About Me

I'm a Brazilian-German researcher and a freelancer interpreter living in Münster since 2010. I love getting in touch with new cultures and people with different backgrounds. Also, I do have a weakness for foreign languages and exotic cuisines :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is just an outstanding way to really get in touch with people from totally different backgrounds. This exchange of cultures is just priceless!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am totally passionate about classical music, specially in love with the strings. I'm also a huge fan of science fiction and alternative movie productions. It's quite hard to say which are my favorite books, but I can say the books of Bertolt Brecht are very high on my list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is very challenging to talk about ourselves, but I guess the thing I'm most proud of myself is that I left literally everything behind to pursue my goals. Despite all the sacrifices, it was the most amazing thing that I've done. Only my couchsurfers are going to get to know more about this ;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Depending on my schedule, I teach to cook Brazilian dishes and also how to make German and Brazilian drinks, such as caipirinha and wallpaper ;-)
