About Me

I'm a Brazilian student, just finishing University.

I've studied abroad in Japan for one year in 2016, and made many friends in Japan, but also from all over the world.

I enjoy trying new foods, meeting people, literature, walking outside and swimming!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the world, learn how other people live outside Brazil, what they think.

Making new friends is always good, and it is even better if we get to see the world and share stories.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Chopin, Joe Satriani, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Toquinho e Vinícius, Paco de Lucia.

Movies: Dead Poet Society, Midnight in Paris, Lucy.

Books: My favorite ones, by far, are "The Name of the Wind" and "The Wise Man's Fear" by Patrik Rothfuss; one of my darlings is Faust (Goethe), and the works of Dazai Osamu (specially 斜陽, ロマネスク and 清貧譚).

Of Brazilian books, my favorite would be "O Alquimista" by Paulo Coelho (changed my life when I was a kid).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walk through and climb "Terra Ronca" caves in Brazil, climb half of Mt. Fuji (I still have to go to the top! haha), and writing my graduation paper with more than 70 pages in less then one month, and still getting A+!

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I can teach a little bit of portuguese, and share some stories! Maybe share a little bit about brazilian culture also, specially music.

I would looooove to learn how to cook dishes from all over the world. Learn about their culture and history a little bit, cool places and talk about literature.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Brazilian culture and folk stories, brazilian music and maybe some dance like forró and sertanejo (I'm terrible though! - still fun).

some brazilian recipies (the famous "brigadeiro", "beijinho" and other stuff!)
