Living on $3.40 a Day at 25 | My Real Life in VietNam

I'm 25, living in Ho Chi Minh City, about 500km from my hometown. By day I work as a frontend developer. By night, I pack orders for my small online shop — just a few orders a week, but every bit counts. In this video, I'll take you through one ordinary working day of my life: 🍳 Cooking my own breakfast and packing lunch for the office (my groceries today: just $0.80 — the pork and rice were sent from my hometown) 🛵 My 15km commute through Saigon traffic — almost 50 minutes each way 😴 Nap time on the office floor — yes, this is completely normal in Vietnam 📦 My second job after work: packing and shipping orders 🍗 A simple dinner with my girlfriend — crispy chicken rice for $1.40, with free iced tea Nothing fancy here. Just an honest look at how an ordinary young person lives, works, and saves in Vietnam — building a future one small step at a time. 💰 What I spent today: Vegetables for cooking: 20,000₫ (~$0.80) Tailor (fixing 2 pairs of pants): 30,000₫ (~$1.20) Chicken rice dinner: 35,000₫ (~$1.40) Total: ~$3.40 Side hustle earnings today: ~$2.40 🎙 Note: The voiceover in this video is created with AI assistance (my English isn't fluent enough yet to narrate naturally). Everything you see is 100% real, unscripted footage from my daily life. I hope one day I can speak to you in my own voice! If you enjoy quiet, real, everyday life in Vietnam — consider subscribing.
