Music, Movies, and Books

Nah. Not really into books but I like to read all travel books like Lonely Planet

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would say, backpacking the whole Vietnam alone. Yes, I mean alone. Been thru lots of things. Scams, crowded train, bumpy roads and also get to know new friends around the world. It was the best backpacking journey I had so far.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share lots of my interests ranging from travel, business issues anything you can think off. That's what my friend told me, I'm a chameleon .

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am bad at arts and culinary. However, in return I would treat them a nice dinner as a token of appreciation. This is similar to my ethnicity practice as well. Besides, I would share my travel experiences and also different languages that my future hosts want to learn.

I can also do voluntary work in terms of using energy and effort but not monetary.
