I am a 21 years old and economics student from Salvador, up in the northeastern coast of Brazil! I moved to São Paulo in 2015 to study and now I am going to Bergen, Norway, for a semester abroad! I have been a volunteer with CISV since 2010 and it has lead me to live for a short period in many places such as Norway and Guatemala. I have also worked for the Walt Disney World during the winter vacation from 2017/2018 and this was an experience that changed my life! I'm very interested in photography as well as literature and learning more about foreign languages.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've stayed in hostels before and met a lot of awesome people and I hope that being a couchsurfer will be an adventure just as cool and that I'll get to live the cities I visit like a local.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy brazilian music, from both nowadays and the 80s and 90s!! I truly love brazilian music! I also listen to pop music and i have an interest in the indie scene such as Of Monsters and Men, Honest Men as well as The Smiths, Kooks, Strokes and some more.

About movies, I really enjoy films from David Fincher (such as se7en, gone girl, the game) and Christopher Nolan (the Batman trilogy, The prestige, Inception, Dunkirk) as well as others like Harry Potter and the Hunger Games and Maze Runner.

I have been reading a lot of literature in portuguese both from author from brazil and from portugal (mainly Saramago) and some famous books from around the world that arrive in Brazil. I really like to read the books before watching the movies, so I read all the books from the movies I talked about before and I am a really big fan of Disney and Pixar movies and animations!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked at the Walt Disney World in Orlando!

Teach, Learn, Share

It would be very interesting to talk about photography skills, local literature, travel experiences! I would also be glad to learn some cooking and things like that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A little bit about brazilian music history, basic knowledge about languages such as portuguese and spanish, how to cook a very famous and easy desert from Brazil called brigadeiro, fun stories and a lot of random conversation topics (I basically love to talk ahahahaha)!
