Hello world travelers! I'm Cindy and, probably like you, I am consumed by wanderlust every. single. day. As of right now, I am mainly hosting, as my work schedule makes it a little difficult for me to surf.

I have a sincere thirst for life, and a curiosity to try new things and learn something new everyday. I also value the quality of experiences and believe that a well travelled person does not gain the most wisdom from the number of countries he or she have been to; rather, it is the quality of interactions and personal reflections one undergoes in the midst of traveling that are the most important to self development and awareness.

I tend to be a better listener than talker, and love asking questions to gauge my understanding. Yet behind my somewhat shy demeanor are also deep values and a strong belief that all individuals, regardless of background or circumstance, can reach success and feel empowered in life. There is so much potential around me.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Amazingly surprised by the generosity of others, complete strangers, who accepted my request, welcomed me into their homes, and treated me like family.
