I'd describe myself as optimistic, curious and grateful :) I was born and grew up in Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. As a child, I lived in England for 3 years and since then I've always believed in the power of cross-cultural experiences. I've got a degree in business management and I have my own educational project, focused on helping kids to develop soft skills. I love to travel and right now I'm really looking forward to getting out of my comfort zone :) love meeting new people, getting to know them and their cultures and love to tell people about Brazil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is really new to me and it amazed me from the very first time I heard about it. How is it that people all over the world offer their homes just to get to know different people? I think this is so powerful and it really does say a lot about how we can deal with the world's problems that we're now facing
