My name is Stephanie, I am 21 years old. I was born in Sao Paulo, but I grew up in a city in the South of Brazil called Curitiba. Im currently studying International Relations at the University Erfurt in Germany. I love to know more about other cultures and also share my culture with other people. I am a big fan of music and travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Doing couchsurfing is a great way to meet new people and also learn more about the culture from the place I am visiting.

Music, Movies, and Books

Indie Rock is my favorite genre, but I hear pretty much about anything from hip hop to techno. I love a lot of movies, but within my top 3 are "Submarine", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", "Donny Darko".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the best experiences that I had with cultural exchange was when I did an school exchange for five months in Cologne, Germany. I stayed with a host family, with whom I still have contact and get a lot of support, especially when I decided to study in Germany. I learnt a lot from them and they learnt a lot from me and I also grew with this experience, because I became a more tolerant person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

-Deep conversations about the meaning of life (when pertinent)
-Introduce great music
-Knowlegde on pop culture
