@Travis Carrasquillo - I follow multiple forums on travel. One forum a man illustrates his spider bite encounters in Vietnam. Are spiders an issue in Vietnam? Are there pro-active measures to lessen the encounter? I saw you mention the multiple encounters with the tiger mosquito (dengue).

I had the opportunity to volunteer at Hoa Mai Orphanage this morning. They have a garden project that is underway. They are propagating bougainvillea to sell during the Christmas season. Today was all manual labor and I LOVED it. They are a great organization that is run on a shoestring budget. They have about 47 children ranging in age between 3 and 17. Below is a link to their website. I will be going a couple times a week to help out in anyway possible. Send me a PM if you’re interested in volunteering and I will message you the contact details for their Director. https://hoamaiorphanage.com/ Link: The journey of an orphan girl to become the Director of an orphanage… https://cadn.com.vn/hanh-trinh-cua-co-be-mo-coi-tro-thanh-giam-doc-trung-tam-nuoi-day-tre-mo-coi-post304695.html

This group has already grown to over 200 members! One of the coolest parts of international travel is all of the interesting people from around the world that have a chance to connect. I'm curious where everyone is from? Hope to get a chance to meet as many of you as possible! Feel free to add a GIF that represents your country 😂

So the night started pretty harmless. A little yoga. Then a swim. Got home and changed for dinner. My go to restaurant was closed but they invited me to drinks and some fingers food. Feeling welcome. The wife goes home with their daughter and now I’m out with husband and two of his friends. We are not at a notorious tourist club on beach road. Expensive drinks. Loud club music. And sexy bar girls. In a VIP booth… will be interesting how the night ends $$$ 🤔 I will update tomorrow. 🥳

Hi Travis and anyone else who can help. I take a specific SSRI (20 years now and it keeps me on an even keel - don’t judge please). There are restrictions on bringing in more than 10 days supply even with a letter from my doctor. How can I get a prescription from a doctor in Da Nang and get the supply I need?
