See you there - and thanks for organising the meetup Richard, great initiative.

As a suggestion, in future you might want to consider posting in the Expats in Ho Chi Minh Facebook group (facebook.com/groups/expatshcmc) as that is quite active.

Richard Loo

Thank you for your suggestion. But I am not really a fan of facebook.  ;) Just helping some fellow expats in this forum is enough for me. I think here need more support. Right guys?
Another reminder .....we will have a great time tomorrow. Dont miss it. I cant wait to get that crab noodle .....good n economy best  value for money! Trust me! Chao

Richard Loo

Friendly reminder to all expat....our meet up is today .sunday 2pm in mc donald,hcm. See previous forum above for details....yummy  for crab noodle! Cant wait. See u all

Richard Loo

Thank you to all who came for the the meetup. We get to know more friends. Special gratitude to Mei Teng, Stephanie, Irene, Hamo, Jonathan, Danny and Cang for making this a successful get together.  Hope everyone enjoyed the good tasty crab noodle. We will think of the next activity next month. Thanks for coming and nice to know you all. Keep in touch and take care

Hi Richard,

It was wonderful get together as the McD air condition really help on the very hot day.  The short walk to the crab noodle place is good planning too. Enjoy the crab soup, and all of us never would have found this place if not of you. Thanks.

Hi Xu,
Thanks for arranging the get together last evening at Novotel. I had a great time meeting new people and hope to become friends. As i mentioned to you for the next get together you may want to consider Cafe Central in D1, it has outdoor seating after 6pm and the price point is decent.
Below is the link. I look forward to seeing everyone again next time.

Since many 20Somethings expats dislike mingling with Over50's expats (and vice-versa) it might be a good idea to have 2 groups of Expats.  I'm going to investigate if there is any interest from the Over50's to meet up.

Hi, have you picked out a place to meet this Wednesday?

Richard Loo

hi..i am back to my country for a week and will be back on monday. Glad there are more people interested to meet up. From my understanding...there are not age gap between expat when meet up . Its just that some group just want to have drinking buddies, some cafe buddies some finding good meals together. But most would like to share experiences and learn from each other. It depands  what individual wants. There has been request to indulge in good street food so i may organized another soon. See you all soon

sensesofvietnam

I would be interested in good food. Let me know your plan when you come back.
