Overview
About Me
I'm a very tiny girl, passionate about traveling and making friends. I've been traveling alone since the age of 15 when I went living abroad in Nantes, France. After that I couldn't stop myself anymore and now I currently live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I try traveling at least twice a year. My dream is to have a job that would allow me to be always on the road and never have to bother about settling in one place. Life would never get boring!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've always travelled by myself and I am a very chatty, interactive person. Also, I'm all about getting deep into the culture and knowing the people from the places I visit. What better way to do that than couchsurfing?
Interests
I love drinking loads of coffee, eating, cooking, reading and taking pictures! I have a professional camera with which I walk around to everywhere I go. I know that nowadays people use their phones, but I am a very nostalgic person and I just love the feeling of seeing the world through lenses.

Music, Movies, and Books
That list changes every single day and it really depends on my mood. But I am definitely a big fan of the 80's songs and bands. I absolutely love Bon Jovi and AC/DC. Those two I listen every single day.
Movies.. Well, I love old movies too. When I was young I used to love Flash Dance, Top Gun, Chocolate, Pulp Fiction and it goes on.. But recently I've been watching over and over again movies like eat pray love. I know it's very girly but I just love the part where Julia Robert goes to Rome and lots of spaghetti. I always picture myself doing that!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I haven't jumped from a high building, swam with sharks or went to Bali. Yet. But I have this bucketlist of amazing things that I wanna do. So far, I could say I've been to amazing places and made awesome friends all over the world. If I need a couch to spend the night I'd have one in the following countries:
Portugal
Spain
NYC
France
Argentina
Uruguay
That really amazes me! I mean, look at the possibilities! The world has just gotten smaller.
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to teach Portuguese and English to interested people. French is the language of my heart, can speak, can read, can listen but can't write - which is a shame.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share with hosts some of my traveling stories, a bit of Portuguese for those who are interested, some cooking! Yummy :) And most of all, my dreams!
