Today, I'm soaking up this tropical atmosphere at Casa Bay Beach in Da Nang, Vietnam.

Palm trees swaying, soft sand beneath your feet, ocean breezes, rustic beach huts, and a swing that practically begs you to sit down and forget your worries.

Sometimes travel isn't about rushing from one famous attraction to another.

It's about slowing down, smiling, and enjoying the simple pleasures of being somewhere beautiful.

Question: Would you rather spend your beach day swinging under the palms, swimming in the ocean, or relaxing with a tropical drink?

00:00Good morning, everybody. I should say good afternoon. Saturday, Saturday, Saturday here in the non-Vietnam.
00:07Doing my morning walk, oh, mid-brunch walk, basically. It's probably 11 a.m. Saturday, October.
00:16Taking my swing on. I didn't trust it. I didn't want this damn thing to break on me and I
00:21have to pay,
00:21so I was swinging nightly just to take it easy.
00:24Uh, those, uh, wooden fixtures you see with the chairs, you have to pay five bucks if you want to
00:31sit there to avoid the sun.
00:33But you can't run from the humidity. It's brutal. 80 to 90 percent.
00:38This sign, it says, uh, the non-beach, right? Very nice.
00:43The doorway to the ocean.
00:46Getting some more fixtures in, letting you guys see me, uh, doing my daily walk and play on the beach.
00:52Very nice. Nice and quiet. Uh, relaxing as you can possibly tell.
00:59Not very crowded. Off-season, as they say.
01:03There's my buddy who was trying to run me over on the beach.
01:07Hehehehe.
01:08When I first got there, you gotta watch out on the beach, man.
01:11Bikes, everything. Like, you gotta keep your head on a swivel in the street at on the beach.
01:16Everyone's taking surfing lessons. Not everyone. I'll take that back. I'm not taking surfing lessons.
01:22So a lot of people are.
01:24Uh, come out on the day. Waters, uh, they go out about 15, 20 feet.
01:29I don't know, meters.
01:31And, uh, practice, practice, practice.
01:33So I always say hello, get some more film.
01:37They always go, come on.
01:38What else? I'm like, uh, no.
01:40I've seen Jaws.
01:41Hehehehe.
01:42Right?
01:43I'll scuba dive, but I won't surf.
01:45I'll scuba.
01:46Yeah, so it's very nice.
01:47Price is serene, quiet.
01:50Water's very warm.
01:52Uh, tip your toes in it.
01:54I'm stepping in water.
01:55It's up to my knees.
01:57With the waves coming in, about to my knees.
02:01Walking out there, watching the surface again.
02:03But it's, uh, very relaxing.
02:05Uh, and the view is quiet, like I said.
02:08And always, we will continue to build.
