About Me

I'm originally from Vietnam but have been living in Auckland for the past 9 years. I recently became a New Zealand citizen.

I work in Marketing and enjoy singing, dancing, walking in nature, playing the piano, reading, practicing Yoga, meditating, and SUP boarding in my free time.

I love traveling, meeting new people, engaging in social activities and charity work. Looking forward to connecting with fellow travelers and hosts!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe in the power of connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds. Traveling isn't just about seeing new places; it's about experiencing them through the eyes of the locals. Couchsurfing allows me to do just that, making my journeys more enriching and authentic.

By staying with hosts, I get the opportunity to learn about their way of life, share my own experiences, and create meaningful friendships. I also enjoy hosting travelers, offering them a glimpse into my world and helping them feel at home.

(I used to host travelers through a shared account with my ex. Now that we've parted ways, I've created my own account to continue my Couchsurfing journey).

Couchsurfing aligns with my love for social activities, learning, and personal growth. It enables me to travel more sustainably and build a global network of like-minded individuals.
