After spending a year teaching at a university in Vietnam, I've officially joined the business world in the United States. Even so, I don't plan on giving up travel especially as the list of places I want to visit and people I want to see again grows.

I love exploring both out in nature and in cities. I also love playing/listening to live music. I've been called optimistic by some of my friends, and I am always down to try new things and do anything really.

This goes hand in hand with the fact that I love learning. It sounds dorky, but I love learning new things about whatever...music, people, history, anything really.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

In my time living in a few different countries for varying amounts of time, I've learned that my favorite part of traveling isn't just looking at things, but really getting to know people. Even if only for a brief amount of time, meeting new people has always been worth it. That's what brought me to CouchSurfing at least. My amazing experiences with CS in Belgium, Spain, and Singapore are why I'm still on this site.

音乐、电影和书籍

I like too many things. Instead I'll just pick what I've read/seen/heard lately

Book: Count of Montecristo. I'm loving it! A classic for a reason.

Movie: Kung-Pow (If you've seen it, quote with me!)

Music: Muse (Finally got to see them live, and they rocked)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A bull shark bigger than the kayak I was in charged at me.

教，学，和分享

How to wiggle your ears.

If that doesn't work, I can teach you some simple Vietnamese phrases and stories.

I also love Couch Surfing jam sessions!
