Hello world!
my name is Nadjmah Cordeiro (don't worry, we'll practice the pronounciation when we'll meet) and i'm a 21 year old danish girl! My family comes from Brazil and Iraq, so that's why I'm not as pale as a normal dane ;) I really love dancing, having fun and meeting new people, and love having an active lifestyle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have met some couchsurfers in my life, and they all shared positive experiences with the concept. I really like the thought of being introduced to a country the way the local people perceive it, and enjoy meeting new people along the way. I suppose it's a more intimate way to travel and make new friends at new places!
I've also tried being with a host family for some time in Brazil, so it is not a completely new experience for me :)

Interests

I really enjoy dancing, and havde been attending samba for some years now. Otherwise, I find all sorts of arts intriguing - mostly the modern genres from the early 1900's. I can spend hours googling stuff, for some strange reason, like i have spent almost a whole weekend researching about the country Suriname. And 4 years researching Korean Culture. Kind of dorky.
