About Me

I am a feminist and most recently a PADI Open Water Diver. I am currently studying a Masters in Human Rights at the University of Manchester, but I have majored in Journalism and worked as a journalist for a few years.

I smile all the time, but I love to cry watching drama series and movies. I love making new friends, but I'm a bit shy too. I love journalism and travelling because both activities take me out of my confort zone to have some amazing new experiences.

A few years ago I have put together my two passions and got a freelance job writing for a travel blog, what I still do, so I have many tips from São Paulo and other places to share with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been traveling since I was 2 years old. My parents' passion is travelling and as they've always taken me along, it became my passion too.

Through all this time, what I've learned is that people are the best thing anywhere we go.

Interests

I am a very curious person and love to know a bit of everything. If you have any hobby or knowledge that you'd like to share, I'll love to hear all about it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm always with a book. I love to read brazilian literature, romances and books about journalism and human rights.

I listen to almost everything really, but mostly pop and rock.

I really fancy drama movies, but also documentaries and some comedy and romance too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteered teaching Portuguese and Communication to people who didn't have access to good education.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I love the most is to hear people's stories and to be able to tell some things about me as well so we can create a conexion. If we could do thiswhile cooking something or over drinks somewhere, better.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share experiences, moments, laughter, my food maybe... I'm looking to meet some nice people, make friends that I can take to life and then, if someday you'll come to Brazil I can definitely show you around.
