Adaptors for both canon and fuji to fit nikon and m42 lenses.

You could probably sell the other shit and get a 16-35 f4 L IS but it's not essential. With the other two you will be covered for most eventualities. You could, in fact, sell the other shit and spend the money on beer and hookers
based on your list it looks like your more into gear than photos. try to pack some skill instead of a bunch of cameras.
No amount of gear is going to make a thai ladyboy look like a real woman.

Well the only reason people go to thailand is to film homemade kiddie porn, so take whatever camera would be least embarrassing as evidence in court.

Depends on what are you looking for.
Here in glorious 'Nam, In the middle, Phú Yên, Old town Hội An (Hải Vân pass is nearby) and Huế, Nha Trang. Services here are generally better than the north, and you will bump into more English speakers here.
If you are feeling a little adventurous head North and visit Mù Cang Chải, Hà Giang, Mã Pì Lèng, Lào Cai, it should be noted that it's mountainous in the north so unless you are good on a two-wheels I wouldnt recommend.
I can go into more details if anything catches your interest.
Pic related, some random snap when I was in Phú Yên

THIS.
four separate camera systems is ridiculously stupid. don't feel bad, i and probably everyone else has done this at one point starting out, just no one ever tries that a second time.
Seriously bring ONE lens ecosystem for a body you are comfortable with. spare body for it if you want to.
if you absolutely must take a 35mm, spend the $20 and get a canon body to match your dslr lenses. taking a fucking fm2 and separate lenses is inane in the extreme.
Last time i did anything like that, i carried a lens adapter that let me use my m mount lenses on both my mirrorless and film body and skipped the dslr altogether.
if you want to go dslr, so it, then take one and as few lenses as you need. like three, maybe.

Just the FM2, 50mm 1.4, and a dozen rolls of Portra 400

why do you own so much shit
You own all that gear and can't technically decide what to take?

7D, 24-70
Weather sealed, zoom for range, good enough for landscapes and portraits if you're creative and can solve problems. Heavy, but not too heavy. Heavier than the Fuji and the Nikon, but good weather sealing (it rains in Vietnam) and durability. (Insert Digital Rev abuse video)
