About Me

Hi! I am a Portuguese teacher, mother of a beautiful little girl, surfer, hiking enthusiast, and love to talk about music, art, literature, and movies. I love to travel, get to know the local culture, make new friends and try new cuisines. This is my first time using Couchsurfing. I've already traveled a lot in Brazil, now I'm going to get to know other countries. I am going to Europe to study in London and I want to experience and meet amazing people and places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people different from me and meet new international friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My Brazillian road trip in 2017. (Ceará to Rio de Janeiro)
My Brazillian road trip in 2016. (Ceará to Belém)
I witnessed one of Brazil's recent historic moments, Lula's investiture as president in Brasília.
I paddled a long board to a shipwreck in my hometown, it was a few miles of swimming to the shipwreck, but it was an amazing experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

The Brazilian culture! I love to cook, I can make several typical Brazilian dishes like feijoada, bolinho de baculhau, pastel, baião de dois or canjica. The Brazilian culture is very rich in music, literature, art and gastronomy, it would be a great pleasure to share it with you.
