An outgoing boy from Vietnam who is currently working in Istanbul, Turkey. People often describe me as an enthusiastic, fun and open person; and I always try to live up to that expectation (actually just being myself is enough, but most of the time I would put others' needs in front of mine). I am working for the government and will be in Turkey for atleast another 2 years, so I would like to enjoy my time here in the best way possible. My goals are: visit more countries, make more new friends and win in life :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've just been through one major change in my life which affected me negatively, so my dear friend suggested that I should try something new. I've read and heard about couchsurfing for a really long time, but I have never really thought about it until now. Hey, why not? A chance for me to meet new, exciting people and learn more about life. Happiness is all about receiving and sharing, and I'm more than happy to share with new people :D

Interests

I love movies, football and music. I actually write movie reviews as a part time job (you guys can try google Thinh Joey for my articles) and have been in the journalism field for nearly 4 years. In my freetime, I often go on Facebook to chat with my friends at home or watch some movies, listen to some nice music. If you like Friends (TV show), movies, US-UK music or Manchester United/Real Madrid, we can talk all day.
I also an amateur magician, I can show you some of my silly tricks if you want haha

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to music nowadays mostly to keep up with the modern times. Only a few artists that I like now (Bruno Mars, Snow Patrol, Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears ...) since most of my favorites are from the past. I grew up with The Beatles, ABBA ... music and others great artist so I prefer those kind of classic music.
Movies: Hmm too hard to choose since I've seen over 1200 movies (according to my IMDB rating history). My favorite are The Godfather 1-2, Shawshank Redemption, The Usual Suspects, Fight Club, Reservoir Dogs, The Dark Knight, Star Wars and ... Love Actually.
