[68-year-old Vung Tau native who's been living in Denmark since 1979]

69-year-old waiter at Phố Huế Café. He's the owner's brother, so doesn't really have to do this. He owns farm land.

$10 room at Hưng Chiêu Phát. Sign at desk listed 600K [$23.65], but the taxi driver who drove me here said, "He only needs a room for one person," so they reduced it by half. I knocked it down further by saying, "How much for four nights?" There are way too many hotels in Hà Tiên, so $10 for my room is about right. It's a bit run down. Its window faces a wall a yard away, with garbage in between. There's air conditioning which I don't really need and a TV I don't watch. There's a fridge but no electric kettle.

Sign, "HELP / DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES / I'M BLIND." He's also selling a few lottery tickets.

Apple snails for 70K [$2.76] and water for 5K [20 cents].
