I have my own goals and the things I want to do in life, for myself, for people, and I don't really mind if people agree with me, I just do it, you know? Because I don't like validation. I think a lot of people need validation to do what they do… and for me, I tried to avoid this bias of being validated by others.”</p><br><p>❤️ <strong>TIMELINE:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>6’ - Having multiple identities</p><p>10’ - Exploring the world to discover different cultures</p><p>19’ - Falling in love with popular science</p><p>23’ - Exploring the coffee that can adapt to climate change</p><p>37’ - What citizens can do to support sustainable coffee producers</p><p>45’ - Trying to be a travel YouTuber ;)</p><p>47’ - Starting a blog to keep on learning</p><p>64’ - Detaching yourself from peer validation</p><br><p>🗒️<strong> References:</strong></p><p>Thuan’s talk at TEDxYouth@Hanoi - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LpiWkr0Z1w" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The coffee of tomorrow</a>.</p><p>TEDxTalk - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L375-rWJVmU" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">My journey to thank all the people responsible for my morning coffee</a>.</p><p>Thuan’s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQPFb1pjobnZVG-AUX4G3WQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube channel</a>.</p><p>Thuan’s Medium blog: <a href="https://thunsarzynski.medium.com" rel="noopener noreferr
