Hi! I’m Xinyu (pronounced closed to she-in -ü😀), a cinephile and film studies grad student who loves solo backpacking ✨ In 2025, I traveled through Southeast Asia and across Eurasia. CS gave me some amazing memories and friendships along the way 🌍 I’m currently interning in Shenzhen and started hosting. I have a cozy little studio with two beds😊 Always happy to chat, exchange travel stories, or relax together maybe even watch a movie (I got a new projector recently hhh)🍻🎬 UPDATE 2026 Starts Feb 2026, I’m now on a new trip across the Middle East ✈️ Estimated route: Turkey> Egypt > Jordan >Syria >Lebanon >Iraq > Oman >UAE > Saudi Arabia Update March Have no choice but to change my route due to war 🥲, now I’m back in Turkey further exploring the east part😃 Then ✈️ Russia 🇷🇺 taking the Trans-Siberian route🚂 and pass through Mongolia 🇲🇳 go back to Beijing!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
What truly draws me to traveling isn’t just the places it’s the conversations, the cultural exchange, and those magical moments of connection across cultures. That’s the part of travel I value the most, and why I think Couchsurfing is the perfect way to experience it.
