Hello! I'm Clara a 24-year-old Brazilian who lives in Tallinn. I came here to study, and the decision to go very far from home is to get a whole new perspective on life! I enjoy getting to know new people, finding out about their cultures, and also sharing mine. I love to go out (a lot haha), I'm always down for a beer at the most local bar and great conversation, but could have fun at parties as well. As for my studies, this is a bit of who I am. I study International Law, acting as an advocate for human rights, these are my main principles. Always being kind and respecting others :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As an International Student, getting to know new places is what I most enjoy doing. As much as getting to see the famous spots in a new place is a must-do, for me traveling is also about understanding the local people and their habits. Plus, there's no better way to get to know a place from other people than locals ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm most into a lot of music! From pop to rock, old bands, and new pop stars. For sure, my favorite is Paramore <3

As for movies and books, I enjoy them but I get distracted very easily. It has to be something intense either romance or suspense.. if it's intense, it has my attention.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was still graduating from Law School, I joined a project that helped refugees and migrants in difficult situations. After a year, I turned this project into an NGO and ran as president for 2 years. We helped countless families to restart their life. Now the NGO has many volunteers and directors running it, and the project is getting even bigger
