About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know the world (and the people in it)!

ABOUT ME

I would say easygoing, eager to meet people and the stories they have to share, wanderlust, in love with biology and nature, trying my best to trust in life and enjoy every single moment that is given to me.

PHILOSOPHY

"Always trust in life. It is vast, unpredictable and tremendously beautiful!"
"Don't mourn because it's over, smile because it happened!"
"Not all those who wander are lost"

In general: Be positive, help others and ask for help whenever needed, trust people and trust life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met several amazing people and lived great moments!
Soon after I started going to cs events and communicating to visitors through the website I met many people from absolutely everywhere! It's like I've being travelling, because every time I meet someone I feel like I get to know a bit of the place that person is from. Places across the world became more and more familiar, and languages I never thought of became very interesting! But besides this amazing cultural exchange, CS helps you trust in people. Helps you see the bright side of any situation, and to realize that there is always something to teach and learn to/from someone else. Couchsurfing is a project that I highly recommend to everyone!

Interests

I'm interested in travelling, in meeting new people and their culture, in biology and science in general, in sports (specially hiking, swimming and frisbee), in music, art, dance and all other ways humans found to express their feelings.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music? All of them that make me feel good.
Books? Beauvoir, Kundera and Chödrön are the ones I'm reading at the moment :) Besides these ones: Darwin's Dangerous Idea, The Story of Stuff, The Little Princess, Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, Game of Thrones, Glass Castle, I am Malala, A Thousand Splendid Suns, Kite Catcher, The Bookseller of Cabul etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing thing seen? The giant sequoias in Nevada (USA) and the beautiful coral reefs of Brazil are amazing things I've seen. Also the Christmas lights of New York and the skyline of San Francisco.
Amazing thing done? Trying to freed myself of all kinds of prejudice. It's an everyday exercise ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm currently learning German, but I'm always in love with new languages.
I'm also learning new vegetarian recipes! If you feel like teaching me any that would be great!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My stories and my ideologies are some of the things I can share with you :) I love talking to people and getting to know their opinions.
