---2024 update---
I've moved back to Hanoi, Vietnam recently. So if you plan to visit Bat Trang Pottery Village and have a calm and pleasant bike ride or a walk in Ecopark Township, drop me a message.

"Every person I meet in life is like a leaf that enriches my tree."
"Every person I meet has a lesson to teach, a story to tell, and a dream to share. "
I'm ready for all of that.

CURRENT MISSION

- Eat well. Work hard. Live truly. Travel often.
- Be Crazy. Be Free. Be kind.

ABOUT ME
Me? You can call me Xu, or Surie.
(In case you want to know more about me), this is my social account:

What can I say about myself?

🇻🇳 I'm Vietnamese. I speak Vietnamese, Chinese, and English. I’m learning Italian.

🔑 I consider my values are: Freedom (the most important), Experience (to try new things), and Balance (The key to everything).

✈️I move from here to there to see different lives.
I love to chase the sunset, be in nature, and visit the local markets, supermarkets, coffee shops, and vintage/thrift shops... when I travel.

🔞For me Couchsurfing is NOT a dating site.
Thank you but I don’t do clubbing or drinking.

💪 I love to change, not only the place but also to challenge myself to discover new abilities or to find a better version of myself.

🦋 I was diagnosed with Lupus in 2017- an autoimmune disease. Because of that, I have an unusual sensitivity to sunlight. But I’m doing OK.

💻 I work online.

🌍 Mini-lives: It's like living my normal life, just in different cities.

PHILOSOPHY

Attitude Is Everything.
Be kind, everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I know about CS in 2012 from a book that I read, I got an account right away after that but didn't active that time until I had my own room :P
For the people that I meet from CS or when I travel, I appreciate your existence in my life.

Zainteresowania

I like outdoor activities, and I loved cycling the most. Love the “freedom” it brings to me. Feel the wind on my face and in my hair.
Oh yaa, I love swimming and hiking too, free of any worries.
Spend time in your favorite coffee shop every Saturday morning.

Muzyka, filmy i książki

Music: It really depends on my mood and what I'm doing—morning coffee, working, being outdoors, or winding down in the evening. Each moment calls for its own soundtrack.

Movies: I enjoy documentaries, adventures, and a good romance now and then.

Books: I read both fiction and non-fiction, including books on health and well-being. What I read often changes depending on the phase of life I’m in, what I’m curious about, or what I feel I need at the time. Fiction, in particular, offers such a wide range of perspectives and emotional depth—it’s like stepping into someone else’s world for a while.
