I'm 72 and have a pacemaker, in great health with no other problems. Been living in Mexico for quit a few years, possibility time for a change. I was there in the mid sixties, I liked the country and the people. Seems like if your over seventy forget health insurance at a reasonable price. Hopefully Da Nang in June of this year.
Trying to find more info without much success.
Been to Da Nang once before for a few weeks, back then we called it China Beach.

The Vietnamese call it "Bãi biển Mỹ Khê" or My Khe Beach...

You may notice a few changes in Danang.

I know that is not called China Beach now. That is what we called back then, didn't speak a lot of Vietnamese. I was trying to find info about insurance in Vietnam. I work for Cruz Roja Mexicana ( for those who don't speak Spanish, it's The Mexican Red Cross) and my medical costs along with life insurance are covered.
