Hi I'm Binh from Vietnam. I've been having a CS account for quite some time but I've never really got the chance to enjoy it. This summer I decided to travel alone for the first time and finally I can put my CS profile into good use

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing really changed my perception of the world. I study economics so something like CS is really intriguing, you know, the gift economy thingy. My CS hosts (and practically most of people I met during my trips) have been so amazingly kind and generous that I had to rethink my whole idea of 'trust'. That said, I am really enjoying every bit of the CS community and looking forward to enjoy it even more.

The last book I read and fell madly in love with is 100 years of solitude

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 4 years volunteering across Southeast Asia on both long and short term projects. I stopped because I realized what I was pursuing was a socially expensive wild goose chase, but still it was an eye-opener.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can proofread and edit your essays ;)

I'm not vegan/zero-waste/minimalist, but I do try to live a low-impact life. Still struggling to find compromise between what I can, should and want to do. There's a long way to go and I hope to learn more from everyone :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

- Food, I'm not confident in my cooking skills but I'll cook if you're willing to try. In any case I will contribute to the grocery, help you around in the kitchen and I will definitely clean the dishes.
- In-depth discussion as well as light-hearted gossips
- Snacks for the animal roommates if you have one ;)
