Cui quit her job and went couch-surfing alone from the beginning of 2015. She variously worked as a teacher, translator, librarian and even volunteered for environmental protection in Africa before she started her journey.

Cui began to offer fellow travelers free accommodation in her own home after she came back from her journey. She has received couch-surfers from the US, Russia, France, Poland, Switzerland, Sri Lanka, Venezuela, Kazakhstan and Indonesia.
