Hi, I am flOra. You can call me Flora, just like "flora" & fauna!
My husband Daniel and I love travel and together we have been to 31 countries the last 7 years. We live in Hawaii, Maui.

Since late 2021 we are on a sabbatical year to travel South America (done) and Europe (current). We really miss hanging out with new friends, meeting international people after what’s going on in the world the last couple years.
We are very open to learn new culture, we love food and cooking.

I am originally from Hong Kong. My husband Daniel is from the US (Minnesota). We have lived in Asia, mainland US and Hawaii. We look forward to meeting new friends and have good memories with people we met during our travel.

I love photography, fine art, writing, cartoon drawing. Back in Hawaii, I do full time photography for real estate.

P.S. We are fully vaccinated and had boosters (in case you wondered). We totally understand the Covid situation and what others comfort level are and will simply accommodate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people have always been fun and adventurous as you may end up spending time with strangers that become lifelong friends.

Some of our friends we met in 2015 on Couchsurfing, we have visited them in other countries again and still keeping in touch. We remember the people, almost more than the place itself. We can hang out, but if host is busy, we are very self conscious and quiet and can keep it to ourselves and we also like to go out and do things.
