Networking

I’m also a proud member of:

More information about the VEF 2.0 Program can be found here.

With the motto “Talent goes hand in hand with humanity”, the community not only raises funds to award scholarships to outstanding students of high schools but also organizes monthly exchange sessions in Hanoi between students, students and members, guests, sponsors of the program. In addition, the community also organizes useful extracurricular activities such as English Club, Career Orientation Club… to help students develop comprehensively in the future.

However, EDM alone is not enough to balance my music taste. I also enjoy listening to Disney songs, primarily from the Disney Princesses (including Anna & Elsa), and Disney Parks’ background music. This combination has created a unique playlist that I listen to daily:
