Speaking of S.E. Asia, could've just hop over to Laos or Thailand??

I flew to Vietnam in search of its legendary parties. I found an empty nightclub, people getting high on balloons, and the saddest dance floor I've ever seen.

Saigon has a reputation for some of Asia's best nightlife. But on a Sunday night at Lush, it was empty, save for those looking for free laughing gas.

I flew to the largest city in Vietnam to experience a popular club called Lush.
It was a letdown: The small crowd mostly consisted of people looking to get high off free balloons.
