Sounds like you are pretty much on the mark, though of course there is so much more. They are very different places, wouldn't you say?

Not a hard predicament to arrive at.

How did you meet your Vietnamese g/f?

I believe you, sounds like you have found a genuine, legit woman there, well done.

But i also find it somewhat amusing that every guy with a Thai/Khmer/vietnamese g/f has a cover story ready for how they met. Wink

I know what you mean. All you would have to do is meet her to know shes not.....'one of those'.

There are plenty of young professional girls in Vietnam.....just like there are in Korea.......just they may not get paid as much......but doing the same kind of jobs......it may surprise some to know.... Rolling Eyes
