About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep learning about the world

ABOUT ME

Hello everyone!!!

It´s about time I update my "about" section! I´m Nadja, I´m 33 years old and i come from a beach city in Brazil called Santos.
I always find it a bit hard to describe myself like this. I don´t know what to say and I don´t like the idea of promoting myself to anyone...

I was a flight attendant in Brazil for 2 years and now I have moved to Tampere, Finland. I live with my husband, our baby daughter and our cat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Recently I have joined a local CS group that I like a lot. I haven't been to many meetings, but I intend to keep participating, attending their gatherings and also helping people see the brazilian culture beyond the superficial first glance ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed in London and Liverpool in august 2009. Both were great experiences that taugh me a lot. Both on what to expect , do and what not to do!

I have hosted a few people in the apartment I lived with my ex boyfriend a few years ago (and the year before going to Europe). All times it went great! They are not in couchsurfing, I met them online elsewhere. But if requested I could ask for their e-mails so you can check how things are here ;)
I think this is what i find most amazing, we are able to learn from each experience.

Interests

There are many things I like doing. I love writting, at the moment I'm writting a novel; I love reading all kinds of books; I love learning new languages, though knowing english well makes it harder to learn anything else because it is always confortable using the languages you know best.

I love also all kinds of music, such as The Beatles (I even went to Liverpool to see where they started); local brazilian music ( specially Los Hermanos) and I'm incredibly fond of foreign music, in all other languages!
