost all houses.
