About Me

Hi guys,

My name is Iris and I'm from Beijing, China. I moved to Doha with my husband and son in Sep 2024. After lived in the UK over a decade, and travelled across in Europe and the Mediterranean countries, I’ll start a new journey in the Middle East! Inshallah

Before having my son Tom in 2024, I was a very active solo traveller. I truly enjoyed the time with my CS hosts and highly appreciated the help they gave me during my trips. I also love meeting new people on the way. All those lovely people made my trips are so unique and unforgettable. As a return, I started hosting female CSers few years ago when I lived in central London as an encouragement to female solo travellers to explore the city.

After Tom was born, my life is changed. I would still like to host travellers in the future. But at the moment, maybe I can only meet up or give local advices.

Enjoy travelling!
