๐จ New video is LIVE. I sat down with Calvin from Sunshine Shoulders (first time in Vietnam) and we had an honest conversation about Ho Chi Minh City, the surprises, the people, the vibe, and how it compares to the Philippines.
Watch here:

Go show Calvin some love too, his channel is Sunshine Shoulders: youtube.com/@calroach1. Heโs got a huge travel catalog and real perspective.
Question for you, if you had to choose one for lifestyle in 2026, Vietnam or the Philippines, and why?

๐ My Vietnam Relocation Services (What I Do & How It Works)
I get messages every week asking:
โCan you help me move to Vietnam?โ
So let me clearly explain what I actually offer. I donโt sell a fantasy about living abroad.
I help you build a realistic plan so your first year in Vietnam actually works.
Because moving here isnโt difficultโฆ
doing it wrong is what becomes expensive, stressful, and sometimes forces people to leave early.
What I Help With:
My relocation support takes you from thinking about Vietnam โ successfully living in Vietnam
I guide you through:
โข Visa direction and long-stay strategy
โข Choosing the right city for your lifestyle and budget
โข Apartment hunting guidance
โข Real cost of living planning
โข Banking, SIM card, and daily setup essentials
โข Avoiding common expat mistakes
โข Trusted local service referrals
โข First-month survival plan
โข Long-term adjustment and expectations
This is personalized guidance, not generic YouTube advice.
How The Process Works:
Step 1 โ Consultation
We talk about your goals, income, timeline, and situation.
I determine if Vietnam realistically fits your life.
Step 2 โ Your Custom Plan
You receive a tailored relocation roadmap built around your circumstances.
Step 3 โ Guided Setup
I connect you to trusted local services and help you navigate your arrival so you donโt make beginner mistakes. Youโre not left alone after landing.
Important Expectations:
I am not an immigration officer and I donโt replace government agencies.
I guide, prepare, and connect you with reliable services so the process goes smoothly and you avoid costly errors.
Also, Vietnam is not for everyone.
If your income, expectations, or adaptability donโt match the reality here, I will tell you honestly before you move.
That honesty is why people succeed after arriving.
Who This Is For:
โ Remote workers
โ Retirees
โ Teachers
โ First-time expats
โ People serious about living abroad
Why I Do This:
I kept seeing people arrive excitedโฆ then leave frustrated a few months later.
Not because Vietnam failed them.
Because they came without a plan.
My goal is simple:
Make your first year stable, comfortable, and sustainable.

๐ป๐ณ BREAKING: Vietnam just dropped a new online ad rule thatโs blowing up the internet.
People keep saying โVietnam banned YouTube adsโ, thatโs not what happened. The real story is Vietnam is targeting the most annoying ad formats, the ones that block your screen and trap you, and setting a 5-second max before you can close certain video style ads, plus zero wait on static overlays.
I explain what the law actually says, what it applies to, and what changes next for platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook.
Watch here: https://youtu.be/vwTTDLlJz3Q?si=S5H5q...
Also, if youโre planning a move to Vietnam in 2026, grab my free Relocation Guide and book a 30-minute consult ($50) if you want a personal plan:

What do you think, should other countries copy Vietnamโs 5-second rule, or is it bad for creators?

Six principles of Maturing:
1. AVOID OVERSHARING
โข Not everyone needs to know everything about you.
โข Some may not have your best interests at heart.
2. SURROUND YOURSELF WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE
Better yourself by associating with those who inspire growth.
3. PRACTICE GRATITUDE AND MANAGE EXPECTATIONS
Finding peace through appreciation of life's small joys.
4. GIVE YOUR ALL AND TRUST THE JOURNEY
Hard work paves the way for success.
5. FOCUS ON SELF-CONTROL OVER EXTERNAL CONTROL
Strength lies in self-mastery, not domination over others.
6. MASTER YOUR REACTIONS
By controlling your responses, you retain your power.
