Welcome To

About Me

Hello, I’m Sherry Liu,

Founder of Sunshine Homestay. My journey began years ago when I arrived in the United States as an international student. Moving to a new country was both exciting and overwhelming, but the kindness and support of my host family made all the difference. They didn’t just give me a place to stay—they provided me with a second home, helping me navigate cultural differences, improve my English, and build confidence in this new environment.

​

Inspired by my own experience, I created Sunshine Homestay to help other international students find the same comfort and support I was fortunate enough to receive. Our goal is to ensure that every student who comes to Florida can focus on their studies while enjoying the warmth and hospitality of a loving host family.
