Hello! I’m a Brazilian and Mexican bookworm looking for adventure! I was formerly a D2 track and field athlete (long jump, triple jump) and now I’m in the city for work. I’m passionate about technology, cooking, sharing stories, and anything science fiction!🤓🥳

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A friend told me that this was a great site to meet locals who knew plenty about the city and since I can be more introverted when around new people, living at international hostels and following their events wasn’t the best fit. I’d love to share more experiences with people in San Francisco!

I’m back in SF after leaving for a while. I just got transferred to work in downtown until accepting an internship in Cupertino in January. I’m looking for someone who has some availability through early December (12/14) until I’m able to find a temporary sublet!

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m currently reading One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez (in Spanish) which is an epic based in magical fantasy. As someone who is also studying biomedical engineering, I’ve enjoyed watching sci fi movies such as Otherlife (on Netflix)!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I taught English for 3 months in Uruguay at a catholic orphanage! I had two classes 2nd grade and 5th grade and it was wonderful!🥰

Teach, Learn, Share

I’d definitely be willing to teach someone Spanish, how to be a wiz at chess and maybe more that I’m blanking on as I’m writing this profile.

I’d love to learn more about coding in react JavaScript, vegan/vegetarian friendly recipes, and practicing my Portuguese since I’ve been out of practice for so long!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my Apple employee discount on products until the end of the year! 😜
