About Me

Don't know how to pronounce my name?
Just call me Gloria :D

A student from Macao, China studying Tourism and Event Management.
Spent my 2016 spring semester in Linnaeus University Sweden as an exchange student.

Love traveling and experience different cultures and festivals! I'm a open-minded person and I love to share and learn everything!

I have studied about Tourism, Hospitality, and Event Management for 3.5 years, so I understand the importance of hospitality and how to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. As such, I know what a guest should behave and always should respect the host. That's why I like Couchsurfing, because it gives me a chance to share my love of hospitality and receive the same from others.

"IF IT'S STILL IN YOUR MIND, IT'S WORTH TAKING THE RISK"
Been trying to do things that I've never thought I would do before. After spending five months living and studying aboard, I realize that there are more of me to be explored. That's why I want to try different things to find out who I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet with people in different countries and live like a local! :D
