Just an international post-baccalaureate knowledge-seeker who strives to make an entry to the academe in the US and a career in neuro-psychopathology. Love the sights, not so much the price. They say opera is when a guy gets stabbed in the back and, instead of bleeding, he sings. If you stab me in the back, I'll scream, loud. I love the sopranos, I love the tenors — I love the soloists, I love the corpse du ballet — I love the Waltz of Flowers, I love the Four Seasons. Do you? You are welcomed wherever I stay—I'll make sure to give you the bed, if I have but a single bed and a sleeping bag.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sympathy is good, but empathy is even better. You understand what budget restriction is, but when you share your restricted budget with others, I'll call it hell of an empathetic persona!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Let this heart and soul be fed to the ever greedy lips of grace and the ever lofty jaw of prestige.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach how to come from one culture and live in a totally, absolutely, and distinctively different one.
Learn to be patient and contend.
Share how multilingualism is linked to multiculturalism.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tung Bui, me, and myself. And, some scratchy-kinda, free-lance, support-worthy, and applause-super-worthy opera singing. (Hey, I've been trying hard to do Nessun Dorma!)
