About Me

I am a curious student who wants to explore the world around me. I love meeting new people, making friends and learning from their best. Besides, I am a voracious reader, especially in the field of history and classics. In my free time, in addition to reading, I also try making new food (which usually takes some time).

I am currently studying undergraduate program at , MN. My major is computer science. I hope to create something that both raises technological and social benefits to people as I love both history and technology.

This is the first time I have been in the US so I am pretty curious to explore American cultures and beauties (both metropolis and natural). I have seen a remarkable difference between my birth country and the US, mostly in terms of culture. This difference drives me eager to learn more about this country.

I have had some couch-surfing experience back in Vietnam but doing this in the US is a whole new experience for me and I love it !.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is the first time I have joined couch surfing because I would like to find a host that can let me stay in for a few days during my travel at a low price (I am an international student and I don't have lots of money to pay hotel fee and food by myself). Furthermore, I am very interested in traveling with a big group because that would not satisfy my adventure spirit even that would save me money.

I am a very calm and easy going person (partly because of my Asian Buddhism identity). I love cooking, helping others, and making friends with people who are different from me.

I am currently planning on my first couchsurfing in Minneapolis and I am currently looking for a host who is able to let me stay in his house for a few days. I would live to show him or her my cooking skills and my country's culture !
