Ep.93 At the suggestion of our viewers, we traveled back to Vietnam to explore Hoi An. It's one of the most beautiful places we've visited, but there is more to it than what meets the eye. We take you to into some hidden alleyways, historical shops, provide tips on the best areas to stay, introduce you to amazing foods, and help you to see all facets of this city of lanterns.
