I used to be a huge optimist, and I am telling you that I am an optimist at the present. Its level went down for some reasons. I will tell you more about me if some of you see me in person. However, I am confident to say that I am very out-going and energetic ( I am still young, that's why :)). Sometimes I am being talkative; sometime not (I truly don't know the reason). I mean, I can be very quite at the beginning, then I will be very open and talk a lot if I feel comfortable and closer to someone. I love being friends with people, sharing our cultures and experiences. Traveling is my interest; but unfortunately I did not have so many chances to travel out of country. It is hard to explain, but I think I am kind of "weird and funny" somehow (I will let you judge whether it is in positive/negative way). I always think that I should be independent and that's who I am. I truly believe that the keys to success are passion determination and self-motivation (I lost in them sometimes). Some parts of me is beyond the words to be described :)))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was a English-leaning student in Vietnam 5 years ago when I first joined in couchsurfing community. I had a ton of interesting and fun experiences with the other couchsurfers who visited Vietnam at that time. Being a local tour guide, I was so happy to introduce our culture, our tradition, and especially our sophisticated cuisine to over-the-world friends. In 2012, I moved to USA. Being overwhelmed and struggled to well adapt into new culture, unfortunately I did not think about how wonderful it would have been if I made connection with friends-to-be in Florida. Suddenly, not so long ago it just came up to my mind that I should contact with couchsurfers in Miami; and getting to know more about America. Therefore here I am. Since then, I have been having a very good time being with the other couch-surfers. Of course, I am looking forward to making friends with those who are interested in traveling and open-minded to share their hobbies and stories of life.

Interests

I love challenges, love being around with people of diverse culture backgrounds. And a lot more of them I am trying to figure out....

• culture
• folklore
• traveling
• teaching
• freelancing
• languages
• nursing
• tourism

Music, Movies, and Books

I love books, movies and music certainly. However, honestly I don't really have a good background about American music and about any of the other music bands. I am trying to expand my music knowledge :). I often listen to pop music, and I am excited to watch horror and adventurous movies though. I am specifically fond of detective Japanese movie; unfortunately I got no time to look at some lately.
I love being in the library due to a huge amount of books there LOL, and I often read sci-fi novels. I am so fond of books that I used to look for the English-version of novels and spent days and night reading them online. I am trying to finish the third book in the Tunnel series of Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams; hopefully I can find some spare times. Generally speaking, it is hard to say which book is my favorite, because I love all kinds of books :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many amazing things that I hardly remember all of them have happened; and I am willing to see more and more in the future.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an English teacher and a freelance English-Vietnamese interpreter. I am going to college for Nursing.
I want to learn different languages, and Spanish is my first target for now. I love languages, I used to learn French and Japanese and would like to review them again. Language is the cultural bridge among people; so there is no reason for me to stopping learning new languages :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

"Love all, trust a few and be wrong to none" (William Shakespeare) is my philosophy of life.
"Be yourself and be brave to conquer the world" is what should be done, at least for myself I think :)

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States, Viet Nam
