Overview

As an art and architecture, I have curated paintings and sculptures for over 15 years, guided by a talented artist friend. This collection captures daily life across Vietnam; one piece was chosen as the poster for a national exhibition, and two were sought by the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum.
I have built 2 homes, both featured on the cover of architecture Magazine. my home now is a peaceful sanctuary where I enjoy life's simple pleasures: tending my garden, playing music, and living alongside art.
Having lived and studied in Melbourne and Paris for three years, alongside extensive travel, I deeply value human connection. I created this tour to share the genuine, warm hospitality of Saigon. As a passionate home cook, I love preparing authentic chicken pho and crispy spring rolls using cherished family recipes.
Having hosted over 10 guests from Europe and the US, all leaving with high praise, I look forward to welcoming you into my home for an unforgettable cultural journey.
