I'm a curious Brazilian, which not only means I love hearing other people's stories but whenever I visit a new place, I tend to ignore the little signs saying 'Do Not Touch'. (There's a nonspoken rule in Brazil that you need to touch things you haven't seen before, otherwise it doesn't feel you've been there). I'm willing to experience different cultures, meet new people, learn other languages and get a new perspective on the world. If Dora The Explorer can do it all, being merely a 5 years-old polyglot, I shall too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It seems like a great opportunity to meet people who are willing to exchange their knowledge and generosity with other adventurous people from diverse backgrounds carrying different life experiences.

Interests

I love photography, learning new languages and activism. Filmmaking and acting are also a long term passion but never really had the opportunity to develop, so if you're into any of these and are willing to teach/practice, I'm more than happy to be your loyal disciple.

Music, Movies, and Books

I find it hard to list favourite things. My music taste goes from Pop divas, through Bossa Nova (if you only know The Girl from Ipanema, you can check out some of the classics from Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes while you cook - your kitchen time will never be the same), some R&B, electronica/downtempo to some mild Hip Hop, like Frank Ocean. But then again, who doesn't like Frank Ocean?!

As for movies, no specific genre but anything well thought is worth it.

And anything with Meryl Streep, thanks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had the opportunity to create a charity calendar project and all the money raised went towards supporting kids with cancer and their families.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Happy to share a good conversation, limited knowledge in photography and the choreography of Single Ladies. Oh-Oh-Oh!
