Off The Clock
Off the clock is where the rest of me lives. Five languages I love slipping between, a piano I waited half a lifetime to play, and somewhere new to go every year.
PIANO
Playing piano was a childhood wish I finally granted myself. I used to think I was tone-deaf, so being called my teacher's best adult student was a happy surprise. Now, some of my sweetest moments are simply playing for myself, just enjoying the music and the journey.
LANGUAGES
I love switching between Vietnamese, English, French, Chinese, and Japanese. Each language is a passport to new cultures, delicious food, and fresh perspectives. Learning them has even helped me rediscover the beauty of my native Vietnamese.
TRAVELING & PHOTOGRAPHY
Once a year I pack a bag and go somewhere new — to slow down, meet people, eat dishes I can't pronounce yet, and practise the languages I've been quietly collecting. Sunset over the sea, sunrise over a mountain range, all of it turned into memories I get to keep and share with the people I love. A few of those views live here .
