New from USA, looking to make friends/experience Hanoi

Post new topic

Ares703

Hi, my wife and I just relocated here in Hanoi, Vietnam. We are looking to make friends and explore Vietnam. We will be living here for 2 years (maybe longer) so we would like to make sincere friendship with locals and expats alike. We are looking for good spirited and humble people to go out with, for both the nightlife and daytime adventures.

Does anyone have any suggestions on some places to go in Hanoi to have a good time? Best restaurants, coffee shops, tour sites, etc? Or want to meet up and share any stories in person?

You may consider joining this group of volunteers in your free time.
Keep Hanoi Clean (Xanh lên)

They are a dedicated bunch of Vietnamese youths and expats, led by an energetic young American expat, James, trying their best to keep Hanoi clean and to promote environmental awareness.
This group has been active for over a year now. Their sincere efforts to keep the city clean have  been acknowledged and appreciated by the local govt. and the US embassy in Hanoi.

Getting involved in such meaningful social activities can give you an opportunity to connect with like minded folks around you.

Enjoy your stay in Hanoi. It's a four-season city of lakes.
