About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am going to travel Vietnam from January 2020 and super excited!
I want to learn more about Vietnamese culture while I travel Vietnam.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel around the world, see how local people live, and learn about their culture.
I want to be a local person while I travel instead of being a typical tourist.
I am really easy to get along with and do not smoke.
Please let me know if you have any rules in your house. I am willing to follow.
I love to meet new people around the world!

PHILOSOPHY

It is always fun to meet people and get to know them
