About Me

CURRENTLY
I am working and living in a hostel in Lencois, Chapada Diamantina.

🇬🇧 I am a curious and open-minded person. I have friends from many different countries, cultures, and religions. I am sure there are no barriers to such bliss as friendship! I think diversity is the best thing in the World!

I used to live for several years in Warsaw, Poland working in hospitality. I quit the comfortable life with a fair salary to volunteer in Portugal for a year. I was doing yoga with children, manicures in an elderly center, dancing with disabled people, brushing donkeys, gardening, performing in theatre shows, doing street art... damn I could talk about it for a long time!

Since then I've been traveling, and working in different places, with people of different nationalities and personalities. I love sharing life stories and discussing many topics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, Couchsurfing is a way to connect with friends I have never met before. I love it for bringing together people of similar lifestyles and values.

While travelling I always look for the opportunity to dive into the local lifestyle / as a host I am more than happy to show travellers my favourite places.

Interests

I like to spend time actively and I'm the happiest when I'm dancing.

About cities, I like architecture, cafes, and art museums, but honestly, I prefer natural and calm places (especially mountains and the coast).

I am an animal lover, ecology-friendly, healthy lifestyle freak.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving was the most intense experience I think :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I like sharing travel experiences and I can tell you more about Erasmus projects such as European Solidarity Corps, youth exchanges, and work camps.

I am a yoga teacher, I do it every day and will be more than happy if you join me.

I am fluent in English (if you want to practice conversations). I would like to practice my Portuguese.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will share my laughter as I am so hilarious I am laughing at my own jokes every day :D

I can bring some local specialties (from the place I am traveling at the moment)

I am a chill, flexible person - if you want to hang out we will; if you need time for yourself or have other plans - I am okay with that too!
