Henry's Introduction

By -

 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. So, the curriculum was a bit modified, merged between two learning styles. 


About me, I am a bit of a boring person as I prefer to stay quiet at home than going outside. Compared to most of my other friends, my life seems to be much more silent. Besides, my hobbies are very ordinary. When I have spare time, I like to read fiction novels, play video games, listen to music, and also, scroll through social media. Contrast with Tiana, I don’t see coding as a hobby, because I don’t do it as usual and get the same feeling compared to my other hobbies. 


For my career, I really want to be a software engineer. However, unlike Tiana, I’m okay with staying in Vietnam to study and work. Of course, most of everyone likes to work in a big company or corporation, and I do too. Vietnam still has a few big tech companies, and they are my dreams. I know these days, IT and CS are very competitive job markets, but I don’t know which of the other jobs I can choose. I was fascinated with technology.


I joined this project with Tiana not only for having a project to put into my profile, but also because I think this is an interesting thing to do, and also helping my friend to work with her CAS thing.


That’s all, I hope you enjoyed reading my introduction post! Me and Tiana will try to write at least one post every two weeks, so you will have stories to read!


Last but not least, for any South Asian and South East Asian readers who are also using the Lunar calendar, Happy Lunar New Year🌙🐍!
Location: Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

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 ...

  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...
