Maynard Zhang

Maynard is a travel advisor and life coach. He brings 12+ years of experience designing, planning, and leading trips for his clients around the world.

Maynard understands first-hand that travel can bring transformational change and personal growth to a person. Born and raised in a rural area in Northern China, Maynard only began venturing out of his hometown when he left for his undergrad in Hangzhou. Although he got a late start, his pent-up curiosity for the outside world led him to crave travel, new experiences, and meeting new people. In the process, he learned about himself and the world – both more broadly and deeply – one interaction at a time.

In the most recent years, Maynard has been focused on high-end / bespoke US-China travels and has brought many Chinese travelers to the Beautiful Country and U.S. clients to the Middle Kingdom. Today, he runs his own travel brand- MZ Travel, as an affiliate of Cadence, specializing in transformational travel. As a trained life coach, Maynard integrates coaching skills with his experience and connections in the travel industry to craft itineraries that not only help clients make the most out of their trips but also cultivate positive impact on themselves and ultimately the people around them.

When he is not traveling around, scouting new destinations and unique experiences, you will find Maynard in Seattle, where he is based.
