1
I've been living in Vietnam for over a year
2
and these are the five things that genuinely shocked me when I moved here.
3
The first thing is just how modern it feels.
4
It's way more modern than I expected.
5
The skyscrapers downtown, the wide streets and even with the crazy traffic it's still an amazing place to live.
6
The next thing we have to talk about is the traffic.
7
It looks like chaos, it seems like chaos when you're in it but it actually makes a lot of sense.
8
If you go with the flow when you're driving and just blend in,
9
use your horn so everybody knows where you are.
10
It's a lot easier than it seems
11
and also crossing the road again seems like chaos
12
if you stand at the side of the road nobody's going to stop for you you just have to walk
13
and people are very much aware of where you are
14
and they will avoid you you just have to be a little bit more careful
15
when it comes to the cars
16
but for the bikes especially it's actually really easy it's a
17
lot easier than it looks the first time i arrived in
18
vietnam i stood at the side of the road for five minutes like an idiot and thinking why is nobody's stopping.
19
They just don't do that here.
20
You just have to walk.
21
If it's super busy, just hold up your hand.
22
The third thing that really surprised me is the coffee culture in Vietnam.
23
Coffee here is not just you go in,
24
you grab a coffee, you sit down for 10 minutes and you go.
25
People sit down for hours.
26
They use the coffee shops as offices,
27
workplaces, as places to hang out with friends,
28
to go on a date.
29
Literally everything.
30
The houses in Vietnam are normally pretty small.
31
So coffee shops make sense.
32
They become second houses.
33
They become second office spaces for people.
34
People come, they relax,
35
they do some work for a few hours they hang out with friends for a few hours instead of going home.
36
There's AC, the drinks are affordable,
37
there's comfortable seating as well.
38
You'll see a lot of remote workers working in coffee shops,
39
using them as co-working spaces,
40
office spaces, everything that you can imagine.
41
So it's not just a case of going for a coffee,
42
it's a whole lifestyle.
43
Number four is it's not as cheap as people think.
44
Now yes, you can get food for a dollar,
45
but realistically not everybody's going to live live like that and want to live like that.
46
If you eat Western food,
47
you can spend more, up to 10, $15 for a meal.
48
The same goes with high-end Vietnamese food.
49
Rent, for example, can range from anywhere between 300 to $2,000 really,
50
if you want to go on the higher end of things.
51
Obviously, most local people, they rent.
52
Property prices, especially here in Saigon, are extremely expensive.
53
The same as in the West.
54
Most people rent, but the rent is very, very affordable.
55
You can spend anywhere from $300 to $1,000 realistically and still live a very, very comfortable lifestyle.
56
And along with the food and the rent,
57
of course, you've got things like going out.
58
If you want to go for a coffee or something like that.
59
For a local brand, you're going to spend $1, $1.50 on a coffee.
60
If you go to a street store,
61
you can get it for even cheaper.
62
And if you go to a higher-end coffee shop or a Western brand like Starbucks or something like that,
63
then yep, you're going to pay a little bit more.
64
In that range, you can expect to spend maybe $5, $6, even more.
65
I saw one coffee shop here,
66
and they charged $30 for a coffee.
67
If you're going out, you can get really good deals.
68
Beers cost genuinely between $0.50 and $1.
69
It's really not that expensive.
70
And then if you want cocktails and things like that as well,
71
yep, you're gonna pay a little bit more,
72
but absolutely not as much as you would pay back home
73
and the last thing to talk about is the intensity of the place personal space
74
that you get as well in the city especially in saigon
75
in other places in vietnam it's a little bit easier for example in dan ang it's fine
76
but in saigon especially the personal space that you have
77
in the traffic in markets even just walking down the street sometimes there's no personal space
78
people are everywhere you know there's 14 million people in this city
79
and a lot of people in Vietnam in general a lot of traffic a lot of noise
80
if that's something
81
that you're not used to then this place is gonna be
82
a massive shock on the other hand it's also something
83
that you get used to very very quickly I've been here for a year
84
and when I go back home to Europe it feels like silence
85
and it feels empty so it's something that you do get used to over time it It might feel,
86
I don't know, a little bit scary at the beginning,
87
a little bit daunting, a little bit overwhelming,
88
but after spending even a couple of days here,
89
it's something to get used to very quickly.
90
And it's not something that should put you off visiting Vietnam either.

  • 接着,暂停视频,每次只模仿一小段,可以是每个句子或每个短语。确保您能准确捕捉到语音的细微差异。

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
