- I want to live a life well-lived -

Currently, I am living in Vancouver, Canada.

I was born in a small hometown in the Mekong delta region in Vietnam. My family then moved to Saigon (or Ho Chi Minh city) a few years later.
I came to the US when I was 18 for college and have lived here ever since. While in the US, I've done a lot of road trips with my family and friends. I have traveled to most of America (40 states) with Utah being the most recent destination. I recently moved back to Ho Chi Minh city for 7 months before I make my next chapter in life in Vancouver, Canada. I would love to meet and possibly host some friends in my hometown.

I have also stayed in South Korea for a couple of summers when my father was teaching in a university in Daejeon.

My hometown is known for people with friendly smiles, hospitality, and kind-hearted personality. And no matter how far away I am removed from the Mekong delta, I still carry some of that background in me.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Traveling with the locals is always the best! How else would I know where the best local food is served! =D In addition, I love meeting new people and making new friends through traveling experiences.

Curiosity has led me to many adventures.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

If I am your guest, I will be happy to share my traveling stories, knowledge in Vietnamese culture and language, my experience as an expatriate in the US and as a new immigrant in Canada.
If time permits and ingredients are available, I can cook up some Vietnamese dish. I am a total foodie and enjoy cooking (as long as somebody else does dishes)! =D
