What The Experience With This Project Has Been Like So Far

It is her first time recording a song, so it was at first a bit intriguing … and intimidating but at the same time, also a blessing and fun experience. Queenie cannot wait to hear the public release of  “In Harmony” in all its multilingual versions.

Interesting Facts About Queenie

Born in Vietnam, Queenie was brought up in Brussels (Belgium). Hence, she had the chance to learn all three Belgian national languages, ie., French, Dutch and German. That being said, she has forgotten a lot of the Dutch and German but French, being her mother tongue, runs deep in her veins, she could never forget it. She can also speak, understand and write (self-taught) Vietnamese.

Queenie is interested in Western and Eastern Chinese Medicine equally and is a certified instructor of CK10 (mix of taichi/qi gong/yoga exercises).

In her free time, she enjoys cooking/baking and discovering/perfecting new recipes. Queenie also does freelance French translation. She learns and tries to apply Buddhist principles to her life, hence her love for volunteering and lending a hand to charity organizations as a way of being thankful and grateful for what she has and has become, thanks to the support, care as well as love of many who crossed her path.
