ABOUT ME

I was born in Vietnam and moved to the states in October of 1994, ever since I have been living in Portland OR. Last fall I moved down to Corvallis for school but didn't end up going. Long story short I have been working and saving money, for what i don't know...i want to eventually go back to school, but i feel like something is holding me back. I trust my instincts, I'm not ready. So I deiced one Wednesday afternoon that i was not going to put my life long dream on hold any longer! I need a practical goal so that i can move on with my life. I called up my best friend of 13 years and told her we are planning a trip to Europe! It wasn't so much a request but more of a demand on my part, we've both always wanted to do this together so why not now? Its time to get myself back with a motivating experience!
I'm an Aquarius that means I can be: Eccentric, stubborn, unique, too confident, and likely to exhibit amazing reserves of will power and determination!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I LOVE OREGON! There is so much to see and explore. I have been to many places here but i have yet to scratch the surface. I've hiked on many trails in the Columbia Gorge and its always a different experience every time! Its amazing how each trail which is essentially in the same climate, in the same environment provides different scenery and a different hiking experience! There are many waterfalls, most people only visit the waterfalls along the historic highway ending up at the biggest is Multnomah falls. If you take time and hike up even a few hundred feet you will see smaller but just as beautiful natural wonders

The Oregon coast is also a very scenic place to visit. All along Freeway 101 from the tip of California heading North to Washington, the Oregon coast will not disappoint! Yes the water is always under 30 degrees, and yes there isn't always sunny skies but that is what makes the Oregon coast so unique. The dramatic coastal landscape, the raging water (great for surfing between Sept-Dec.) and public beaches you will always find a little private sanctuary for yourself. I don't think alot of Oregonians appreciate what we have. They are turned off by the stormy seas wishing for perfect California weather, they ignore they simple, slow movement of the ocean that capture the essence of being in nature.

This is only the surface of the Oregon I have seen. There are still Oregon's dessert, plains, and mountains that i have yet to visit and discover.
