Hello! I am a petite Vietnamese girl with a big curiousity about the world. I am currently residing in France as a Master's student. Voila! Golden opportunity to roam around Europe woohoo!!

My academic program is heading to an end, which is a bit sad in some way yet I am all the more excited thinking about spending the summer exploring as much as I can before getting kicked back to Asia. Ouch! Meeting new people is part of the master plan. Whoever you are (as long as not psychopaths), I really love to meet you and learn about your country, your culture, your journeys, your dreams. I just love how people step into our lives and become parts in it.

UPDATE: I HAVE MOVED BACK TO SAIGON, VIETNAM

PHILOSOPHY

"Adventure is not about thrill seeking, it's about soul searching. Thrill seeking can be exhilarating, however soul searching will take you to even higher heights"

"If you follow all the rules, you will miss half the fun"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Seeing a shark for the first time while snorkeling in Tioman Island

- Sunset watching at The Twelve Apostles, Great Ocean Road, Oz

- Being randomly invited to join a street choir last Christmas

- Having steak tartare (raw beef), French cuisine and falling in love with it. I can't wait to try it again. It's as addictive as Japanese raw salmon.

- Dancing with a Bolivian street musician in Sydney.

- Watching breathtaking view of Twelve Apostles from above in a helicopter. It was simply amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to do French braid, fishtail braid on others, and on yourself. I'd love to learn how to do other beautiful styles too. I'm into hairstyling. Newbie, amateur, but really have a thing for it.
