About Me

I'm a tattoo artist and illustrator from São Paulo living in London since 2012
I'm very bad at writing bios and selling myself but I really enjoy talking in person, I'm also a great listener, I think

I live with my sister and we're both artists, I do tattoos and she does illustrations.

I'm a Taurus, not sure if you believe in that but I find it hauntingly accurate, that is: sleeping and eating are my favourite things.
Both me and my sister are good cooks, I'm obsessed with competition tv shows like MasterChef, Bake Off, Drag Race, Ink Master and even Love Island.
I work at a tattoo shop three days a week and sometimes I dogsit, but if you’re allergic to dogs I’ll make sure I don’t book any dogs for when you come. I guess you can't have just one job if you want to live in London (crying internally)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sounds like a good experience, probably makes the trip a bit more exciting?

Interests

I love films, food, dogs, cats and naps and people always get a bit surprised to know I'm a bit of a gym freak.
