About Me

I am a brazilian student of International Relations in the University of Sao Paulo. I am currently on a 6 month exchange program in Edinburgh. I absolutely love travelling and getting to know new people and new cultures, so I want to make the most of this experience abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The idea of staying with a local and getting to know somewhere from the inside is just wonderful.

Interests

I love travelling, food (specially sweets), movies, dancing (I've had a few classes, but can't actually remember much) and good music. I can play the guitar and the piano a little bit and I am also part of a samba band in my home University, which I am very passionate about.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite artists are Dave Matthews Band, Dispatch, Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz. I do like pop music a lot and brazilian rhythms such as samba and forró.

I love all kinds of movies. I actually have a Animation degree, so I do like animation movies a lot.

I grew up reading Agatha Christie, moved on to Harry Potter, Bernard Cornwell, Isaac Asimov and am currently loving Game of Thrones. I do like brazilian literature a lot, such as Fernando Sabino and Guimaraes Rosa.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping on the Brazilian Pantanal in Mato Grosso do Sul was probably one of the best things I've done.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can probably teach you some portuguese and begginers spanish. There is also a very easy brazilian dessert that is usually a success.

I'd love to learn new languages and cultures, share experiences and world views.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share knowledge about Brazil and São Paulo, teach you some words in portuguese and maybe try to cook something typical.
