Living Alone in Vietnam—How My Family Ended Up in Three Places

Why do I live alone in Đức Trọng, Vietnam, while my wife and sons live far away? In this personal story, I share the real reason I stay behind: our home, our small lighting shop, and the responsibilities that still need someone here. My wife and younger son live in Saigon, while our eldest son is studying in America. We are one family living in three different places, trying to build one future together. This is not a travel guide, and it is not a story about a broken family. It is my real life in Vietnam—the quiet mornings, feeding the chickens, taking care of the house, opening the shop, eating alone, calling my family, and keeping the lights on. ThiLiving is an English-language personal lifestyle vlog told from the perspective of a Vietnamese man. I share honest everyday life between the Central Highlands, Saigon, my family, my work, and an uncertain future.
