Canadian Seafarer new to Saigon

Hi all,

Just introducing myself - I've just Just finished a trip all the way from Sapa down to here and I'm settled in a hotel in D1 temporarily. Looking for a shared apartment in D2 or D7, I like having the option of a bit of peace and quiet and a relatively short trip to the insanity of D1. Seems like my options for housing on Craigslist have slowed down since I first started looking in August, but I'm sure I'll find something nice.

I'm a 30 year old Canasian (Canadian with Asian parent) seafarer, so I will spend my 4 months/year on vacation here. The country seems incredible but now that I'm in HCM I'm a bit overwhelmed. On the upside people seem to think I'm vietnamese at a glance so I'm left alone or the most part.

I'm pretty quiet, like to try to stay fit, play video games, eat good food, and from time to time I like to drink my face off and party.

If there are any like minded people around that want to explore or hang out in the next few weeks message me! Cheers, -Tim
