My fellow expats,

I am looking for inspiration for my list of 101 things to do before I leave Vietnam. At the time of writing, I am on 30.

Your ideas can be touching, crazy, stupid, expensive, free, heart warming or just get you arrested.

No idea is a bad idea, however if you like an idea, click the like button on that post. For this to work, it is important that you put one separate post for each idea.

Have fun!

You can list all in one and edit when you want.

Yes I do! Loads of time! 6 months in total without work and it's not because I have rich parents.

The reality is that I have the same 24 hours as you. The only difference is, that I choose to free up my time look for ways to live my life. Whereas you spend your time reading internet forums criticising other people for having to much time on their hands.

Live your life my friend! Your life is a journey. Don't waste it criticising other people for having to much time on their hands.

Peace.
