ABOUT ME

I'm a Brasilian woman, who love Sports and days activities.
I love to discover cityes by walking around for hours and hours.
I love to know places that i've heard about ou see in films, just to know how they are in real.
This discribes a lot what I think about travelling:
"... A man needs to travel. On his own, not through histories, images, books or tv. He needs to travel because of himself, with his eyes and feet, to understand what is his. For one day to plant his own trees and give them value. To know the cold to enjoy the heat. And the opposite. To feel the distance and the lack of shelter so as to feel good under his own roof. A man needs to travel to places he doesn't know to break this arrogance that makes us see the world as we imagine, and not just how it is or how it can be; that makes us teachers and experts about things we haven't seen, while we should be students and just go seeing". ("Endless sea"- Amyr Klink)

And the expirience of hosting and couching people just make this expiriences even better!

I love to meet new people, to know their culture and also to share mine.
I'm good at cooking and like to share Brasilian recipes with everyone.
I also like to tell people about my country, because I want to share that Brazil is much more then Football, Carnaval and Samba (hahahaha)

Finally, I would say that I'm friendly and positive. :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe that the respect came with the knowing. So, if people know and undestand cultures the World would be a better place, probably more peacefull.
By couching or hosting a person you also host his/her culture and all his/her background, witch will interfere in your culture and life too. In this way, I believe that this kind of social network improves how people face the diferences and the world in general.

Interests

Sports are my real love. I like to run and I used to do Triathlon. That's why i'm a sport teacher and now i'm studing for my master degree in the area of the physical activity.
Travelling is my second love and I really appreciate to know new things from differents parts of the world. I really hope to know the 5 continents and the 7 seas before I die.
I like to taste new flavours, to learn new words in diferent languages, to fell new sensations and meet new people every day of my life.
I really believe that everyone has something to teach us, as we always have something to teach someone! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love radical sports. Once I've done bungee jump and also para-shooting. There is another sport in Brazil witch is called "Asa Delta" that you jump from a high place and just plane with a special equipament with no motor. It's amazing... seems that you are really flying.

I am not sure if this is amazing, but everyone stares to me when I say that I travel alone everywhere. Once I went to Turkey and made a lot of good friends. In 2015, I went to Italy and did all my trip by hitchinking and CS, and it was just awesome! When you travel alone you are never really alone! ;D

Teach, Learn, Share

As I'm a sport lover and a sport teacher, i'm good at planning workouts and running programs.
But i also like to tell people about my country and specially about the south of Brazil, witch is not so popular as Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and the beachs from the Northest.
I like to share my travelling expirieces too!
