  Jun 2019 - Jan 2020

  Traveler

  Where I went: United States, Italy, Vatican, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Slovenia, Hungary, China, New Zealand.After graduating from the university, I decided to make something different and try different ways of life before my next life stage. What is more important is to explore the world from my own eyes and my perspective, to feel the world, to satisfy my curiosity, and to think about myself, to know more of myself during the journey.For the first 45 days in Europe, I joined a backpacker group. Team members are very international. They are from New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Canada, The United Kingdom, France, Spain, Venezuela; They come from all walks of life, including university teachers, military personnel, company managers, and so on. We became a mini-United Nations, living and making travel plans together throughout the trip. We discuss different historical sites, cultural customs, and hot news and offer our own opinions. Being the only Asian face on the team puts a lot of pressure on me, but I really enjoyed and I'm proud to speak for all of Asia. Show less
