When I first started working out of Vung Tau, you could catch the Hydrafoil from Saigon to Vung Tau. What an amazing experience, 1 hour flight from BKK then a 1.5 hour boat ride down the river with beautiful views, bar on board for a few beers, then arriving in this trendy city. 

 

I've worked in dozens of countries but Vung Tau was my favorite location to work. Beautiful people and lots to see and do.

 

What a life, every month fly in and out.
