About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live like wind =)

ABOUT ME

Young, wild and free. Friendly, adventurous and crazy (in good way Lol)
I love traveling alone. It is great chance to discover everything as my way, know more about myself and make new friends all over the world.
I also often backpack with my team. These trips make me understand more about my friends, our friendship and importance of union.
I'm interested in photography. I'm not a photographer as some people think, I just love taking photos. I want to keep special moments and views forever, not only in my mind but also in my photos. I believe that nice photos can make people happy, so I hope my friends are happy with my photos.
I'm 24 years old, but most of friends think that I look like a 20-year old student =))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since 17 Jan 2013
I had interesting time with my local friend (also my host) during my backpacking trip in Malaysia. It is always great if you travel abroad alone and have a local friend to take you around, tell you about the traditions, custom, living style, etc. So I'm happy to become your host in Hanoi. Go with me and I will show you the truly beauty of Vietnam. Cheers!

It's been 5 years since I joined Couchsurfing. And it's always one of the best things I have ever experienced in my life.
My dream is backpacking around the world, but of course I can't effort to do that thing (money u know), and I also dont want to travel around the world by watching Discovery and Natgeo or check out travel blogs or read books. But I do travel through my foreign friends backpacking all over the world.
We share about the places we come, the food we try, the peple we meet and the crazy and adventurous things we do. The feeling when I say goodbye to a friend is also the feeling when I leave a place, a country.
If you want to be a CSer, you need to believe in good things in life. And when you become a CSer, you will receive great things than you expect.
I dont want to know about one place just by reading news and books, I want to discover everything by myself, on my own way, no expect no judge no prejudice. Same with people.
There are many CS friends I did not have photos with, mostly because we enjoyed talking with each other that we forgot to take photos :v, like Danny from Australia, Kie from Japan, Marta from Poland, etc. But I do remember every single CS friend I met. Each of them have their own stories that I can learn.
I just love CS, that's it :)
