I learned to ride a motorbike for the first time in Vietnam. Sure, I thought it was a fairly insane proposition when I first started, but we rode from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City and necessity forced me to become comfortable with it quickly. It's one of the best experiences of my life. While I would caution anyone thinking of doing the same, I would never tell them it's impossible.
Well,
I traveled to Vietnam last year. I recognized Vietnam have great tourism potentiality. Beasides that there are a few not very good features such as: transportation situation, narrow road with a huge number of vehicle...

Very well said. Riding motorcycles in foreign countries can be some of the best adventures you will ever have and a great way to meet locals that you would not normally come in contact with. Learning to ride though is certainly take a huge chance.
"Overnight buses are a great way to cover long distances and save on accommodation costs, but make sure you book a top bunk as far as possible from the loo (normally situated near the back). Not to put too fine a point on it, a lot of buses don’t have working bathrooms and the further back you are, the worse the smell gets. Also, unless you have an iron bladder, don’t drink more than absolutely necessary, as rest stops seem to be purely at the whim of the driver and are skipped completely if the bus is running late. On one seven-hour bus trip – that ended up being a 16-hour voyage – I was very glad to have followed this tip. Not all of the other passengers had done so – enough said!"
Some of the worst advice on the internet! You fail to give the statistics of road deaths on VN highways, and the recent bus accidents reported in the VN press. Anyone considering long distance bus travel in VN should at least know the numbers.
