Motorbikes are the main form of transport in Vietnam
But many people still go to work by motorbike and use their cars at weekends as motorbike is more convenient here.
From where we sit at the table we can see over the store counter and across the road into the living room of a neighbour. Vietnamese live life on the streets. Walk down any road and you will find someone eating - habitually squatting on the pavement - and someone sleeping, perhaps in a hammock strung across the walkway or reclining on a motorcycle.
Food is central to Vietnamese society and the mark of a good host is his ability to feed you well beyond your appetite's capacity.
Mr Ly is to prove himself a very good host, indeed, squeezing up to five meals a day into our short visit.
Cyclos are the most popular (and hair-raising) form of transport among travellers
