About Me

Hello! I'm brazilian, living in Rio de Janeiro and what I love most about traveling is meeting people and hearing their stories. I have a travel blog called Gira Mundo ( www.bloggiramundo.com • @bloggiramundo) where I talk about feminist, sustainable and cultural experiences and I make bike tours in Rio with Airbnb.

Olar! Sou brasileira, moro no Rio de Janeiro e o que eu mais amo viajando é conhecer pessoas e ouvir suas histórias. Eu tenho um blog de viagens chamado Gira Mundo, em que eu compartilho experiências feministas, sustentáveis e culturais. Eu também tenho um rolé de bike aqui no Rio pelo Airbnb Experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What I love most when I travel is meeting people and try feel the vibe of the city, the local culture. The best way to do it is exchanging with people that lives on the cities! That's why I like to stay in local houses. Here in Rio is the same for me, I loooove to show my city, really. It's something that gives me a big pleasure, because Brazil and Rio have a really bad image of safety on the world, especially for women. I love to show the best things we have in here, always in the alternative culture.

Interests

For me riding bikes is a way of life and a political act. I ride everyday, everywhere, for fun, for transportation, for sport. It's one of my favorite things in life, for sure. Also, I do yoga and I love to be in touch with nature. Big cities get my interest when I meet people that show me their way of life, but normally I prefer to travel to natural landscapes and make hikes.
