Hi, I'm Stef and I'm a human being, daughter, sister, woman, book-music-nature lover, Forró dancer, kickboxer, student, traveller and passionate healthy food eater. I'm open-minded, tolerant, curious and humorous and I would describe myself as a person who is in a balance of being introvert and extrovert.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People around the world have more in common than they probably realize. I like to be on a journey experiencing similarities and differences and the great value of it.

Interests

I love travelling and experiencing new cultures with all its traditions and habits. I have a passion for hiking and being in nature, observing animals, vegetation and the moon at night. Some month ago I've started doing kickboxing after years of doing yoga. I like the balance of it :) And I found a new passion in dancing Forró, a brazilian dance, some month ago.
I would describe myself as a passionate eater of healthy food and I like cooking with friends because of sharing experiences and knowledge.
I really like studying Social work because of the variety of it. During my study I've evolved my interest for nonviolent communication, psychoanalysis and political education of people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Truman Capote and Woody Allen are my real heroes.
I'm probably the only person on this planet who hasn't seen the Lord of the Rings so far. ;)
I love listening to music. Almost every kind of music... from Beethoven to Eminem, from African Dancehall to German Hip Hop, from Swedish Pop to English Rock Music... currently listening to Forró music mostly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking and climbing in Tenerife's mountains with my Birkenstock sandals.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been learning to dance Forró while having regular workshops and going to festivals. And I'm in a process of learning sewing my own clothes, especially skirts and dresses. That's why I'm always interested in going to markets to buy colourful fabrics.
