Living in San Francisco sinceI moved from Brazil in 2009. In 2010 I completely redefined my lifestyle by integrating a lot cycling, yoga, meditation, eating healthy and caring about my body and mind more then I ever did. I went completely vegan and have been eating this way since then. Started eating macrobiotics and experimenting many diets since. I love traveling and meeting new people and new cultures. I would like to be able to explore India, where I plan on doing my yoga teaching training this year (2015). I would also love to travel around Thailand, Indonesia and Bali.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would LOVE to share my space with the world and open my doors to people who are like minded, want to share interests, stories and ideas. And if the time is good for me I would love to take my guests on a bike tour of the city and the Bay Area if biking is your thing I think you'll love it. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've attended two 10 day course Vipassana Meditations, where you don't speak, talk, or have any kind of physical or vocal communication and contact with anyone else, and I've meditated over 100 hours in those 10 days.
