My name is Raphaela and I am a Brasilian. I am really interested in languages and arts.I used to do ballet classes back in Brasil , I am learning to draw and to play the flute . I dont really know what to say here. I live with my fiance ( also Brazilian ). We both study literature at USP - he studies english literature and I study Italian literature. I love cats - used to have 5. But I love animals - never knew if I wanted to become a Vet or to study something in this humanistic areas. I´m kind of a vegetarian ( used to be - nowadays I eat fish sometimes ) . I like to cook, to travel, to learn things, I am interested in all areas of studies even though Math can be really hard for me . I was born and raised in a small town but I moved to São Paulo a few years ago to study.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am in Italy with my fiancee to study but we also want to travel and meet new friends around the world. We hope to host as soons as we go back to Brasil. I think is a nice way to make friends and share a little bit of our culture and maybe of our cooking , our music and everything that we can share.
