About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Give the world the love it needs

ABOUT ME

I think I am a genuine girl, and had discovered my interest for cultural exchange, languages and traveling after coming to Europe. Then, I would really like to meet some people around here (Europe or Brazil, everywhere!), or even find some travel company!

PHILOSOPHY

After having very unforgettable moments with friends around the world, having a nice family and understanding them as I should do, sharing my good moments with people around; I got to a point where what I feel is that what really matters in life is to love. I mean, LOVE. Do your best, give yourself to friendship, to the world. That's the only thing we'll take for the rest of our lives. What else makes me happy comes after, no doubt.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, surfing and meetings - not as often as I would like to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Brussels, September 2007. The city is really amazing, and it was a wonderful CS experience! Jean-Christophe hosted me and two friends, my first CS experience, and I can say that since then I was really amazed by this project!
Tabi hosted me at Edinburgh, and we had some Ceilidh/CS meeting as well, really nice.
Euan hosted me at Scotland, unforgetable adventures.
Chris hosted me in Dublin, good histories to tell.
=)
Meetings in Glasgow. :)
Surfed in Athens with Lena.
Had my best surfing in Florence with Ana and Luisa, unforgetable! :)
Frederic hosted me in Barcelona, and had a magic weekend with some other couchsurfers, lovely. :)
Julia and Thomas hosted me in Paris. :)
Hosted Jenn in Brasília, really nice!
Fast host to Samantha, wish it was longer..

Interests

Dancing, all kinds, love it.
Vegetarian, looking for new dishes. :)
People, opinions, conversations.
Traveling. Knowing new people, learning about different cultures and different weather, landscapes.
I like learning new languages too. German and French learner at the moment.
I am not the kind of person who loves to go to a club and dance the hole night (maybe sometimes, not really), unless it is salsa, samba, forró, balroom.
I like museums too - specially Dutch artists.
Visiting churches - in Europe and in The Northeast of Brazil they are WONDERFUL! I can spend a lot of time just seeing and enjoying it.
I love swimming too, sports.
I am also interested in everything about my studying branch, which is pharmacy.. So, I can spend hours talking about it. Love it! Research about virology, it IS something that really intrigues me. It's always on my mind.

Music, Movies, and Books

About music, MPB, Rock, jazz, salsa... I really could list a lot of singers and bands.
Movies, another very big list. The best, Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind. Always remember it, amazing!
Books, 99% brazilian romances. Machado de Assis and Érico Veríssimo are the ones I have read more frequently. But what I really like to read are scientific magazines, I love them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trip to Europe, really amazing! It is something I `ll carry as one of my best memories! The best memory: the return. See people you love after a long time is nothing to compare with, amazing. My best memory.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Forró, Gafieira. Dancing, always. Medicines, some diseases, mainly HIV pathogenesis. Portuguese. A bit of cooking...

Learn: Dancing, always. French, German, Spanish. Life, always. Improve my playing guitar skills. Vegetarian cooking. And virology, I love it.

Share: Vegetarian recipes. Smiles. Sports. And dancing again, why not?
