About Me

- A smiley face. Hopeless romantic. Sassy weirdo. Adventurous traveler. Food lover. Lame joker. Day dreamer. Party animal.
- "I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." - Audrey Hepburn

PHILOSOPHY

- "Trust me, you can dance." - Vodka
- "The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters." - Audrey Hepburn
- "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
- "When one door of happiness closes, another opens." - Helen Keller
- "I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." - Marilyn Monroe
- "For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again." - F. Scott Fitzgerald

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined CS years ago when I was living in Hanoi, Vietnam. The reason first and foremost was to practice my English, meet people from all over the world and learn about their stories. I was not a traveler back then. CS members inspired me to travel and that passion has been burning strong.

Thanks to CS I met many travelers visiting Hanoi and got so many positive experiences! Those people are just awesome! I'm so glad I discovered CS :)

I moved to Singapore since March 2015 and I've met fantastic CSers too!

Interests

- Cultural exchange is an amazing thing I've always wanted to do. I'm fascinated about humans. I enjoy meeting new people, sharing experiences and learning or trying something new. It's very interesting to know more about other cultures in the world and get to know different people from various countries. That's also the reason why I'm in love with traveling. Each time going to a new place is a whole new world open up to me. So far, I've been to 28 countries and counting. :)
- As a youngster, I also love having fun with my friends. Partying, clubbing... I also enjoy going out for movies or meals/drinks. Good music, good movies, and good food make me EXTREMELY happy.
