About Me

I'm a 22. I spent four years working as an Executive Assistant and I had to do lots of travels in the last two years.
While getting to know the world was one of the most amazing thing I've ever done, it got really tiring to work and travel that much. So I recently quit my job and went to Montreal to study French for a month.

I have a Japanese background, so I do understand a closed Japanese culture. But I was born and raised in Brazil, which might explain why I am so loud and outgoing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to get to know people while traveling and help people out in São Paulo.

Interests

I like to know people, in general. Though I get pretty annoyed if I have to spend A LOT of time with only one person.

I like watching series and movies, and watching acoustic covers videos.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to pretty much everything.

While I enjoy chick flick movies, I really like action movies like The Expendables and Fast and Furious. Or horror movies.

From Sidney Sheldon and Stephen King to Danielle Steel and JK Rowling, I like to read. period.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled the world?

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be able to teach Portuguese.

I'd love to practice my French, or German (though my German might be more rusty than I'd like to think).

Share stories? Experiences?

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences while traveling.

I am also a makeup artist. I used to work with it when I was younger, so some people actually enjoy it.

I know how to cook some Japanese food like Tempura or Yakisoba, so... that might be a plus?
