Hi, I’m Linh Ngo — a Vietnamese travel blogger, storyteller, and explorer currently based in Vietnam

My journey didn’t start with luxury trips or a long list of countries. It started with a decision in 2012: to leave Vietnam, step out of my comfort zone, and build a life abroad in Manila. Since then, travel has become more than a hobby—it’s become a way of life, a way of seeing, and a way of understanding the world.

By profession, I work in Finance for a US-based company. But beyond spreadsheets and numbers, you’ll find me planning my next trip, researching visa requirements, or chasing a flight to somewhere unfamiliar.

Why I Travel

Traveling with a Vietnamese passport is not always easy. Visas, paperwork, uncertainty—it can be frustrating. But for me, that’s part of the story.

Each visa sticker is not just permission to enter a country—it’s a small victory. Each journey carries a deeper meaning. Travel has taught me patience, resilience, and appreciation for every opportunity to see the world.

This blog, Fernweh by Linh Ngo, was born from that experience.

What “Fernweh” Mean

“Fernweh” (pronounced feirn-veyh) is a German word that describes a deep longing for distant places—a craving to explore somewhere far from home.

That word resonates deeply with me.

Here, I share:

  • Real travel experiences with a Vietnamese passport
  • Visa tips and honest insights
  • Destination guides and personal itineraries
  • Stories about people, cultures, and moments that stay with me
  • A touch of fashion and lifestyle that shapes my journey

The Moments That Matter

Travel, to me, is not about checking off countries.

It’s about people and moments.

It’s the stranger who helped me get into a cab and carefully told the driver how to take me home safely the very first time we met.
It’s the spontaneous beer nights with friends from different countries—people who are now scattered across the world, still chasing their own dreams.
It’s the Australian guy who walked away from a corporate job and became a DJ in Tokyo, reminding me that life doesn’t have to follow a script.

These are the stories that stay with me long after the trip ends.

My Philosophy

Travel is not a competition.
It’s a personal experience.

I don’t travel to impress.
I travel to feel.

To taste life in different cultures.
To connect with people from all walks of life.
To collect memories, not just destinations.

I haven’t been everywhere yet—but it’s on my list.
