About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Beating natural selection.

ABOUT ME

Barbara, Brazilian, 26 years old, biologist and scientific illustrator, currently working in a IT company. After finishing my studies I decided to come to Europe to study a little bit more (Scientific Illustration), but after that (1 year) I realized that my adventure should keep ongoing so I looked up randomly for a job (not that randomly bc I had a bunch of Polish friends) and BAM: Poland.
I consider myself someone that goes with the flow and plans later...and for now it's working quite ok.
Probably I will make a lot of questions! But it's only because I want to know more about you and your culture.

:)

- Bear in mind that I'm afraid of whales but I think they are majestic animals!
- You can learn more about me if you read my girlfriend's profile:
https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/ninadurys (Yes i think Poland have some issue with kapusta)
- I DO NOT LIKE FOOTBALL, OR CARNIVAL AND I DO NOT OWN SNAKES, so please ask other stuff about Brazil. ..it would be nice :)

PHILOSOPHY

There's more to see, more things to taste, more stories to listen and awesome people to know. Why should I stay here if I can keep on going?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people, places, food and cultures! And also bc I'm poor hahaha
