About Me

I graduated in International Relations, La Salle University 2016/2. Currently, I am volunteer at AIESEC Porto Alegre and I'm studying Japanese.

I have three lovely cats: Terry, Bibi and Chris. One of my favourite things is to read, I have a lot of books (more than I can read). I love traveling and cooking and for me they are interconnected.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, I love traveling and meeting people. I worked in a hostel for two years and I often go back to work there because I miss it, it's like my second home. I hope to get to know other cultures and live new *amazing* experiences.
