ABOUT ME
ENGLISH
I have just moved to Florianópolis, and I still don't know what I like doing here. I'm discovering the city and right now I'm not hosting.
I love traveling and getting to know different people and places. My family and I hosted exchange program students (4 Germans, 2 Brazilians and 1 Spanish).These experiences were so enriching that I decided myself to go to USA to live with an American family, study there, and of course travel around the country. That's when I made my Couchsurfing profile and used it to surf. When I came back to Brazil I decided to host people (since I do not travel as much as I wish). I have had nice experiences until now.
What can I say about me? I enjoy long walks, visiting parks and Museums, watching music, dance presentations and cultural events. I also like going to open markets, and local festivals.
I'm not a party girl. I like going to pubs and even dancing but I don't go so often. If you expect company to party hard you'll probably get disappointed.
What I really like is to be with people I can learn from and with. I enjoy people who are passionate about something, who live and study something deeply, and those who are open to share and discuss what they know.
I believe that there are some wannabe interesting people in CS community, which I think it is hard to connect with.
I love dancing, arts, literature, poetry, movies, nature, life.

PORTUGUÊS
Estou descobrindo o que gosto de fazer nesta cidade, agora estou morando em Florianópolis- SC para fazer mestrado.
Gosto de viajar e conhecer pessoas e lugares diferentes. Minha família e eu já hospedamos vários intercambistas (alemães, brasileiros e espanhol) e estas experiências foram tão enriquecedoras que eu decidi fazer um programa de intercambio nos EUA e conhecer o país. Aí eu fiz meu perfil de couchsurfer. Quando voltei ao Brasil decidi hospedar pessoas já que eu não consigo viajar o quanto gostaria. Tive boas experiências até agora.
Infelizmente não vou poder hospedar ninguém agora.
O que dizer sobre mim? Gosto de caminhar, ir em parques e museus, assistir apresentações de música e dança. Gosto de ir em festivais, visitar amigos.
Não sou baladeira, até gosto de pegar uma baladinha, ir em bar, mas se vc espera companhia pra sair muito à noite vai ficar desapontado/a comigo.
Uma das coisas que mais gosto é estar perto de pessoas que posso aprender algo sobre ou aprender junto. Gosto de pessoas apaixonadas por coisas que estudam ou vivem isso profundamente e que são abertas a discutir e trocar o que sabem.
Acredito que tem pessoas que querem ser descoladas na comunidade do CS mas não são. E tenho dificuldade de me aproximar destas pessoas.
PHILOSOPHY
"Tudo é uma questão de manter a mente quieta, a espinha ereta e o coração tranquilo "

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Viajei em 2009 por couch surfing nos EUA quando fiz 1 viagem de carro, e algumas cidades aqui no BR.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the amazing things I've ever seen was the Grand Canyon and the Yosemite National Park in the USA, and Iguaçu Falls in Brazil. These are places that show how human kind has a limit. Even if we try to do something wonderful, it won't nearly be as magical as an environment of thousands of years that is still alive. These places nature shows all its strength.
Doing a road trip around the east cost of USA was one of the most amazing things I've done.
I've danced in the rain in the middle of the street
I've seen a Polar bear and a starry night in the farm.
I've swun in crystal water.
