ABOUT ME

I'm brazilian, i'm 33. I'm a social scientist and I'm a documentary filmmaker. I'm currently a youtube producer and LGBTQIA+ activist. I have a youtube channel called Drag-se (youtube.com/dragsetv) and I really enjoy drag culture and night life, I'm also a drag king and a DJ. I'm currently in Rio and I live with friends here, I have a movie production company and I'm studying about trans representation on brazilian cinema, hopefully ater on in Latin America.
I like pretty much all sports, specially swimming and brazilian jiu jitsu. I love the movies but I don't go to the movies as often as I used to go.

PHILOSOPHY

I think everyone has a little bit to share or maybe a lot, that's what I'm looking for... I'm a trans person. I'm also a vegetarian and I really like to enjoy a day and a night out.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a brazilian in portugal that told me all about couchsurfing and that's how I got interested. I had only one experience in Lisbon surfing a couch and it was great! I hosted one portuguese and one american in Copacabana for now and it was also a great experience. Now i'm living in a different neighbourhood and I'm loooking forward for more!
