The Experience

Looking for a Cultural Exchange Buddy in Hue! 🌍✨ Hi! My name is Sun, and I’m a local guide in Hue, Vietnam. I love meeting travelers from around the world, learning about different cultures, and improving my English. I’m looking for someone who would like to do a cultural exchange with me! In return for helping me practice English and assisting with some simple household chores, you can join my free walking tour in Hue.

I had the best days with Sun! She is such a good person, kind and caring. She took me to the city with her bike and showed me her favorite places. We also cooked together and went to the beach. Thank you so much Sun, I hope I can come back soon! And then we actually have to go jogging at 5am 😂

I really enjoyed my stay at the home! She is very sweet and welcoming. I really didn't have any tasks; I just swept the floor and helped her practice English through conversation! We made dinner together the second night, which was really fun. I recommend this experience to anyone looking for a more unique / local stay. She also lives right on the beach so its also good for anyone that loves the water! :)

Sun was the most heartwarming host that you can imagine -always smiling, always interested in getting to know you and your life and always there to help with anything you need. The short time that we could spend with her really allowed us to gain a new perspective of the local life in vietnam and on top we also gained a new friend that we would be glad to see again someday. Also Sun is the most ambitious person you will ever get to meet!! She is just in the beginning of starting her own business, there is so much to learn from her and you shouldn't miss that opportunity!! :)

The stay with Sun was very nice. We felt very welcome with her from the beginning. You could tell that she has a real interest in getting to know new people and showing her city to her guests. She is a very nice and inspiring person. Thank you very much for your time 🌞

I stayed 3 nights with Chau and her little brother and it was a pleasure. I really enjoyed it Even if she was working a lot, she took the time to talk and share her culture and dreams with me. I learned a lot about vietnam. The house is 30 min away from the city, next to the beach, so if she is busy working and you don't know how to drive a bike, be ready to enjoy the beach and chill (there is a coffee next door and places to eat all over the beach so it was nice to enjoy the day peacefuly).
