ABOUT ME

I a mliving in Florianópolis for quite a while. I had some exchange experiences in London, Barcelona and Brussel. I am very easy going, like to meet knew people from different places. I am really looking forward to better understand the history and culture from the people I meet. I love food and I realy enjoy cooking. I live close to the beach, so surf is my hobbye. like to feel free in the ocean.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy of life is to continuous learn with the people I will meet and try to contribute in the best form that I can in the world with my own personal experiences that I learned in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate in the couch surfing project in a way that we can all help each other with the objective in which we can travel in a cheaper away and more and more people can discover the wonders of our world. This is a very good experience to meet the real things of the cities, with the help of the people that really live there and really know the good and important things to do instead of just getting to know the touristic places.. The most important thing is to get into the real culture of the places that we will go and have a truly experience of the knew places we are going to know!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of the most interesting experience I've had in a couch surfing experience was when I went to a small city in Brazil, called Ouro Preto. At the moment I was not in this program and I was in the beginning of my college studies.I stayed in a house of some friends from my school, but I only knew one friend in a house of 5 people ( students of the university of Ouro Preto). It was summer in my country and the carnaval season. This city had a lot of historic places and is very important in the history of the colonization of Brasil. Its really know in Brasil ,but it is a small town full of surprises.The good thing that I enjoyed in this trip is that my couch hostess took me to places I've never imagined I would go. We got to know some of the ancients people of the city and theirs particulars interests and histories about the place.. I got to experience the real good food and drinking of that place made by the real people that lived there and that had generations of family that lived there. Some went to bigger cities and some stayed. It was very good fun. It was a very good trip and a very good experience, especially for me that in the time had not a lot of traveling knowledge.

Interests

I am interested in getting to know the different ways of living in this very big world. My interest is to learn with the different lifestyles in the places that I visited and that I will visit in the future and open my horizons to discover how our life are so different but at the same time we can all get to know this whole different forms of living and choose our own lifestyles based in our personal experiences.
I love cooking and get to know different kinds of food
