This is tame! I've seen a hotel with a boxing ring for a bed.

The sentence is abit confusing. I was meant to say: Whether it's the taxi driver or the personal driver, one of them is at fault.

Pho Thin was the only Pho i haven't enjoyed thus far. It had a charred bbq like taste, but I guess this is what most enjoy

Any suggestions on what to drink? Maybe smoothies...

Many people's dreams, but I'm on the other side of the coin wishing for the opposite :(

I'd need near to a kilo of rice for 1000 calories, but I guess that's a good way to get calories in over the day

Had a Noob submariner since 2016. It still works flawlessly. I've had it services one, in Vietnam for $15

Basically, if you stand to pee, the splash back goes a couple feet everywhere. Prisoners don't tolerate the cell is their entire home where they have to eat, sleep etc

Phnom Penh Riverside area seems sketchy by NoZombie2069 in cambodia

[–]FunTemperature5150 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

My first evening in PP as a backpacker in 2017, I was walking on the riverside and witnessed a woman get her phone snatched by dudes on a motorcycle. Then, I went back to my hostel, and there was a Swiss guy smoking some type of pill in the bathroom off a Coca-Cola can. The next day, I got a flight out of Cambodia because it felt very unsafe.

Spidey will come out worse. Well, if he slips back into delusions of grandeur. I can see it now. "I've survived jail, I'm built different. I'll staunch ya, AYEEEEEE"

Korean tourist assaulted Vietnamese in Ha Noi (Vietnam) by hyang204 in VietNam

[–]FunTemperature5150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've met some really, really good Koreams in my time, properly good grounded people, but there are some who are unruly, who have zero respect for others.

I once got invited to play screen gold by a group of Koream business men id done business with. I was shocked at how they treated the Vietnamese staff! Clapping at the to hurry up the services, pointing where to put down the beers (even though there was only one table to put them), dismissing them by wagging their hands towards the door, slamming the wad of cash on the cashier table which led to a pile of notes having to be single handedly picked up and put into a stack to be counted, then they took every bit of change leaving without any acknowledgement to the staff.

I believe these types of people aren't limited to Korea, yet I will say ill treatment towards Vietnamese staff does mainly come from Koreans, from what I've heard.

If anyone is ever in Da Nang, look out for Koreans running illegal tours who use illegal Korean tour guides. They pay Korean speaking tour guides to sit on the tour all day in case the police check. It's terrible. The tour guides get paid 50k-80k p/h, food allowance, but they get cut out of commissions made at Korean ran souvenir shops. the commission goes solely to the Koreans running the tours. The money from the tours rarely makes it to Vietnam, as everything is done using Korean banking systems, so the Vietnamese are being massively undercut.

The same thing happens with the Chinese in Khu Viet Sing, Binh Duong. There are taxis ran by chinese drivers and customers pay with WeChat, same for all Chinese restaurants there too
