ABOUT ME
I'm a 23 year old girl, just graduated and decided to spend some time on volunteering/working while traveling abroad. At home, I'm totally a fun girl but when going out, I can see a lot of different me :)
anw, i guess we catch up at one point: being a nomadic junkie with a backpacker budget :)
PHILOSOPHY
"To travel is to live" - Hans Christian Andersen
The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do! - said Steve Jobs, and i'm one of them :)
We don't have to continue to live as we have lived yesterday. If we disconnect from this view, then thousand possibilities invite us to new living - Christian Morgenstern (cited by a CSer)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love to learn, share and be shared. I knew CS from A travel book written by a young girl who is traveling around the world with a backpacker budget.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I spent 2 weeks staying with an ethnic minority host in a mountainous area of Vietnam. I lived in a bamboo 2 floor house with the first one for raising buffalos and ducks while the second one for all living activities. This experience changed my life and stimulated me to go on travelling. I see the beauty in every landscape, scenery, local person or even in living daily activity of indigenous people.
1st time surfing was in Thailand which was cool.
Half-hosting people recently and it's so fun

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Witnessed 1,000 floating lanterns into the sky in Chiang Mai, Thailand and got blown away.
Teach, Learn, Share
Whenever you go on travel, you can take it easy and enjoy the traveling spirit but always have to be careful and prepared since any accident can happen at any time. People do not realize the serious consequence until they crush the accident. You can go out at mid-night but make sure to get along with some friends. You can go with strangers but make sure they have some trust in you. You can try some new adventurous sports but make sure too listen to your body. Things happen for a reason and do not follow your plans. Living experiences show you the ways to handle those challenges.
