Prática de Shadowing: A Day in Ho Chi Minh City 🇻🇳 | Easy English Vlog - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

Welcome back to the daily vlog.

Today we're gonna go do some errands around Ho Chi Minh City.

Gonna go get some lunch right now first and then we're gonna go maybe check out some stores.

I want to go buy some things

and then we're gonna go to a really cool clothing store that has a bunch of Vietnamese fashion.

They're like an aggregator.

They have a bunch of different brands in one store.

So we're gonna go check that out today.

Okay this is what we're eating today.

It's a burger spot and I'm looking forward to it.

Pass the inside.

Okay here we got the burger.

Looks really good like in-and-out style burger.

Wow.

I finished at Bax Burger.

It was a really delicious burger.

I've been there before and I really enjoyed what they had there.

They have like in-and-out style burgers and those are some of my favorite.

So I had one of those.

I had a double patty, two patties in the burger.

The only downside I would say is

that they put a lot of lettuce on the burger and they don't give you that many fries.

I wish they gave you more fries but for the price

if you compare it to other burger places it's actually a lot cheaper.

Like for the full combo it was a 185 000 dong

which is like nine canadian dollars which is actually pretty good because i've seen

most other places charge that for just the hamburger so i got a combo came with the burger

some fries and a drink and it was really worth it i would recommend coming here it is in district

two in Ho Chi Minh City.

Okay I'm gonna make my way to the center to district one.

I want to go to Zara so I'm going to take the metro.

The metro will take me right to the center of district one

which is where the mall is that has the Zara inside.

Now as for the weather today it is hot but not that hot.

I think it's It's under 30 degrees today, which is nice because usually it's way over 30 degrees.

And there's a bit of a breeze.

I don't know if you can see my hair waving around.

But once I get to the metro, they'll have AC there on the train and the underground stations.

So that'll be a lot nicer.

Okay, so this is the station I am going to.

It is an above-ground station.

So there's two types of metro stations.

One's below ground and one's above ground.

So this is an above ground one.

It's actually a really big station.

Right now in Saigon there's only one line.

Line 1.

And it goes through four different districts.

District 1, Ben Tan.

District 2 and District 9.

It basically cuts the city from east to west going through the major districts.

So it is really convenient.

I've taken it before.

I've made a short form video on it if you want to see how exactly to take it.

But it is super simple to do

and this time I'm just gonna pay with my credit card that's the easiest way to do it

so this is my closest station number six Taodian.

I'm gonna climb these stairs up I think there's elevators in the center over there

that you can take if you cannot climb stairs

but I'm not gonna cross into the middle there oh

and I think there's actually escalators too in the middle

so maybe you have a lot of stuff with you you don't want to climb upstairs

or you physically can't then you can use the escalator

or the elevator but here we are it's very nice it's very new too

And the view is not too bad from here either.

We can see the tallest tower in Saigon.

Just over there.

It's a nice view.

Okay, here we go.

We are in here now.

Gate 2.

And I'm just going to tap my card.

Over here.

Easy.

Just as easy as that.

So here is the platform.

very quiet it is Monday about 2 p.m

so it's not going to be that busy but everything is very nice and very new

I like the station a lot

and over here we have the map of the metro system

so I said there was only one line you could see it there it's the line one

and I'm I'm going to be going from station 6 to I believe it's station 2 where the malls are.

But you can see here these are all the future lines they have planned.

I'm looking forward to that.

It'll be the best way to travel around Saigon when all these lines are complete.

It'll be like Tokyo or Seoul where the metro is the best way to get around the city.

Because it's a lot faster than taking a car or a bike.

Especially during rush hour.

So there's the other train.

That's going the opposite way I want to go.

My train is coming at 14.01 or 2.01.

It is 1.58 so three minutes and my train will be here.

And there it goes.

Everybody got off.

Some people got on and now there it goes.

Here comes my train.

They gave me a good honk.

Let's get on the train.

Okay we just got off the train.

100

We're now in an underground station so this is different from the one we got on.

101

This one is underneath the ground and that makes sense because we're in the center of district 1 right now.

102

And there's too many buildings on top of us to build an above ground one.

103

We're at the Opera House exit and we're gonna just go and walk to the mall.

104

It's not that far.

105

Maybe one or two blocks from here.

106

So this is the layout for the underground.

107

I believe we came from this train because the arrow was pointing that way.

108

We went up one escalator, came out the gate and now I'm gonna go out like that.

109

Okay now I'm going to take the escalator out.

110

I had to go through a little underground mall that was connected to the metro station but it is nice here.

111

I'm pretty sure this mall is underneath.

112

Five star hotel at the center of Saigon.

113

I can't remember what it's called.

114

If i see it outside i'll show you guys but But at the fashion stores out here, Dior and stuff.

115

It's not really what I'm into, but a lot of people like that kind of stuff.

116

Also, it looks like it just rained.

117

The ground is wet.

118

It's raining a little bit, so I'm going to stay over here.

119

It was not raining when I hopped on the train, so that was really fast.

120

Quick little burst of rain.

121

I am crossing now.

122

I believe this is all one way.

123

I do not want to get hit.

124

People here drive like crazy.

125

So that is the mall I want to go to.

126

The Vincom Center.

127

And that's the Zara I want to go to right there.

128

Now this wind is insane.

129

I'm exposing my forehead here.

130

Oh shit.

131

The brain just came down super hard.

132

I'm glad my camera is like kind of waterproof.

133

Okay I'm in the Zara now.

134

I'm looking to get cologne here.

135

I don't know if they have the same one I bought here before but we're gonna go take a look.

136

If they don't then we're gonna have to search for another one.

137

I'm gonna stay in here until it stops raining but you can see over here.

138

It's coming down like crazy.

139

Look at this.

140

It just started when I was crossing into the doorway.

141

Okay, so just made it back home.

142

Today was kind of eventful.

143

I started off by getting some lunch at around 1.30ish.

144

I had that really good burger you saw.

145

Definitely recommended.

146

Then after that I took the metro to downtown where I went to Zara.

147

And that's where it started raining.

148

So I showed you the rain there just when it started.

149

I was just hiding in that mall.

150

I didn't really buy anything from Zara because they didn't really have the cologne that I was looking for which is fine.

151

I could always go and look another time or

152

if I have more time I'll go and smell the colognes and see which one I like.

153

I went around I went to H&M as well walked around there and then I went to the basement.

154

So in that basement they have an area called the New Playground

155

which is like two floors the two bottom floors of the mall

156

that are dedicated just to Vietnamese fashion

157

so I bought one item it is for this camera

158

and they give me a nice bag here

159

which is really cool nice little bag and it is a body strap

160

so I wanted something

161

that I can keep this camera on my body instead of having to put it in my bag

162

so this is what I got it was about 185,000 dong

163

which is about nine dollars and fifty cents Canadian

164

which I think is a really good price for that

165

and it's a Vietnamese brand so I'm supporting Vietnamese company

166

which is nice to do so after that it was still raining

167

but I decided to get a car to a store

168

that has a bunch of different Vietnamese clothing brands inside of it this is our next stop the clothing store, 11 garmentry.

169

I had to take a car here because it was raining like crazy but it just dried up now.

170

Holy the size of this place.

171

Looking forward to this shop.

172

I bought a grab car because it was still raining

173

and I didn't want to take a bike so the car was maybe 25-30 minutes to get there and I got there.

174

I looked around.

175

It was nice there's a really big store they had a

176

lot of brands maybe I'd say around 50 different Vietnamese brands which is really cool to see.

177

The only place I've seen that before is in like Seoul in Korea they have Musinsa

178

which is the exact same they have all the Korean brands inside one single store

179

and you don't have to jump around the city to go find them and it's good for the companies, it's good for the brands and it's good for the people

180

that want to come here and shop especially tourists that are not here for a very long time.

181

So I looked around there and I didn't really find anything I like

182

or let me rephrase I didn't find anything that would fit me very well because the sizing is a little off.

183

I'm usually an extra large in Canada

184

but here extra large doesn't really translate the same unless you're shopping at a global company like Zara or Uniqlo or Muji.

185

So if I'm gonna get clothes most likely it'd be from those global companies

186

because I can actually find stuff that fits me but maybe

187

if I lose a little bit of weight then I'll be

188

able to fit in some of those really cool really unique Vietnamese clothing brands.

189

So I like how they look.

190

They have some really cool styles and I like dark colors

191

and they really like dark color is here as well

192

so i do want to wear them in the future after looking around a bit my brother was still shopping

193

and i decided i'm just gonna head back

194

because it's getting late it's already five o'clock right now

195

so i left about 4 30 ish so i wanted to get back

196

and the ride back was a little bit busy you can see here super busy It's getting close to rush hour.

197

Five o'clock and beyond is rush hours but I ended up making it here pretty quick.

198

I got here pretty uneventfully except for the last stretch there was a road we turned on and it was completely flooded.

199

You could see here in the video.

200

The deepest parts maybe a foot and a half of water maybe two feet

201

and I felt my shoe getting wet from the water coming up

202

but it was all right like I was almost at home

203

so it didn't really matter I was gonna take my shoes off anyway

204

but it was kind of funny to see how much water came down in

205

that short amount of time and I don't know how great the drainage is in

206

that area but we'll see if that's gone in the next couple days

207

or maybe now is really the start of the rainy season

208

so we're gonna be seeing a little more of that

209

which is all right I mean at least It's gonna be a little cooler outside.

210

It's not gonna be super hot anymore Anyway, that was my day today.

211

I had a good time today.

212

I had some good food I did some good shopping.

213

I've been working a lot this last week.

214

So it was nice to get out

215

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
