In this special edition of LIVE! With Dr. Andre Jerry, Dr. Jerry reflects on his six-month journey living and working in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in his most candid episode to date. Broadcasting one final time from Vietnam before returning home to Puerto Rico, he shares an honest look at the realities of expat life beyond the travel vlogs and social media highlight reels.

From culture shock, apartment hunting, difficult landlords, and homesickness to teaching English abroad, making new friendships, and navigating life in a completely different culture, Dr. Jerry offers an unfiltered account of the experiences that shaped his time in Southeast Asia. Along the way, he explores Vietnam's rapid growth, its emphasis on education, and the lessons he learned about resilience, perspective, and adapting to life overseas.

Blending humor, storytelling, and thoughtful commentary, Part 1 is not a travel guide or a country review—it's one person's lived experience, shared honestly and without pretense. This episode concludes with a cliffhanger that sets the stage for Part 2, where Dr. Jerry dives deeper into the friendships, disappointments, and defining moments that ultimately influenced his decision to return home.

This isn't just a story about Vietnam...

It's a story about what happens when the honeymoon ends—and real life begins.
