ENFP. I was born and raised in Vietnam until 12 years old; now live in the US, will be working in Japan in August 2017. I'd love to share my experiences living in multiple countries.

I'm very curious and love learning about other cultures. Show me your world! I'm also interested in using interactive technology to promote diversity and empathy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From my past experience, I enjoy connecting with the locals to better understand other cultures and languages; many people recommended Couchsurfing.

I find lots of joy in cultural-exchange activities. I will be living & working in Japan soon, so I am not able to host yet. But once I'm all settled down, I'd love to show you my new town :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Using the Tim Ferris's (author of '4-hours Work Week') advises, I negotiated with my boss to temporarily work remote while traveling East Asia for 2.5 months. It was life changing!!
