12
Welcome to Vietnam.
13
It's my first time here and I figured, you know what?
14
Let's just start off here in front of the Ho Chi Minh statue.
15
I mean, how could I not, right?
16
I arrived here three hours ago, give or take.
17
So I figured in this vlog, I'm just gonna give you guys like my first raw impressions.
18
I legit came here from Sweden, right?
19
So I flew from Sweden to Bangkok and then to Ho Chi Minh City, right?
20
I haven't slept.
21
I pulled an all-nighter.
22
Kinda tired, but the excitement for being here kinda carries right now.
23
So let's just do this until I crash, right?
24
For my first time here, I want to try the local food, meet the people and get a real feel for Vietnam.
25
Seems pretty straightforward, right?
26
Well, Saigon had other plans.
27
I can't sit here?
28
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
29
No?
30
Yeah.
31
Yeah, I'm allowed.

But before things get way out of hand, let's just walk around and take this place in.
35
Okay, so first raw impressions of Ho Chi Minh.
36
I mean, this city is a lot, all right.
37
It reminds me of Bangkok.
38
It reminds me of Bangkok a lot.
39
I don't know the traffic here might be a bit more crazy.
40
I never thought I would say that but yeah, it is hectic to say the least.
41
Did I mention I haven't slept yet?
42
Anyways, I'm excited to be here, you know, because I feel like it's a nice switch up from Thailand you know, it's been there so much.
43
So this still feels very new and exciting for me, you know.
44
We're on a mission to find food.
45
I would love to find some banh mi, all right.
46
That is one of the two main dishes.
47
I know here it's banh mi and foe, so let's find either one of those.
48

87
Big question though, does it taste like meatball and was it spicy?
88
Kind of hit now, the spiciness.
89
Got some kick to it for sure.
90

I'm not here for you. For you.
117
This one was good as well.

119
I feel like văm is definitely gonna be a staple in my diet whilst I'm here in Vietnam, you know.
120
Plenty of protein, I like that.
121
Next up is Vem Thanh Market, Vietnam's most famous fake market.
122
But behind all the fake stuff, this place is also packed with Vietnamese food.
123
And that's what I'm here for.
124
Real quick, we're getting super close to 50k subscribers, a big goal of mine.
125
So if you're enjoying the video, make sure you subscribe.
126
I mean, obviously they have a bunch of like fake stuff, right?
127
But they also have a lot of food stalls.
128
So perhaps we can try some more food.
129
I'm not that hungry, but I could do it for the video, I'm not gonna lie.
130
I still need to try some pho.
131
Hi!

Oh my god.
208
This place is like over stimulation I would say.
209
It's kind of fun you know because when you're from a place where nothing happens as much I guess,
210
it's kind of nice to just flip everything.
211
Kind of chase the other side of the coin I guess.
212
You see something completely different.
213
It was delicious.

245
One is coming soon, so there you go.
246
There's another good reason to subscribe.
247
Oh man, now the real tiredness is starting to kick in.
248
I feel like I could have a coffee, but it's also a little bit late for that.
249
Like, Vietnam is huge for coffee.
250
But, I think we'll save that for tomorrow.
251
Yeah, sounds great to me.
252
And now, I want to see the modern part of Ho Chi Minh.
253
Like the Landmark 81 area, which is like the tallest building here.
254
Let's go.
255
Ugh, driver has arrived it says.
256
It's very easy when there's probably one million bikes in the city.
257
Where are you?
258
Honda Lead.
259
Let's find a Honda Lead.
260
Is it that guy maybe?
261
I don't know.
262
Ugh. And they call.
263
I can't answer.
264

Oh, Jesus Christ.
280
Maybe, yes, help.
281
Thank you, man.
282
Okay, enjoy your day.
283
Bye.
284
Oh man, I was so scared there to drop my phone or my mic that I'm recording on, right?
285
It was fast, bro!
286
And on the ride, I was trying to close the zipper.
287
It was open.
288
Anyways, we made it, right?
289
We're alive.
290
We're fine.
291
We didn't lose anything.
292
Here's the tallest building in Vietnam.
293
Right here, like this.
294
There we have it.
295
I think there should be some type of park in the nearby area.
296
I think, you know.
297
I guess there's only one way to find out.
298
But hey, I figured while we're here, let's check out the Vietnamese mall for the first time.
299
It feels very mixed, you know.
300
On one side you have like Uniqlo, we also have like Dior, Armani, you have cars, you know.
301
I guess there's something for everyone in here.
302
All right, Let's just not drag this whole mall part out.
303
I feel like when you've seen one mall, you've seen them all.
304
Knock my eye.
305
But it was fun to see.
306
That was inside the tallest building here in Vietnam.
307
I mean, around it, it's pretty cool to see all of these like, I don't know, apartments, I guess?
308
I say it's apartments.
309
It's definitely apartments.
310
Like what else would it be, you know?
311
That's pretty cool to live here.
312
I love tall buildings and just walking around like this little square here
313
Feels like you're in Hong Kong all of a sudden
314
I'm legit wondering how many traffic accidents there are here in Vietnam
315
because I'm gotten so comfortable with crossing now Like I'm checking my phone here for
316
The maps so I walk in the right direction and here we are.
317
Here's the park.
318
Oh my god Nice.
319
Let's check this out.
320
What a beautiful park man.
321
I mean just look at this.
322
Wow.
323
Check this out.
324
Kind of wasn't expecting this in Ho Chi Minh City, you know.
325
Whole field here like completely open, you know.
326
Nah, that is so nice.
327
People are having like picnics and stuff like that.
328
It's a place to come and hang out.
329
What do I see over there though?
330
Can you walk up in there?
331
That would be a crazy man.
332
I'm looking in the viewfinder now and wow, what is that sky bro?
333

353

440
The kebab was like slightly spicy, but not like overtill, right?
441
It's like a good level of spiciness, right?
442
For someone like me who's perhaps not the best with spicy food.
443
Would I recommend coming here?
444
100%.
445
Give it a go if you're in Vietnam, man.
446
Okay, so I just ordered a Grab bike.
447
No, I haven't learned anything from yesterday.
448
but I found this cool function with my phone because I get
449
so much criticism in my comment section whenever I travel to some place I don't know the language of
450
which is pretty much the entire world besides English speaking countries
451
and Sweden whatever I've done this okay look hello Xin chào
452
Xin chào that's how you say hello in Vietnamese isn't that like a League Legends character?
453

455
Okay cool.
456
How do you say thank you?
457
That's a good one as well.
458
Thank you.
459
Oh, kam on ban.
460
I got some practice to do but that is very solid if I have some conversations, if I, you know, struggle a bit.

494
I have no clue to be honest.
495

570
How do you think it's like, how's the language like overall?
571
Do people speak English here or what is it like?

574
Right.
575
They can be very conversational.
576
Right.
577
But because a lot of people, we have a lot of foreigners from the outside of the country.
578
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So a lot of people can, you know, if you ask them for their direction, I think a lot of people can do that.

Mmm.
920
Mmm, not fair.
921
It's kind of like juicy in a sense.
922
I don't know how to explain.
923
It's like some sauce on this very different pizza from anything
924
else i've had i think it's like this oh there's some banh mi sauce you have on
925
so i guess that's why it's called banh mi pizza

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
