Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Being mindful when traveling!
ABOUT ME
I would describes myself as “somebody who is always a foreigner, always at home”. I was born in a tiny village in the outskirts of Hanoi, Vietnam about 20+ years ago.
My first trip abroad on my own was to Kenya few years ago and since then I have developed a true passion for traveling and exploring different cultures of the world.
Then I moved to London to study, then to work and also to enjoy living in a cosmopolitan city.
I have moved back to Vietnam 2 years ago and I am enjoying working as a freelance journalist.
After a few years focusing on working hard, now it is time for me to get back to the road again. I have luckily had amazing experience with Couch Surfing and I hope soon I will be able to host and surf again
PHILOSOPHY
Try to be humble
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My friend recommended CS when I was doing my exchange programme in Denmark.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
CS is something really new to me and I hope to meet lots of new people from here.
I also believe that when you meet a local person, you get the chance to know the place much better than just a tourist.
Travelling is not only about what you see, it is also about whom do u talk to, about meeting and sharing
