I operate Draper Startup House in Da Nang Vietnam. We're a coworking and coliving space. Sometimes my sofa is unoccupied and I welcome CS guests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined recently hosted a CS guest from India. It was such a positive experience, I decided to stay with CS with the hopes of meeting more people and to help people visit Vietnam.
