Hello!! My name is Gabriela, from Brasil but have been traveling for the last few years, working and learning languages! I grew up with English, learned Spanish selling tango shows in Argentina, perfected my French working in a scuba diving center in Mexico (many French Canadians tourists). I taught English in Brazil for a year and a half and in Mexico I taught Spanish for six months. Now I would like to learn German!! I'm a very happy, outgoing and friendly person. Also very curious and ready to meet people who are born in Germany or people who work here and know Berlin well!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm doing a German course in Berlin until October! If anyone needs some language practice, let me know!

Music, Movies, and Books

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho changes my perspective on everything every time I read it!! I love all types of music and movies but I love stupid comedies like Talledega Nights: the Ballad of Ricky Bobby

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working in Mexico I learned how to dive. I have swam with whale sharks (10 meters long), nurse sharks, bull sharks! I also helped hatch baby turtles on the beach!!! That was one of the best days I've ever had :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lots of language practice from someone who understands and has patience to teach! I always offer a happy face that is up to do anything! And information on Brasil, Argentina or Mexico if you want to go someday!!
