The Story of KT

NEW VIDEO 🇻🇳🌍

A lot of you know Peace Love Shu from his travels around the world.

I finally got a chance to sit down with him here in Vietnam and have a real conversation about his story.

We talked about leaving America, traveling the world, dating abroad, relationships, life in different countries and what he's learned along the way.

This wasn't just a Vietnam conversation. We got into what happens when you leave home young and start experiencing the world for yourself.

After you watch it, come back and tell me:

Could you see yourself leaving the US and building a life abroad? Where would you go?

The Story of KT

Today’s live is about the money side of moving to Vietnam.

A lot of people hear “Vietnam is cheap” and think that means they can just show up and figure it out.

That is a mistake.

Cheap living is not the same as a safe landing.

We’re going to talk about how much money you really need before moving to Vietnam, including first 30 days, temporary housing, apartment deposits, visa costs, food, Grab, SIM card, emergency fund, and the mistake money most people forget about.

If you are serious about moving to Vietnam, this live is for you.

The Story of KT

🇻🇳 We went about as far south as you can go on mainland Vietnam.

Ngan and I traveled through Cà Mau to Đất Mũi to see the southernmost mainland point of Vietnam for ourselves.

But the real question was:

Is it actually worth traveling all the way down there?

We made the trip so you can decide before you go.

The Story of KT

We kept seeing Mặn Mòi – Ben Thanh online, and with so many people recommending it, we finally decided to experience it for ourselves.

The restaurant is known for traditional Vietnamese food and has received thousands of Google reviews, so naturally our expectations were pretty high. But as we’ve learned, a popular restaurant and a great personal experience are not always the same thing.

For this meal, we tried several dishes together, including beef porridge, morning glory, and green papaya salad. We also looked at the atmosphere, the service, the portions, and whether the total price of 1,022,700 VND, around $39 USD, felt worth it.

What made the experience especially interesting was hearing both of our perspectives.

Ngan could look at the dishes through her Vietnamese background and familiarity with local flavors, while KT experienced the meal through his own taste and expectations. Sometimes we agree immediately, and sometimes we notice completely different things. That is part of what makes trying food together so much fun for us.

So, was this really one of the best restaurants we have tried in Ho Chi Minh City?
Was it worth the price?

And would we actually return?

You’ll have to watch to hear our final thoughts. 😄
🎥 Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/_O5fv3Bwjcw?si=IB9pZ...

After watching, come back and tell us:

Which dish looked the best to you?
Have you eaten at Mặn Mòi before?
And what restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City should we visit next?

We are always looking for places that give us a chance to enjoy good food, learn something new, and share both sides of our experience with you.

Thank you to everyone who has watched, subscribed, commented, and supported our new channel. Every view and every comment helps us continue building this journey together.

Two cultures. One marriage. Our life together. ❤️

The Story of KT

There was a point in my life when everything in the United States started to feel heavy.

I had built a business. I had responsibilities. I had a routine that looked normal from the outside.

But inside, I felt overwhelmed.

I was working, paying bills, handling problems, and constantly trying to keep everything moving. I was surviving, but I did not feel like I was really living.

So in 2018, I made a decision that changed my life.

I left San Diego.

I did not leave because I hated America. I left because I needed space to think, breathe, and figure out what I actually wanted my life to look like.

I traveled across the United States, then spent time living in the Netherlands, Greece, and Tunisia. Eventually, I arrived in Vietnam in early 2020.

I had no idea Vietnam would become home.

Almost seven years later, I have lived in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and rural Vietnam. I have worked here, built businesses here, learned from my mistakes, experienced the culture up close, met the woman who would become my wife, and got married here.

Vietnam became more than a place I moved to.

It became the place where I rebuilt my life.

Vietnam did not magically solve every problem, but leaving gave me another perspective.

It showed me that the life you are living right now is not always the only life available to you.

Sometimes you are not failing.

Sometimes you are simply in an environment that no longer fits who you are becoming.

That is one of the main reasons I started The Story of KT.

I know what it feels like to want a change but have no idea where to begin.

I know what it feels like to search online and find conflicting information about visas, housing, dating, travel, money, business, and daily life in another country.

And I know how expensive the wrong decision can become.

The Story of KT was created to help people explore another way with clearer information and realistic expectations.

Not everyone needs to leave the United States.

Not everyone should move to Vietnam.

But everyone deserves to know that they have options.

The new website brings everything together in one place, whether you are thinking about moving, traveling, dating, finding housing, or exploring business opportunities in Vietnam.

Start here:

thestoryofkt.com/start-here

My goal is simple.

Help people save time, avoid expensive mistakes, and make better decisions about the life they want to build.

Sometimes the first step is not having everything figured out.

Sometimes the first step is simply believing that another path is possible.

In our first video, we introduce ourselves and talk about:

How we met
Our first impressions of each other
When we knew the relationship was serious
Cultural differences in our marriage
Life together in Vietnam
Why we decided to start this channel

Watch our first video here:

The Story of KT

I’ve made some major improvements to The Story of KT website.

The goal was simple: make it easier for people to find the right information based on what they are actually trying to do in Vietnam.

Whether you are thinking about moving, traveling, dating, finding housing, or exploring business opportunities, the new Start Here page will point you in the right direction.

You do not need to search through dozens of pages or guess which guide or service is right for you.

Take a look and let me know which path fits you best.

I’ve been building a growing library of practical Vietnam guides for people who want clearer information before they move, travel, date, or build a life here.

Instead of sending people to different product pages, everything is now in one place.

Inside the store you’ll find:

• Vietnam relocation guides
• Visa guidance
• City and travel guides
• Dating guides
• Move planning resources

These are built from real experience living in Vietnam, not recycled travel-blog advice.

The Story of KT

Tomorrow’s live is going to be different.

The marriage video did way better than I expected, and the comments showed me that a lot of people had real questions.

So I’m doing a raw follow-up live.

Not a dating lesson.
Not a polished relationship talk.
Not a repeat of my dating series.

I’m going through questions, reactions, and comments from the video, and we’ll talk through it live.

We’ll talk about what changed after getting married, family, culture, building a real life in Vietnam, and anything you want to ask from the video.

Bring your questions to the chat.
