Today we’d like to introduce you to Tien Chen.
Hi Tien, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I loved traveling as a child with my family and continued to do so when I hit my adulthood. However when covid hit, I was no longer able to travel so I started re-editing my past travel videos as I’m stuck at home. And from there I grew my audience and eventually become a travel creator now
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Yes it’s been pretty smooth career wise but health wise it’s been a struggle. I was diagnosed with lupus is 2020 and have been fighting the disease for years. My health limits me to many activities and often sends me to the hospital. I wanted to keep my life as normal as possible to inspire other autoimmune persons that your life doesn’t need to stop just because of a diagnosis. You can still chase your dreams
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I’m a travel influencer and built an incredible community over the years. I find luxury finds for a steal and offer sustainable travel tips. During my time at home I also spend a lot of time exploring the nearby towns and small gems. I’ve glamped in Johnson city as well as enjoyed ranch life with my friends in an incredible VRBO in Fredericksburg. There’s so many beautiful destinations around us and I want to be able to experience them all to share with you.
Any big plans?
I will keep traveling!
