ABOUT ME
My story of where it all began
Hello and welcome to Chasing Dreams! I’m Sheila Xu, a passionate traveler and food enthusiast living in the vibrant city of Las Vegas. Now in my mid-40s, I have been fortunate to journey through more than 30 countries, each adventure offering new insights and flavors.
My idea of traveling centers around the concept of slow travel. For me, it’s not just about ticking destinations off a list—it’s about immersing myself in the soul of a place. Slow travel allows me to engage deeply with the local culture, savoring each moment and experience. I cherish the opportunity to live like a local, whether it’s wandering through quiet neighborhoods, enjoying leisurely meals at the markets-run eateries, or participating in community events.
This approach enables me to form genuine connections with people and places, making each journey uniquely memorable. By taking the time to understand different lifestyles and traditions, I’m not just a visitor—I become a part of the story of the places I explore.
Thank you for joining me on this adventure. I look forward to embracing a nomadic lifestyle, I hope Chasing Dreams becomes a valuable resource for your own slow travel adventures.
Yours Truly,
