Hey there!
My name is Beatriz, but you can call me Bia ;)
I'm a Brazilian studying in the Netherlands, trying to make the best out of my time in Europe :)
I'm a very open-minded and friendly person, and I love being around different and new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This semester I'm going to study in the Netherlands, and while I'm in Europe I might as well travel around! I'm new on Couchsurfing, but I'm hoping to meet incredible people during my trips whom will be forever part of my journey!

I don't like that mechanical tourist formula of visiting places, when abroad I'm the happiest when I'm with locals, trying local food and specially learning the language! Those who know me know that the moment I learn to say "Good morning" in whichever language in the country I'm in no one can stop me from making friends hahahah

Also, I don't know what will be my availability to host in the Netherlands, but I'm sure that when I go back to Brazil I'll host you all in São Paulo!

Interests

I love partying and dancing, but I'm also a good company for a Netflix night in (just finished the last season of GoT and craving someone to talk to about it!!!)

One of my biggest interests is definitely playing and watching sports, especially soccer, volleyball or handball! I'm EXTRA excited for the Olympics in Rio this year, so if you are as interested in sports as I am I'm sure we can have great talks ;)
I also love CISV, a global NGO I'm part of, and I hope I can meet some CISVers on Couchsurfing!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm always listening to music, any music, but mostly alternative rock, pop and general Brazilian music! I'll teach you all the Brazilian songs and dance moves!
I'm also up for talking about movies and books, though I'm not really a nerd in these topics (working on that!)
However, one thing I'm addicted to are TV Series, if you want to, you can check m TV Show Time account to see what I've been watching lately: http://www.tvshowtime.com/en/user/677957/profile

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Definitely studying abroad!! Met the most amazing, crazy people of my life and also did the most amazing and crazy stuff! And I know this is just the beginning, greater times are coming!

Teach, Learn, Share

While abroad I want to be the best ambassador for Brazil that I can, so I'll teach you everything I know about my culture, lifestyle and that Brazilian optimism and happiness! I'm an okay cook, but I'm a maaad caipirinha maker (for those who enjoy a good drink hehe)

Also, I'm super interested in different cultures and daily things others do. I'll be happy to blend in your routine and get to know how people in your country live!

I'll be happy to share drinks, food and good memories!
