"I'm not in Brazil, travelling around the world up to 2020"

Hello CS friends!

I'm 31 years old girl who decided take two years off to travell and prove to herself that anything is possible.

I've spent the last 12 years living in the amazing Rio de Janeiro city, working 44h/week, feeling that I was not acctually enjoying the city and neither having time for myself. Then I realized I was not happy enought in my work but couldn't choose a diferente job for me. That’s why I decided to take some time off and focus on new experiences.

My idea is to be a slow traveller, with time to know people, learn about local cultures, share my experiences and donate my time for good causes.

I love doing things for the first time, like visit a new place or eat new food.

I’m totally open minded for new flavours. I can eat everything, maybe not yet prepared for too spicy food but can try anything. I believe food unite people and creat relations.

My journey starts in China and goes to South East Asia, South, East and North Africa, a little bit of Middle East and finally Latin America (Mexico and below).

Music, Movies, and Books

Being Brazilian I love our Samba and Bossa Nova but I listen more classic Rock.

Books are always good company, I enjoy Reading classical literature but also some adventure and scientific fiction.

Nowadays I’m more fan of TV series than movies. I’m watching Silicon Valley, GOT, Better Call Saul, Master of None, Black Mirror, The Big Bang Theory, Stranger Things, Westworld, Outlander, Mr. Robot, House of Cards, Masterchef Brasil, Mind Hunter, The Crown...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job (7 years working) in an international company to travel.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe I have more to learn than to teach.

I want to experience normal life in every country, I can be a good company for shopping, help going on the supermarket, cooking, hang out for dinner, coffee or drinks.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Talk about Brazil, teach Brazilian food, drinks, dance, arts, culture.
