Overview
About Me
I am a brazilian language teacher, who is currently living in Germany, where I am doing a Master program in Political economy. I am a very social and open-minded person, who loves to travel and get to know people with different worldviews.
I like to go out to pubs, drinking beer and hanging out with fun people. I love listening to music, going to concerts and going vinyl digging. When travelling, I like to interact with people everywhere I go - supermarket, restaurants, bars, parties. I am a real chatterbox. I love animals - ''never trust anyone who really does not like animals''I always say.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am participating in Couchsurfing because I believe that one of the ways to grow as a person is to get in touch with people that think differently than you. Getting to know people from different cultures, who have strange worldviews teaches you a lot and makes a more tolerant person. Wherever you are, if you offer people your friendship and your kindness, you can always make a connection. When I travel, I like to see people, not only landscapes.
