Overview
About Me
I'm a Brazilian light-hearted girl who loves to travel and meet new people. I am very open-minded and get easily excited about almost everything.
I'm currently planning a trip to Europe at the end of the year.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm here since 2013 but I'm actually only starting to use it now!
I love to travel, to meet new people, explore new places and get to know new cultures.
I'll be travelling to Europe in Jan/2019 (London - Dublin - Amsterdam - Berlin - Paris) and would like places to stay in Berlin and Paris, but most of all I want to meet locals and other travellers in each place I go!
Interests
I like going to new places - be it in my own city or in a country I've never been to. For me, the culture and the people are the most fun part of a trip.
Photography is one of my main hobbies and travelling is definitely a great opportunity to practice it (so I'd love to get tips on the best spots of each city I go to!)
I usually plan my travels around the architecture, culture and music venues of the places I go to.
I like seeing exhibitions and street art/ music and going to parks. I'm not a huge fan of parties, but I love a good pub or a small conrcert.
Basketball is the only sport I actually play but I find must of them really fun.
I love new experiences and I'm usually up for almost anything, unless it's too dangerous or something like that.

Music, Movies, and Books
MUSIC
I love Rock music, but also Indie, Punk, Blues, Jazz and a little bit of Pop.
Going to concerts is probably my favourite thing to do, and since I can't really choose my favourite songs, I'm just going to list a few concerts I've been to: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rolling Stones, Green Day, Offspring, Muse, Keane, The Who, Damien Rice, Pretenders, Royal Blood, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters and many, many more!
BOOKS
I grew up reading Harry Potter and A Series of Unfortunate Events and still absolutely love both series - with HP I'm almost abcessed, actually.
A few of my other favourites are On the Road by Jack Kerouac, The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm a friendly person who loves to go out, so I'm always up to talking and hanging out together.
I see most people here are apparently great cooks - that's not really my case haha, but i can make a good eggplant lasagna and brigadeiro (a Brazillian sweet).
Also I can always give you tips on visiting a few cities in Brazil - Rio de Janeiro (where I'm from), Petrópolis (a small city where I grew up in) and São Paulo (where i currently live)
