Overview
About Me
After backpacking for 3 months, the longest I had alone...I am so in love in it. I constantly miss every moment that I had and I cant believe that I could survive alone for such a long period in the places where are foreign to me. But the little fear of something still there whenever I think about doing it again.
Still feeling like a turtle trapped in the well that you can only see that part of the sky when you look up. Therefore, would love to meet others from different places to get some inspirations, perspectives! Friends would often describe me as shy and quiet but if we have something in common..that would be different!
I also found out that I love to travel by myself as you can go on freely without any restrictions, enjoy being alone (enjoy companies as well sometimes), dont like a really well planned journey! It is hard to find someone who can clicks easily among friends..so by travelling alone, one might be surprised that find someone that can clicks really well! That's the fun of it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Staying up in the middle of the dark night waiting for the turtles to come up to the shore and lay their eggs, measuring them, counting the eggs while laying and watching them disappear into the sea after laying...
Spending my New Year's Eve being tossed around in different buses (from Vietnam to Laos) going through bumpy ride ever and in the dark chilling bus with strangers who don't speak english. Finally arrived my destinations after more than 30 hours with tiredness, cold, hunger in the dark.
