Just to introduce how it’s like to live in Nha Trang or just go there for holidays, it was like a year ago or so, i ought to go back there but i’m pretty busy with a project of mine right now…

Nha Trang is one of my favorite places, it’s very peaceful and calm there! (Ahhhh!)

Some facts about Nha Trang
(nä träng) , city (1989 est. pop. 263,100), E central S Vietnam, a commercial port on the South China Sea. It has an important fishing industry. It was the site of a major U.S. military base in the Vietnam War; the base extended 15 mi (24 km) south to the harbor of Cam Ranh Bay. The city has a commercial airport. The French developed Nha Trang as a resort, and it is still known for its beaches.

A view of the longest street of Nha Trang, the Tran Phu street where there is a loads of hotels to sleep in for just 5$ or 7$ per night (1 or 2 persons)!

Paradise huh? It looks so nice, damn i want to go back there…

You can also check out the waterfalls, just rent a motorbike (it costs 10$ - 15$ a day, may be less, you just have to negotiate big time), if you go there with a guide he will also show you the minorities that lives in the surroundings of Nha Trang.

Also you can see crocodiles, on the way to go back to Nha Trang, crocodiles farms! One of them was approaching me very silently, hopefully there are fences ;D

And here is how it’s like when you finish your day, you sit on the street with the locals and drink… TIGER BEER! By the way, there is a contest nowadays, new tiger constest where you can earn gold coins, it’s a game, just unplug the plastic shit inside the caps of any tiger bottles, if you drink tiger can you can know if you won by looking behind the lifter…

The day after i went fishing with some of my relatives with vietnamese on a boat (wow amazing!) I caught one fish while the vietnamese caught like 10 fishes by themselves… My friends caught 1 fish too, lol, it’s the tradition i guess.

They drove us to a fisher village, you have huge plateforms with seafoods (alive), you go to those plateforms on some sort of giant buoy, if you paddle in just direction the buoy turns on itself and it’s fun! Anyway…

I saw women carrying stones also…
