ABOUT ME

This is me on the picture at my coffee shop ( Tiny Corner Cafe in Can Tho)...Check it out! :)
My name's Lan or you can call me Lani.
If you meet me in real life without knowing anything about me, you may think I used to live oversea or study aboard thanks to my gifted American accent.

Actually, I'm 100% Vietnamese and I'm originally from Can Tho City. I studied in Can Tho University, majoring English and now I'm a teacher teaching English at some private English Centers in town. Besides working as a teacher, I do marketing for FOB Skin Care Clinic, which is the finest clinic in Can Tho.

I assume myself as an innovator in this city. I love English and have been working hard to help young people somehow improve their English by applying a model from Italia called "English Speaking Happy Hour". I have a club of English language learners who are always willing to make friends with foreigners.

I was born in Can Tho City and have good knowledge about this region. I know all the interesting local places in Can Tho, varying from noodle-soup shops to traditional massage lounges, etc.

Also I'm also an English singer at Tiny Corner Cafe where I perform at weekends.

So just give me a call or email me. Whenever I'm available we can catch up, and I'm sure you'll get much more that what you read on Lonely Planet about this place.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to be someone else... just be yourself, follow your heart and never give up...
