CURRENT MISSION

I'm engaged in searching ways to fight against facism and to create situations to allow creaticism and collective environments.

ABOUT ME

I never stop... sometimes it isn't easy. There's no choice, so I try to potentiate myself and others letting the movements take me away. I don't think about life as an capitalist enterprise of matirial sucess. I think about life as an bizarre, sometimes cruel, but beatiful experience. And I try to live with rebel dignity.

PHILOSOPHY
I always want to live life in its deepest meanings... not staying in the superficialities of things. I'm engaged in perceiving every moment as a moment where something dies and something lives... And I try to search for relations that potentiate me and others. I do not believe in morality, and my ethics envolve not to step in the foot of the others. I believe that its necessary to create new ways of living... I believe in order to do so its necessary to recreate the also the body, in order to recreate the social policial choreography.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I intent to create spaces for encounters... Recieve people form diferent parts of the world and also travel and meet diferent people, oppening a hole new perspective of the knew places I met.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I entered couch through Fernando Siveiro. We travelled together through Mexico, and in the last days of our trip we used Couch and it was amazing... Latter on I started to receive a lot of diferent couchsurfers in my home in Brazil, at a point that my house became a collective house.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm engaged in a activist art project in the brazilian prision system... I work with a gorup of young woman and LGBTQ+ people in the pheriphery of my city, teaching dance merged with boxing, in a technique that is at the same time self-defense and self-expression...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really passionate about education. Being a teacher may be the thing that I need most in life, since I feel it is the most revolutionary action that I can offer.
Beside that, I'm always open to teach and learn different ways of dealing with life and different techniques of art and other stuff, in order to amplify the possibilities of reaction to the challenges of existence...

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can talk... a lot... I like to share my points of view as a latin-american woman that is really engaged in complex social structures of my reality. I can also exchange a lot of different cultural references... not only contemporary art ones, but traditional brazilian ones, and also latin-american, and specially brazilian music.
I'll be glad to cook, I do really simple but good food...
