ABOUT ME

I was bornt in Hanoi, Vietnam. I lived in a House with my uncle, aunts, parents and my grandma.
My parents and I we moved to Germany when I was 8. I remembered it was in February 92 and it was the first time I saw snow. That was one of my most memorable moments.

I have been travelling for almost 2 years around the world. It was the greatest time ever. I met so many friends, get to know their cultures and it opened my mind about live.

Another big change was when I decided to adapt a vegan lifestyle. I lost weight, gained a lot of energy and from that moment sport became a big part in my life. I run, do AcroYoga, HIIT, rock climbing and Weight Lifting.

If I don't do sport I sew and try to veganise Vietnamese dishes.

I love sewing. One day my closet will only be filled of garment made by myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed overnight in over 100 metres hight treehouses in Bokeo, Laos and ziplined from one tree to another tree.

3 days motorbike trip from Nha Trang to Mui Ne. The first time I have ever riden a motorbike and I love it!

February 1992 in Munich: I came to Germany with my parents and it was the first time I saw snow. The whole city was covered with white clouds. I thought Heaven have fallen down. I was 8 at that time and used to live in a warm country, how could you not forget it.

Swimming at Anartica!!!

I met the nicest people when I was travelling around Iran for 3 weeks. I only wrote a post on CS that I would like to meet lokals. I was amaze how many response I got. I met Kosha and his lovely wife Elena when I was visiting Tehran. In the end I stayed at a girl's apartement with the most awesome name ^_^. She is a great artist and I hope to see her again in Germany in 2015.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could be your personal trainer ^_^. And if you haven't done sport before, trust me during my stay, I will make you sweat.

If you are into Weight Lifting or Body Building I would love to train along. It would be great to meet people who share the same passion and learn from each other.

I love to cook with my host. It would be great to meet another cook enthusiast during my travel.

A great day for me would be: Crazy sports during the day and in the evening cooking vegan meals!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to cook traditional vietnamese "Banh Gio", of course veganise. My friends love them :-)
I can teach you AcroYoga and the art of Therapeutic Flying

If you want to learn Weight Lifting, I'm your woman :-)
