Xin, Chao Da Nang 😃

Are you planning on living in Vietnam long-term but worried about navigating the process on your own? I’ve made a COMPLETE guide to moving to Da Nang with all the information you need to get settled in as quickly as possible with no inconveniences. I’ve put everything I’ve learned after more than 5 years living in Vietnam into this guide and I really think it will be helpful for a lot of people. This is the most detailed guide I’ve ever put together. Using my recommendations for finding an apartment, renting a motorbike, visa run agents, etc. is going to save you time and money. We will cover: ✅Intro to Vietnam (Regions, weather, language, currency, food) ✅Intro to Da Nang (Weather, Neighborhoods) ✅How to do a Visa run ✅Renting an apartment ✅Renting or Buying a Motorbike ✅Insurance/Medical/Dental ✅Bank accounts ✅Sim cards ✅Shopping/Groceries ✅+Bonus Custom Google maps with Local Recommendations ➡️For this weekend, the price of the guide will be the cheapest it will ever be. I want everyone that has been in the group a while a chance to get the complete guide for the best deal. After this weekend the price will go up. You can find the guide in the "Classroom" tab at the top of the page⬆️ I’m excited to hear your feedback!

@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).
