Hello! I'm Aline, a journalist and traveler. I've been living in Rio for four years, three of which I spent in Brazil's most beautiful favela (Vidigal). I left Rio to travel across Africa, visiting 12 countries by land, from South Africa to Ethiopia. I met incredible people who welcomed me and helped me with great love. I also backpacked through Latin America. In short, I love to travel! Now I'm back in Rio de Janeiro and live in Copacabana. Unfortunately, I no longer host guests, but I am very happy to help surfers or meet up to do some activities and give back what other people have done for me around the world! If you need help, information, tips, or just want to go out on the town, get in touch here or on my Instagram @aline.trips

*** I am renting my apartment to up to two guests during Rio's Carnival (minimum seven days, at a rate of $200 per night).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Make new friends, exchange cultures, learn new languages, have a more global vision of the world and how people think and live.
