Just ask this girl anything which you know and love about Hanoi, she’ll make it better. Travelling becomes her frequent habit which takes place during the year, and not just 1 time, 1 country. Jumping into countless water pools up to 10-meter-high at Kawasan Falls (Philippines) or sampling fried scorpions at a street vendor on Khao San Road (Thailand) … are just a few of many typical examples when this sassy girl went out of her comfort zone. Apart from the adrenaline thirst, she also believes that her on-going travels strongly support her career as a travel consultant.
