Hello World,
My name is Vivian Wong and I will be launching, along with the rest of the iSquad, in August 2016. In the spirit of going to 11 countries in 11 months, I will share 11 facts about me as an introduction.
-
I am originally from Hong Kong. Since my family and I moved to the U.S. in 2001, I have had exactly 11 addresses since then (8 in NY, 1 in VT, 2 in PA).
-
My family consist of my parents, my sister, and I. They are the biggest supporter of everything I do. It’s entertaining to watch people’s reaction when they learn that Joanne and I are sisters because we are quite the opposite.
-
When I was searching for a full time job, I applied everywhere but New York City. Life is a joke sometimes; until launch, I work in the most iconic building in NYC – the Empire State Building!
-
I parked an airplane before I parked a car.
-
I have never eaten at Taco-Bell (and have no intention to start).
-
My nickname growing up, given by my cousin, was “7-Eleven” because I talk a lot.
-
I’m terrified of heights but I’ve summited Mount Ngauruhoe (“Mt. Doom” from LOTR) and have gone bungee Jumping. [New Zealand definitely brings the inner-strength in us!]
-
I’m a Packaging Engineer and I love it!
-
I am co-leading a Creative Arts growth group at my church this summer. Well, I’m not creative or artsy; this should be fun!
-
I am an XSTJ.
-
I’m super excited about this adventure!! My birthday will be the first day we arrive to Serbia; I’m entering the next quarter of my life with a bang!
I invite you to journey with me through the coming 11 months to 11 countries beginning in August 2016. Here is my route:
- Serbia
- Romania
- Bulgaria
- Macedonia
- Zambia
- Botswana
- Namibia
- Malaysia
- Thailand
- Cambodia
- Vietnam
