🧡 Meet Your Local Guide
Ngan graduated with a bachelor's degree in English language from Ho Chi Minh City Open University, one of the top schools for language studies in the city. She has a deep love for food and photography, so she’s always looking for new local spots that serve delicious dishes without breaking the budget.
Travel is one of her biggest joys, especially exploring different places across Vietnam. She hopes to visit even more destinations in the future and share those experiences with friends from around the world. Her life motto is “Just try it,” because she believes that without taking the first step, even small success is out of reach.
When she was 10, Ngan dreamed of becoming a flight attendant. She once hesitated because of some scars on her legs, but now she’s ready to give it a try again next year. For her, it’s not just a dream job — it’s also a way to support her parents and grow into the person she wants to become.
