I’m a Brazilian girl who wants to discover the world hahahaa
I’m an open mind person, passionate about seeing the world and collecting memories. I really love meeting people from different places and make good friends wherever I go. I am very spontaneous and I like to talk about everything and also to know the “real” places. I want to know the world, I want to meet people, I want to live everything. That’s my dream.
I am a lawyer in Brazil, I study criminal sciences. But I leave my career behind to live as a backpacker. I’m currently working with influencer marketing for a mobile app, which allows me to work from wherever I am, which is why I can travel right now. I couldn't miss this opportunity.
But I’m also a a veryyy low budget travel, so I can’t give you any kind of financial support, unfortunately.
I’m traveling over Asia right now and I want to go to a lot of places before go back to my city. And of course, make a lot of friends.

My Instagram is @rayssapontarolo if you wanna meet me a little :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, CS appeared as the answer to my dreams. I've always enjoyed getting to know the world beyond tourism, I've enjoyed meeting real people, living real lives. I like to leave friendships wherever I go, I am a person very passionate about life and I want to live intensely. CS helps me in this mission, cause I’m always doing new friends on the hangouts and when I go to some new place.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love meeting new artists, singers and writers, but I just love Sidney Sheldon's books.
I'm Potterhead, passionate about the MCU (Marvel) and action movies. Also I’m into electronic music and festivals. I'm very eclectic but I hope to know regional music when I travel too, and also present some Brazilian music that I bet no one knows! I like to dance and go out to places with music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking alone in Brazil. A lot of volunteers. Record a music. And now I want to know Europe and Asia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Portuguese, I can cook, especially Brazilian food (I love to cook) and help with whatever is needed. I work remotely but I have plenty of free time to help with whatever is needed.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Brazilian food, experiences, music, I can do whatever they need. I'm also learning to read gypsy deck and I can read for you if you like those things.
