🧡 Meet Your Local Guide
Phoebe comes from the peaceful province of Dong Thap, but these days she calls Ho Chi Minh City her second home. She’s currently a university student majoring in English, which is a subject that not only fuels her curiosity but also connects her with people from all over the world.
Alongside her studies, she works as an English teaching assistant and part-time receptionist at a restaurant, where her bright personality and love for conversation always shine through. Traveling is one of her biggest passions, and she enjoys sharing stories about local life with visitors who want to see Vietnam from a local’s point of view. Warm, curious, and full of youthful energy, Phoebe brings a genuine love for people and discovery into everything she does.
