Smoke the Bong, Coc Ly, Vietnam     

Throughout Vietnam, locals do the courtesy of offering you the same tobacco bong hits that they love to smoke. A very social event, they get a kick out of seeing foreigners give it a go. Just another way to break the ice and become closer to the people, as you set up for some serious nicotine dizziness and potential naussea. Their suggested remedy is another hit. Oftentimes in these festive markets or while having a beer in small spots where tourists are not, the bong comes out as token of friendship. That's a pile of strong local tobacco next to the candle. Just as other vendors have their goods set up and spread out for sale at their chosen corner of the market, this guy and his equivalents in other markets set up their bong station for patrons wanting a taste, or to buy some product for the home.
