I'm Lina Chu — a Vietnamese-Ukrainian photographer who somehow ended up in Newfoundland, Canada, and fell completely in love with this place.
I moved here in March 2025 and have spent every weekend since exploring — from the Avalon Peninsula to Bonavista to Gros Morne. It taught me which trails are worth it and which are overhyped.
What makes my guides different:
- I actually live here (not a quick tourist visit)
- I hike year-round (winter, fog, rain — I've shot in it all)
- I'm a photographer, so every location is tested for visuals too
- I focus on experiences that connect you to the place, not just check-off lists
If you're coming to Newfoundland and want to see it the way it actually is, raw, moody, real, I'll show you where to go.
