Hey! My name is Nathalia and I'm a Brazilian Journalism student currently living in China! I already lived in Curaçao, Portugal and Hungary before. After exploring a bit of America and Europe, that's time to see Asia! I`m completely in love with traveling, meeting new people, new places and cultures! For me, the experiences that we live make us who we are, and that's why I'm always opened to new adventures! Hope we meet someday, somewhere :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that traveling involves getting to know not just the touristic points, but also the way that local people live, work, and enjoy cities. That's why I think that couchsurfing can offer you a different traveling perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge Harry Potter fan! Love all the movies and books (my favorite is the third one!) and if you like it too, we are already friends! Haha
My favorite movie is The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but I also like The Dead Poetry's Society, Inception, The Pursuit of Happiness.
I love listening to music and I'm always opened to discover new singers and bands. Also, I have different music moments :) now I'm listening to Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, Coldplay, U2, Oasis, and some brazilian singers like Tiago Iorc, Armandinho, Anavitória, Legião Urbana, Capital Inicial, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did my first exchange when I was 17 to a country that I'd never heard about before (Curaçao).
Afterwards, I moved to Portugal with 19 years old and travelled alone to 13 different countries in Europe.
In the end of my time in Europe I went to Hungary teach english to kids for one month!
Then, six months after coming back to Brazil I embraced a new adventure - coming to China without knowing a single word in chinese.
I`ve worked for AIESEC for a year and a half, sending brazilian students to social exchanges all over.
