Henry's Introduction

Image
  Ahoy y’all! Me in Sapa during the Winter Break I’m Henry, the co-founder of Innovation Journal and Tech Explorer project. From the last blog, I’ve introduced me and Tiana briefly to all of you guys. Besides, Tiana also wrote a full description about our project on her own post , you can read it on our blog page . I just want to add that I am the one who popped up with the idea of using Innovation Journal as our digital diary. The others, including Tech Explorer and our portfolios , were Tiana’s ideas. Now, it is time for me to mainly introduce myself to you guys. When I’m writing this post, I am in grade 12th, following my country’s MOET’s curriculum and studying at Vietnam - Finland International School. From what I heard, this school is a collaboration between the Vietnamese and Finnish governments.

Tiana's Introduction

  Hi everyone, I’m Tiana, the founder of this Innovator Journal and Tech Explorer project. As you may know from our last blog. I was the one who proposed this project idea to Henry. Briefly, about our project, Tech Explorer is a collaborative project where we will share our stories, projects, opinions, and experiences related to technology. Innovators’ Journal, a section inside Tech Explorer, is where we express ourselves to the audiences through separate blog posts. It acts as a digital diary where we will share updates about mentioned topics. In addition, we also concluded our own portfolio where we showcase our individual projects and achievements.  Let me introduce myself to you guys. At the time I am writing this blog, I am a grade 11 IB student at the International School of Helsinki. My hobbies include reading books, painting, rock climbing, robotics, and coding. I’m most passionate about coding and robotics because they are both interesting and creative at the same tim...

The Beginning

Tiana & Henry Hello from us! We are the founders of Innovators’ Journal, Henry and Tiana. Both of us are from Vietnam, but Tiana moved to Finland (Helsinki) for almost two years while Henry is still studying in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh city). We first met each other almost four years ago when both of us transferred to a new school (we were from different schools). We were classmates, and then became friends.   Last weekend, when Henry was sleeping under the starry night, Tiana, still awake due to the time zone difference, sent a bunch of messages asking if he wanted to do the project with her. This is a part of Tiana’s CAS project (Henry still doesn't understand what CAS is), but will also provide a great opportunity for Henry, so he agreed. Creating this blog, we want it to be varied a bit in topics instead of limiting ourselves into a single one. While many of our posts will be around technology, our interest, there will be a special section “Daily-life Journal”. It will be like ...
