About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to enjoy life despite everything else

ABOUT ME

My name is Linh (not Lyn, not Lihn, not any other spelling!). I am from Hanoi, Vietnam. I am proudly among the first few (well, about 20 or so), CSers in Hanoi. I used to live with my parents about 15 minutes by motorbike from downtown area but recently moved to an expat-denser area called Doi Nhan (closer to Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum). My neighborhood is actually awesome as you will be able to witness how locals earn a living. I have hosted several CS-ers so far and had a lot of fun with them. My favourite thing to do is to take friends around the city on my motorbikes!
***
I have just graduated from Trent University. I study international development and political economy, which leads to a lot of pessimism about the world. Yet by traveling, meeting and talking to people, I continually regain my trust and hope. I love hanging out with both people and nature, wherever it be.

PHILOSOPHY

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. (W.J.Bryan)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting someone is wonderful. Taking them around is even more fantastic. I have been actively involved with the project back to the time in Vietnam. I just moved to Canada half a year ago, and unfortunately, my family's English is not good enough to host more CS-ers. My door in Canada, however, is open to anybody who want to come visit. Email me through Couch-surfing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn more language and traditional knowledge. I can show you to do some knitting, crochet or fold paper. I'm seriously not good at teaching.
But sharing? For sure!
