Hi, I’m Linh! I’ve lived in Hanoi for over 20 years and this city never stops amazing me. They say when you truly love a place, it starts with the food - and Hanoi’s dishes have my heart forever: Bún chả, Bánh xèo, Phở, Bánh Mì, and Chả cá Lã Vọng! I also love uncovering hidden gems tucked away in the Old Quarter - secret cafés, cozy pubs and restaurants only locals know. When I’m not exploring, you’ll find me at a museum, taking photos, or sipping a seasonal coffee before heading to a bookstore. With my background in history, I enjoy sharing Hanoi’s fascinating past, culture, and of course, the best spots for authentic food and drinks!
