About Me

I'm a very positive person who are always trying to find ways to improve myself and make world a better place for everyone. A Brazilian woman with a global soul, passionate for cultural diversity, connections, talking, languages, travelling, writing, photography, books, design, sustainability, colors and what else that make sense for a creative mind of a Gemini personality.

Be the change I want to see in the world is my personal mantra and I really believe that when we follow our hearts we can be brilliant and make a difference in the world, making it a better place. Social justice and equality moves me.

I have faith in people and I seek my inspiration in the stories of everyday people who built their way believing in themselves and in their ability to do more and better.

I'm vegetarian, spiritualist, soccer fan, dog person, healthy lifestyle, abstemic, no smoker, diurnal, ballroom samba (gafieira) practitioner, feminist, easy going, nice mood, peaceful, sweet addicted, spring/summer person, romantic, talkative, anxious, good driver.

I am concerned about my spiritual evolution because I believe that there's much more than we know in the world. That's why I try to be coherent with things I speak and do. I'm always trying to be more sustainable and more sensible to world's biggest issues. Empathy is one of my caracteristics. I want a meaningful life, full of colours, of cultural diversity, of people, arts, travels, dancing and experiences connected with my essence. Peace of mind is one of my main worries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in CouchSurfing to meet people, to enjoy diversity, to make friends and, of course, find nice places to stay on my trips.

Interests

I'm interested in amazing stories, love stories, veggie gastronomy, a delicious pizza, chocolate pies, sustainable cities, old cities, eastern alternative therapies, yoga, books, movies, TV series and dogs. I also love dancing, singing, talking for hours, writing, a nice walk during Spring, an açaí at a warm sunset in a tropical beach, the sun, a hot cup of tea watching a romantic movie under a heavy blanket on a rainny day, full moon, city lights during night, breathless paitings and everything that makes life happier. Enjoying life the most is the greatest interest of my life.
