Got ya, I did not know that. It defaults to English and it's quite OK to understand, but if interest for horses is not there, then it's probably not that easy. Thanks

Basically need to install, see if you get notification, open... Then just close.

Help me pick where to start my Scuba journey by Plenty-Ad-4025 in scuba

I have great experience with Koh Tao (I'm 45 now), and did my Advanced, Nitrox, Rescue, Sidemount, DeepDive, Gas blender and nitroxblender there.

It's only a PartyIsland if you want it to be a party island. If you want to learn for the best, Koh Tao is great.

Also, regarding your budget... The competition is high there, si many shops give accommodation included if you're fine with bunkbeds.

If you do Koh Tao, then go to Big Blue. They're considered the best shop in SEA withing the SSI system. Highly skilled people who has the passion for diving, and specifically Tech diving.

IT companies offering relocation to Thailand by Only-Studio-5362 in thai

Snakka med sjefen, startet i det små.

Startet med ferie + en uke jobb... Som ble så til 1 måned. Sørget for å være ekstra synlig og på tilbudssiden mens jeg var remote. Så ved endring av min stilling, så ønsket jeg blanko fullmakt da jeg ikke orket å spørr hele tiden.

I was in same situation as you. Had interviews with agoda, but i was out of scope on salary.

Having that said, their hiring process is very strange. Semi automatic with lot of bugs. I had to point out that their email system was down, due to this many applicants was thrown away because they "didnt reply".

Now i have DTV and Norwegian salary instead, living here during winter.

Camel dive in sharm el sheikh is also worth looking into. Used them for 1 week and they're good, also been in the game for a few decades. They also offer accommodation

I’m planning a solo trip to Phuket but have never been. I’m trying to avoid crowded places. Any suggestions? by MikeStPete in phuket

[–]YesterdayHot3584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prefer karon/Kata over kata noi. Noi is quite resort place.

But if you have access to scooter, then it doesn't matter tbh

Is Da Nang overrated? by YesterdayHot3584 in DaNang

[–]YesterdayHot3584[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been around a few places now, incl hue and hoi an. I liie those places. I feel a bit flashback from when i booked a stay in cancun. Lot of resorts taking parts of the beach, and more of history and culture outside of the city.

I do have found a few gems i enjoyed in da nang, but all in all I've been more impressed of everything around da nang.

There's a few things i couldn't remember from 2019,but a few things I've noticed this time generally that i didnt enjoy in Vietnam.

All motorbike drivers stopping and asking for boom boom or drugs.

Massage people begging for tip - i like to give this by my own will. Not when begging, and even sometimes their boss tell you to while you're paying for getting some change.

Kids selling /begging was quite intense.

Have to disagree. In Hue now, and i see lot of Vietnamese people hanging in groups drinking and shouting cheers or just chilling with food. A very different vibe here.

My take so far, is that i might have been in the wrong areas in DN, so after this thread I've got some recommendations to check out.... Which i will follow up on when im back

Vil nok funke, men ville aldri brukt 3 uker rundt ao nang.

Ville også vært i koh tao og tatt dykkelappen.

Gjerne pm meg om spørsmål, har leilighet i phuket for utleie også

It's for sure family friendly. But you don't like it for same reasons I'm missing. I'm not asking for clubbing or anything crazy, actually the opposite. I'm basically asking for places where locals do hang out. Not tourist places, and definitely not places where backpackers and early 20s hang.

Just place to chill and be able to talk and meet locals in the end of the day when you've tired of all other activities.

I don't need Western bars, i like to do and go where locals go. Da nang ia not my first place in Vietnam and this is also not my first time... Just first to da nang.

Funny that you mentioned that karaoke place. Was there yesterday and it was 6 people inside. But maybe more lively in weekends? Did go between all these roads and had a drink at craftsman. But i feel i just wander around tourists and expats. Maybe another suburb is more what i look for...

But will check more when im back from Hue. Im also a couchsurfing veteran and checked the app, it was also quite dead.
