ABOUT ME

Hi there.
I am a Vietnamese student who doing my Master Degree in Helsinki, Finland. I want to spend my spare time in Europe to travel and explore different parts of the world.
Honestly, I am a bit shy and quiet when I meet someone for the first time. I guess one of the reasons is because of my culture, and living in Finland is a heaven for shy people like me. I am open minded, and very interested in cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Because I am not really good at making friend, I want to change that by joining CS to meet new friend in the world. Traveling is always one of my hobbies. The ideas of seeing new places, exploring new cultures, meeting new people, eating new foods never fail to amaze me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is the first time I join CS but I have some couch surfing experience before. Traveling in Europe is expensive, and I have hosted several friends of my friends as well as slept on my friends' friends' place. I enjoyed chatting over traveling experience over a coffee or a beer. I always tried my best to make my guest feeling as much comfortable as possible. And for me, I really hate the feeling that I causing inconvenient for my hosts, so I pay the utmost respect I can. Hospitality and respect are two values from my culture :).

Interests

Sure that I like traveling. I also like photography, football ( my fav team is Barca), tennis (FedEx is my idol), movies, music. Eating is also one of my hobbies, I like trying new dishes.
