ABOUT ME
I'm a freelance journalist/translator. I'm talkative, polite and interested in culture. I read a lot (I actually have a blog about books and translation). I work for a website that helps students to find a course abroad (mostly, I write and translate texts). I've been an au pair in USA for 18 months (between 2010 and 2011), and I've been to 11 countries so far. I absolutely love traveling!

Music, Movies, and Books
I read a lot. My favorite authors are Lionel Shriver, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Markus Zuzak, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Nick Hornby and J.K. Rowling . I love music, and I guess you can say I'm eclectic (i.e. I love U2, Lady Gaga, My Chemical Romance, Mumford and Sons, Franz Ferdinand, Stromae and Iron Maiden). And I adore live music and concerts; I've been to a couple of Rock in Rio, in Rio de Janeiro, and four Lollapaloza's in São Paulo, and dozens of concerts in Brazil and USA.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm proud of rescuing my three adorable female dogs from the street. I've been an au pair in USA for 18 months between 2010 and 2011. And I backpacked solo in Europe in 2018.
