About Me
CURRENT MISSION
A better world. A couch at a time.
ABOUT ME
I'm friendly, curious, interested, and proactive. I appreciate discover things which makes me change my ideas and look things from another point of view. The world is big and there is a lot of things to find, sometimes at the same place you are now (think different). I'm scout as well and that makes me really apreciat nature and camping. I love to do that with my husband and dog sometimes; and also, as volunteer scout chief, with the others youngs scouting, always exploring and learning.
I'm also an independent person. I love to be around friends and meet new and interesting people, but I also like to go and explore things by my own.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done
Having seen the "water dancing" of Fuente Magica in Barcelona. Rome covered with snow. London from The London Eye. That mess of colours in the main Marrakech's Medina. Students playing with a bull. The gorgeous green of the Park of Glendalough in Ireland. Drive on the right side of the car. Being completely covered of foam in a party. View of Machu Picchu from Wayna Picchu. French friends in Arequipa, Peru. Slept on the beach waking up with the sun. Sunsets in Brasília during the winter. The colors of Ipê's trees. Lose a tomato's war. Learning by an italian guy how to make a legitimate italian pizza. An adventure with a friend to go to this concert in São Paulo with no plans and no money. Travel alone. Travel with friends. Have a "pastel de nata" as a birthday cake. My first and unique tatoo. That rock 332 metros tall in Spain. Attend this amazing wedding in India. Get in those lakes that you cannot sink in this amazing part of Brazil called Jalapao. Getting on top of Dune of Pilat in France and see everything green on my left side and blue on my right. The coming back. The going.
Teach, Learn, Share
If you need some help with Portuguese or if you want to learn a little about this dance called "Forró" (it's a brazilian rhythm) or about Brazil's cultures, I'm here to help you. Or would be nice just sit and share histories and brigadeiro or just a beer. :)
