Before I start introducing myself, I need to let you all know that unfortunately I'm not accepting guests.

I'm Bhrenda. I'm 23 years old and I came from south of Brazil to live in Evora, Portugal as an ERASMUS student. As an Architecture and urbanism student - almost finishing my five years of architorture (architecture is awesome, but sometimes it hurts)- I'm crazy about history, streets, buildings and all this stuff that architects cannot stop talking about; and traveling 'cause this is the best way to really understand architecture and urbanism besides the books.

But architecture and traveing aren't my only love. What I most love on this life is to notice all of details of our daily lives. It can be that amazing coffee smell, the sunset, feet on the grass, people laugh, urban sounds, live music on places, etc... I just like to feel what makes us feel alive and have a big smile on our faces.

Also I love art, mostly architecture (of course) cinema and music.

I understand english more than I speak, but I'm trying hard. :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The contact with another people, another culture, another language, another way of living and making is precious! How much can we grow just exchanging and learning with people and their life stories? That's why I'm here, to contribute to someone's life and also to carry a little of someone with me. The culture, knowledge, skills, language... something that makes all the exchanges unique.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really appreciate the seventh art. I enjoy watching docs and short films, mostly into a cultural aspect.
Nouvelle vague is one of my favorite gender; two of my favorite directors are David Lynch and Yorgos Lanthimos; and my favorite movie I think is the German expressionism, Nosferatu directed by F.W. Marnau. And to finish, what I most love into the seventh art is the art production. But I also like the pop culture, so yeah, I watch Hollywood movies.
Also I love music. I'm listen to music everytime of my day and I really appreciate finding new genders, bands, groups, singers... I like pop, dream pop, Brazilian and Latin genders, rock, metal, alternative, and so much more that I can't remember right now. But I like music, that's it!
And about books, I like to read about feminism, architecture, sociology, philosophy and also fictional murder stories.
In resume, I like everything.
