ABOUT ME

My name is Chandra, I'm the fourth children of my parents, and I'm the oly one who was born in Brazil and we live here scince that.
I live in Brasília, the capital and a new city, built on 60's, a mystical place, with many waterfalls and predestination promises a glorious future.
I'm graduate in the University of Brasília, on that time I use to work like a receptionist in conferences and congresses of the governament, and starting to sell indian staff, what bwcame my real job for about 8 years and allowed me to finish my graduation in social work, having even a year working in a hospital with alcohol and other drugs users, was as a social worker lerner. That was an incredible experience.
But now, I just want to fly paraglid! I've learned how to fly two years ago and have won second place in a few competitions and getting better on this. I allways surfed and skateboard but now I found my reason to be alive. I've meet meny countries and flew in some of them like Canada, Nepal, Australia, Chile and France and I'm willing to share and learn from people and keep flying all around the world!Learning paragliding, really, I reconected with nature, and realise I can't be in one office all day. I like to take care of garden, and be nature. But I like urban things also!

Is a little embarasing splain myself, but I just want to meet the world and people around. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After I traveled in South America with my sister (before I enter university) I made my account. I used to travel a lot and we hear about couchsurfing in Peru.
In the meaddle of my graduation I made one period of my course in other university, in the coast of Brazil. There I meet people of couchsurfing and did just 2 times, but it have many years. I didn't use to have good internet or patience touse it for good, and now I decide to use moore. Now I have a place where I can recive people, and I'm readdy to surfing on couchs, and give mine to people!
