ABOUT ME

I'm from (near) Chicago in the US. I ran track and field at University, and have done a few marathons. From the endless miles, I've seen some beautiful places, and enjoyed the simplicity of it all. You need so little to run but gain so much: shorts are a decency and shoes a luxury :). I studied in China and have slowly fading mandarin speaking skills. I also like reading, drinking tea, taking public bus (I LOVE THIS), and so on.

I'm traveling with my friend Kianna, she is from Venice Beach, LA. And studied in India for a semester. We met at a pig roast our senior year and decided to move to Hanoi.

PHILOSOPHY

bamboo and bicycles.

one more cup of coffee, tea, beer, or smiles for the road.
