Overview
About Me
I was born and grown up in the beautiful Vietnam! I believe that this life is a wonderful magic that I am so lucky to experience, so I like to live with this Earth in a sustainable way and with this life to the fullest. I like to share and learn the culture differences in a respectful way.
I am open-minded, friendly, reliable, and always eager to learn new things. I also like something creative, interesting, simply beautiful (like nature), and good laughs.
When I travel, I like walking around the places to sense the local life, watch (and talk to) the people and their daily life, admire the architecture, explore the hidden charms, in touch with the nature and ask many "whys/whats/hows" ;-) I really love nature and I am so curious about it :-), especially in the countryside.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I found CS myself on the way to touch the local people of the places that I will visit. I believe that local people hold the precious stories about their homeland (where they were born or where they love) and their lives on that land...and I want to talk to them. I am a part of my land and I carry a part of my land in my body also. I am very happy to share with you too. I posted some photos of Vietnam that I took so you can get a sense of how it is.
Although after joining I have not had chances to use it frequently, I have more chances to do it now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I joined a 300 km bicycle journey (with other 60 people) in 11 days to go to 6 poor hamlets in Mekong Delta, Vietnam.
There, we experienced the sun, rain, wind and a long ride full of sweat. There, we harvested the rice, cooked and stayed with the extremely friendly local people, even though they are poor. There, we enjoyed the truly pure beauty of the Mekong Delta with fruit orchards, rice fields, many rivers, canals and boats (typical in Mekong Delta). There, we organized playgrounds at noon for the poor children and simple musical concerns at night for the local people. There, I learnt that I am so lucky, I felt the compassion between humans, and I love this life more!
And many more journeys!
