Born in Brasil and raised in Miami by a Brazilian mom and an Irish dad. I speak fluent Portuguese and conversational Spanish! Love learning about different cultures! Having a background in the performing arts, I

now reside in Los Angeles living the Actress / Artist life! Before LA, I lived in Brasil (as a baby), Miami, New York, and Philadelphia.

I have had a million different day jobs, and I currently teach a HIIT Workout Class and also work for an eBay company as an executive assistant when I'm not acting.
In my free time, I'm always out and about at FREE events around town! There are so many fun free things to do & my reputation among friends is that if there's a fun, free event, they'll find me there!

Quick fun facts about me:
-fluent Portuguese and conversational Spanish
-I get the hiccups everyday
-Am an ordained minister bc I officiated my friends' wedding
-Am top 0.5% of Pitbull’s Listeners on Spotify

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've always wanted to couchsurf because I love community! I've been fortunate to have made friends all over the world through travelling and hostels! And learning about a new country from a local is unbeatable! There's an innate understanding and pride for one's own city you can only get a glimpse of through a local's eyes. I love having visitors in my city: I've got googledocs ready to go for what to do with my guests! And it varies too -- a trip for my mom visiting will be different than my best friend from university, or my friend who is visiting with her partner and child! Yes I love travelling to see a different physical place, but so often my favorite travel memories --- and the ones that STICK -- are about the people I've met along the way :)

兴趣

Love being outdoors in nature /beach/ and also just outdoors in the city! Parks, town block parties, plazas, outdoor concerts and events!
