Overview
About Me
At the moment I'm living in Recife, where I just came back after two years out ofmy beloved Brazil. I came here to lead a simple life, based on balance between its different aspects. I meditate, try to eat healthy and vegetarian, and I'm interested in herbs and fitology. My aim is to be self-sustainable in a couple of years and to become a better person everyday. I'm working on my weak points and that is letting me grow.
I am a person full of ideas, passion and energy. Energy which I like to share! I love joking, telling the stories and making people laugh. Taking quick decisions is easy for me, and I am not afraid to leave my comfort zone.
My casual way of travelling is hitch-hiking and this is how I travelled through almost all Brazil and South America. I will be more than happy to share with you some tips and interesting places to go. The most of all I'm interested in getting into the culture, meeting customs and getting familiar with their background and where they derriver from. I'm a specialist of seeing things which I cannot see while going for a fixed trip. I learned how to be independent and how to be grateful for what I already have.
Traveling for me is living day by day, in the present. Not in the past and not in the future.
My attitude to life would describe as selfawarness. The most important thing is just to feel good with yourself and be proud of who you are. Doing things which make you happy and beliving that everything is exactly like it should be. It doesn't matter what people say about you, because the only person to know the truth is YOU. Do your best, do good things, be greatful and it will come back to you when you need it the most.
If our paths will cross, I will be glad if you would spend time to share with me the most important things you have learned so far in your life (I can do the same for you). Everybody has some motivating experience to share, and using this knowledge simply makes life easier and more joyful.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Nothing gives you better opportunity than meeting up with locals and getting to know things from them. I love to share and listen to all kind of stories, but especially these from the travels and spiritual growth.
I hosted a couple of times and i was hosted as well. Only great experience.
My CS aim is to equalize the good i have received while travelling (if I'm ever able to do that...).
OBS: I am tired of people who are looking for fee place to sleep. I am here for the culture exchange and meeting some cool people, who are here FOR THE SAME REASON, so I will consider your request if I know you actually read my profile and you want to live this cultural exchange. Let me know about this by referring to something what we have in common or by a reason why you would like us to meet.
OBS: Estou cansada de responder para as pessoas que procuram so lugar para dormir de graca. Estou aqui para troca cultural e para conhecer as pessoas legais, que participam para.mesma causa. Entao vou so considerar seu pedido quando vou perceber que voce lei meu perfil e que voce tambem quere viver essa troca cultural. Deixa me saber disso pela referenciar a algo que temos em comum ou dizendo porque voce queria que nos encontramos.
I have a small room with a mattress, especially for you, my dear CS guest! Surely I can cook something for you and if you'd like I can show you some edible plants which grow around - we can prepare something delicious from them, as well as make a tea. I try to live as modest as possible, but I will be happy to show you that style and maybe we give each other some inspiration!
