Vientiane - Post Report Question and Answers
Is this a good city for single people? For couples? For families? Why or why not?
Vientiane is great for couples and families but for single people who are looking to date it might be difficult. - Mar 2024
I would not recommend this post for anyone single. At least not if you are a woman, as most Lao men are intimidated by you, so you won't find dating there. Most foreign men are married, so the dating pool is limited to the backpacker. If you are a single man attracted to Asian women, you will not have a problem dating. As mentioned before, activities in the city revolve around going to cafes or bars, and that's about it. This post is great for families as it is safe, quiet and the international schools are good. So, it tends to attract more families with young children. - Mar 2023
It's probably better for families that single people. There's not a lot of nightlife (although plenty of it in nearby Thailand) and dating would be a challenge here. - Jun 2020
I think it's a good place for all as long as you don't mind living in a smaller city. - Oct 2018
This is a great place for all. - Jan 2014
