Looking to meet people in HCMC

Hi All,

Just wanted to say Hi to everyone from a Newbie.  I guess I can be classified as Vietkieu.  I'm not living in HCMC but recently I find myself there almost every week. 

Too many meetings in the same offices and cafes, so I'm looking to meet people who are interested in checking out new places, food, cafes, shopping, activities, clubs, anything I don't need to wear a suit for!  Wouldn't mind increasing my vietnamese vocab as well if anyone is interested in language exchange.

I love traveling and being adventurous so I'm open to gatherings whether they are out on the street on plastic furniture or in a swanky place like the Hyatt!

Send me a message and we'll get together for a few drinks and laughs.

Hi hdang,

Hi.Dang. Are you from Germany?

hdang

Not Germany.  I'm from Canada but now living in Phnom Penh.  Hope to visit germany soon though!

If you would like a bowl of Bun Rieu and you do not mind sitting in plastic chair, check out the corner restaurant located at Ben Thanh Market's East gate.  Do not forget to order a sugar cane drink to go with your Bun Rieu. I am from Toronto Canada, which part of the Canada are you from?

hdang

A fellow Torontonian!  Hello, thanks for the tip for Bun Rieu, will give it a shot.  Send me a PM if you're ever planning on grabbing a bowl.

Thanks for the invite.  I am also a newbie on this forum.  How do I PM you?  I am thinking about starting a new thread on how to ride a motorcycle.  I hope you can contribute your two cents to the topic.

Just click on my name to bring up my profile and then click the send message link.

Are you thinking of riding in HCMC?  I usually ride when I'm in smaller cities, but try to avoid it in HCMC.  I'll save it for your new thread though.

Hello there bun rieu people! I love that place! Just had some yesterday. Let me know when you guys are grabbing a bowl or two. I'd love to meet up! =)

I'm back again for the next 5 days with only 1 real meeting for work :)   

If anyone is free and has nothing to do please send me a pm!
