CURRENT MISSION
See the world before I die!
ABOUT ME
Since I was a little girl my biggest wish was to travel and see the world. I finally made it for the first time when I was 19, spending a year in Denmark and then moving to London for another 2 and a half years. Back in Brazil, when I was studying International Relations I got the oportunitty to study for a term at Lund University, in Sweden, and that's when I've started using couchsurfing. I've been hosted a few times and it's always been a great experience, with awesome people. I've seen a lot of Europe and a little of Brasil, but the desire to see new places only grows the more you travel.
PHILOSOPHY
To learn the most of life, leave a positive mark to everyone I meet, and try to make a little difference.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been hosted a few times, a while ago. I haven't been able to host yet where I currently live, but soon I'll be moving and hope to arrange a couch there for my couchsurfing guests!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's given me the opportunity to experience the places I was visiting from a whole new perspective, getting to know locals, making friends, visiting interesting non-tourist spots...
Interests
I love dancing and my personal goal is to become a skilled photographer someday. I am also interested in foreign affairs, although it's been a while since I graduated and stopped studying it seriously.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like watching old classics, some of my favourites are Hithcock's and Chaplin's. But I like the new ones too, and I quite like when a movie is so weird that you can hardly understand it, as long as there is a sense to it after all, like Magnolia or Mulholland drive. As for music, I'm very eclectic, there are very few things I don't like.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hang gliding... Ok, it may not seem so amazing if you are not shit scared of heights like me!
Teach, Learn, Share
Not sure what I can teach, I'm not really that good in anything special, but I can sure speak good Portuguese in case you are interested :P I know some salsa and samba moves too. And I can suggest some nice Brazilian music and movies if you tell me what are the best ones in your country as well :)
Countries I’ve Lived In
Denmark, Sweden, United Kingdom
