About Me

CURRENT MISSION

work hard, play hard, eat harder

ABOUT ME

1. A person who was born and grew up in Saigon, Vietnam. I have moved to Turku, Finland since 8.2011 for studying.

2. Temperament: easy-going, open-minded, friendly, enthusiastic...Just meet me briefly and you'll know

3. If you send me a CS email under 5 sentences. I will not reply.

4. Love eating, travelling and making friends.

5. I'm not in Saigon now apparently, if you have any questions about the city or Vietnam in general. Don't hesitate to ask. About Turku, I can give you some basic guide.

Well, I guess that's general enough :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Recommended by a friend. I'd like to help travelers who want to visit Vietnam, especially Saigon. Honestly, I don't know many things concern about museums, or places for u to have a look in this city. I know where they are but I've never been those places. I'm more interested in food places and coffee shops. In general, I'm a food guide. :)

I hosted more than surfing. I took people around for sightseeing. The only time I have surfed so far is in New York city.
