Today we’d like to introduce you to Tien Tran.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Tien. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
In my first year of college, I always tend to take pictures of food since the Houston food is very unique and diverse. My friends were always recommending me some restaurants that I would need to go try out in Houston. Since I lived in Cypress, it’s a little bit further for me, but it’s worth it to try it out. Then a few years later in 2017, I decided to make an Instagram account about food to share my experience of food as my food diary. A year later, I went to my first tasting in October 2018, I get to meet an inspiring food and lifestyle bloggers that would inspire me to change my content a little more. Since then, I have grown a lot in the foodie community and I hope that my account inspires people more to try out more Houston restaurants as an adventure.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
In the beginning, I didn’t post much on Instagram because I was busy with school. It’s a little bit of struggle balancing school and food life when it comes to posting pictures of social media. Six months later, I decided to get back into it and post my pictures of food on social media as Tieneats. I always loved taking pictures of food on my phone and posting it on social media. As the time goes on, food blogging has become one of my best experiences of my life. I get to meet so many awesome food bloggers and bond with them about our common interest of food which is so much fun!
Please tell us about TienEats.
Tieneats is the Instagram food page where I share my experience of food in Houston and beyond. Trying out some trending and new restaurants helps me inspire to go on food adventures to try out different types of food, drinks and products in the area. I’m very positive about sharing my experiences of food in the Houston area and beyond. Sharing my food adventures on my page hopes to inspire my followers to try out the restaurants that I recommend in the area. Since I was born here in Houston, I’m glad that I got to experience everything that is cultural and diverse.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I’m considered very lucky to be involved in the foodie community. Overall, the food blogging came into my life as a blessing and the motivation for taking pictures of food. I’m so grateful that I get to continue food blogging because I’m very passionate about it and I’m able to connect with other food bloggers who has the same passion of food. Between 2017 and now, I believe that my page has become better than ever before because I get to create more content for my followers about my passion of food. I’m happy with my food blogging where I am today and hopefully create more success on my account.
