Thats encouraging then if you had good experiences. Mine have been quite fleeting and all o/s. I met a few in Vietnam and none were what I'd call nice people. Perhaps the location played a part, it was a little place called Vung Tau which is down river from Ho Ch Minh. A place where the off shore oil workers came for their breaks for a few days. So maybe life on the rigs made them somewhat difficult to get along with.
