Hey! I'm Bettina :)

I am a freelance writer, art enthusiast and world traveller. Originally from Brazil but relocated to London, UK over a decade ago.

I believe in questioning the status quo and finding alternative ways of living, creating, and connecting with different cultures across the world.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I struggle to pick favourites as I get scared of putting myself in a box instead of experimenting, so my answer will be a bit broad.

Music: I listen to pretty much everything as long as it sparks something in me. I have a particular interest in the 60-70s so loads of jazz, bossanova, soul, indie, rock. Techno and rnb always get me moving too.

Movies: documentaries

Books: on politics, art & psychology
