I Left the U.S. After Retiring Early… Now I Live in Vietnam (Da Nang House Hunting Tour) 🇻🇳

I’m back in Da Nang, Vietnam, house hunting for a long-term home after taking time to recover from knee surgery. In this video, we're stepping away from the typical budget studio apartments and exploring what a $1,300/month budget can get you in the upscale rental market. Join me on a candid evening tour through three distinct multi-story homes near the new Aeon Mall and the Thanh Khe district. We’ll look at open-concept layouts, modern kitchens, bedroom aesthetics, and practical details, like staircase designs and neighborhood noise levels at night, to find the right fit for my style of slow travel living. 📍 What We Tour in This Video: 00:00 - Catching up & Welcome back to Da Nang 00:35 - Exploring Aeon Mall & Setting the Housing Budget 05:35 - House 1: Modern 3-Story Design & Layout 11:00 - House 2: 4-Bedroom Home & Balcony Views 16:40 - House 3: The 2-Story Contender (Best of Both Worlds) 22:30 - Final Verdict: Which Home Did I Choose? 27:00 - Why Scouting Neighborhoods at Night Matters 29:20 - Living in Thanh Khe vs. My Khe Beach & Expat Life If you’re a traveler, remote worker, or military veteran curious about transitioning to life in Southeast Asia, subscribe to Nomad Day for honest slow-travel guides and city breakdowns. #DaNang #Vietnam #HouseHunting #ExpatLife #SlowTravel #NomadDay New to the channel? 🌍 Welcome to Nomad Day.
