Hello! My name is Mai and I'm eighteen years old. I was born and raised in Vietnam but moved to the United States when I was six years old. Growing up, I always had a fascination with different cultures and languages, which is why I decided to study Japanese in college.
During my sophomore year of college, I interned at a non-profit organization that worked towards promoting cultural exchange between Japan and the United States. Through this experience, I was able to travel to Japan and immerse myself in their culture. It was during this trip that I discovered my love for Japanese food, particularly sushi!
Since then, I've been working as a sushi chef at a local restaurant here in New York City. I absolutely love my job because it allows me to continue exploring different cultures and cuisines while also sharing my own experiences with others.
In my free time, you can find me reading manga or watching anime. I'm also a big fan of hiking and exploring new places - particularly ones that have a rich history and culture.
Overall, I feel so lucky to have been able to experience different cultures and learn from them throughout my life. It's really shaped who I am today and has given me a passion for understanding and appreciating others.
