About Me

My name is Tran Duc Loi. I live in Ha Noi, Viet Nam and I speak English beside my local language Vietnamese. I've graduated from university for 3 years and my major was Electronics and Telecommunication. My interest in IT and programming make me spend a lot of time in learning by myself and it also help my works. I've been using Windows for 8 years and Linux Ubuntu for 2 years. Recently, I've moved to Ubuntu and found that it is another world with the different in the way things work.

My hobbies are reading books, programming and gardening. I also play PS - Play Station and jogging. My favorite soccer team is Arsenal. I'm not good at playing football but I used to watch matches on TV.
