Vinh Quang Tran - Personal

Trivia

  • My full name in Vietnamese is Tran Quang Vinh, where my first name, Quang Vinh, means glory.

  • In Vietnam, the last word of the first name are often used for addressing your friend, hence, just call me Vinh (or Vin).

  • Tran is my surname and is the second most popular surname in Vietnam.

  • My full name can be written in Chinese characters as 陳光栄.

  • When I am not working, you probably find me in the rec center playing badminton or football.

  • If you can not find me in the rec center, I would be somewhere in the mountain hiking.

  • Oops! I am not in the mountain either. Go to the local bar. There is a high chance that I am drinking draft beer over there.

  • I am also an amateur photographer.
