Brazilian cat lady living kinda sabbatical

I'm travelling around Europe to know different cultures and new languages. I spent the last year and a half living and volunteering in Italy, Ireland, Germany and now Denmark.

For several years I worked as an interior architect in Brazil and Italy and a few years ago I have decided to dedicate myself to my greatest passion: cats. I developed a project aimed at creating specific furniture for cats and created Gateza, a profile to work as a catsitter and to improve my knowledge on feline behavior.

I'm a little shy at first, but after a while I love talking and enjoying a nice cup of coffee or a pint of beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love brasilian songs, like bossa nova and samba. Perhaps I can show to you some of that.

Love all Harry Potter books and movies, Grey's Anatomy addicted and really fan of Simpsons.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Leave all my life behind and start traveling with just a light luggage. It opened my head and my heart to so many things I couldn't imagine.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to experience a city/country like a local and to learn about different cultures, langages and ways of life.

Also I can bake an amazing brasilian chocolate cake (brigadeiro) and we can share good conversation while eating it with coffee.
