Hello! My name is Andrea, I am currently working as an environmental legal counsel. As a lawyer, it seems we never stop study so currently I am doing a LL.M part-time program at the University of Zürich in International business law.
I am really friendly, positive and open-minded girl who likes to discover the world and enjoys doing it with nice company.
I love nature, mostly the sea, where I spend loads of my free time mostly diving, but also sailing. I love animals too, so I have a dog named Bombo and I like to walk every afternoon with it for hours and get lost in Retiro´s Park, close to my home.
I think I have a great sense of humor. I have to warn you that it is not sweet at all but sarcastisc. My friends say that I am funny and schating. I think this is probably because I was growing up with Monty Pyhton ( yes, I LOVE MONTY PYHTON). Some of my friends are scared that I can memorize their speeches and tell them in any kind of situation.
Before I became a lawyer I was studying music, and I focused on piano, so I can say I am a piano-player too.
I can define myself as well as a bookworm ( I read everything I find, it does not matter what is it).
But not all is reading and playing music. I like to run around with my friends everywhere and my special personality is constantly making me live through surrealistic and crazy situations that always end up in the least expected way ( always nice by the way).
The word that better defines me is "philanthropist": I like human beings and I think in general people are great, you just need sometimes a bit of time to discover it. I am "life-lover" and I think hapiness is done to be shared.
As Cartier Bresson told: "You just have to live and life will give you pictures" that means that I love to take some pictures, I travel with my camera everywhere, so if you are in the mood, you can pose for me ;)

To conclude about myself: I believe in pizza without pineapple!!!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

As a really open-minded person, I love to stay with people who live a completely different life style.
All in this word is a matter of perspective!
Couchsurfing gives us memories of a life time and that is priceless! I think living with people create unforgettable bounds. And I am really looking foward of being a part of it!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I can help you with your Spanish, recommend you some book and teach you to cook (mostly Spanish food, but I am also great with Italian too). If you have instruments and you like music, we could playalso together. As my host I will help you to keep the house in order, the spaces clean and of course respect your privacy. I will be very glad to learn something from you too.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

We can spend sometime together and share our experiences.
I can bring you some of my culture when we are together and I am pretty sure we will have a great time.
