About Me

I'm originally from Brasília, Brazil, and I studied Biotechnology at the University of Brasília (UnB). In August 2015 I moved to Pittsburg, KS, for 1 year as an exchange student for the Science without Borders program (Brazilian Scholarship) at Pittsburg State University. Finished my exchange in Kansas and did an internship in Chicago during Summer. Since I came to the US I decided to try to visit all places I could with my current time and budget, and luckily I have been in more than 25 states so far. Want to travel all over the country and meet new people and share travel stories :) My biggest goal in a relatively short time is to graduate in the Environmental Health field. My biggest goal is to move to somewhere where I can achieve that dream and also have the best possible life conditions. I would love to travel to all Continents and meet locals and have the most exotic experiences with food, music and anything that a different culture could allow me to live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided to Couchsurf because it is a great way to meet new people and share new stories everyday. It's a nice way to visit new places when possible and see how different and how similar we can all be, even living in completely different countries and cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love Mumford and Sons, Coldplay, Jason Mraz, Justin Timberlake. My favorite book is Game of Thrones. I love series more than movies, and currently I just watched and recommend The Leftovers. I also like Game of Thrones, Marco Polo, The Killing, Narcos, The Office.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

During spring break (US 2016) I drove 2800 miles in 7 days, crossed 11 states and had one of the best experiences of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a couch surfer I can totally teach people how to cook Brazilian dishes and some of the language and am very open minded, so I would be in to any adventure. I would love to learn more about local cultures, foods and music, try to expand even more my view about people and life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share all my Brazilian enthusiasm, my home stories and my awful cooking skills. I can also share lots of laughs.
