"There's always something happening or something to see in Ho Chi Minh City that takes you by surprise. You don't know what you're going to see when you leave the apartment.

Also we feel safe in the city and we're able to drive around independently on our scooter - something that can't be said of every city in south east asia," remarked another expat who made the move to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
