I take a tourist to the oldest coffee shop in Ho Chi Minh City | Saigon Sunday Sessions #12
Manage episode 460620323 series 2698055
"It seems like everyone has a bike... In Singapore, where you don't have that much traffic and everyone's in a car, they will honk at literally everything." - Charlotte
Visiting Cheo Leo—felt like stepping back in time—the oldest coffee shop in Saigon, reminded me of my first days in this city and how much I’ve come to love its energy and culture.
Navigating the crazy traffic, exploring the dense streets of District 4, and tasting that incredibly strong stocking coffee—it was like a time capsule of everything that makes Saigon unique.
It’s chaotic, vibrant, and beautiful all at once, and sharing that experience with Charlotte made it even more special.
