Hi everyone! I'm Stella from Vietnam. I've just finished my Master's programme in Manchester, UK and now staying in Winnipeg, Canada with my fiancé Merom.
I started travelling a few years ago to discover the world around me, and ended up finding out more things about my inner world.
I've been always fascinated in learning about cultures, history and people. You would probably see me at the receiving end of a conversation.
Those in my circles would often find me smile and laugh a lot, even out of the silliest things :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be a living proof that it does not cost a fortune to travel.

To practise kindness and upkeep the belief in empathy and altruism.

To get to know more people from different places and learn endless new things.

To smile, to laugh, to share and to enjoy life with my own and other species (aliens, vampires and AIs are all welcome!)

Interests

I am more at ease in nature than in a human setting, unless it is an art gallery or a museum. With that being said, I enjoy going to concerts, matches and events here and there.

• cooking
• live music

• galleries
