CURRENT MISSION
I want travel with truth by new truths!
ABOUT ME
I finished my master degree in Biology and now I´m spending some time in Europe. Here I intend to improve my english in Ireland and make contacts for my doctorate. In this next months, I wanna live for a while in Lisbon and I want to visit Porto (meet some relatives), Spain and Netherlands.
Travel and biology are my great passions so when I travel I´m not only looking for learning about new cultures but I also seek to enjoy the local nature.
In Brazil my friends use to say that I am kind, easygoing and a fun person that love to partying.
PHILOSOPHY
Carioca way of life! Don´t worry be happy!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I´m at the couchsurfing to meet people and exchange experiences!
I surfed in Stockholm, Copenhagen, Warsaw, Cork, Porto and Amsterdam. I had an amazing time in all these places because of my hosts. I also hosted people when I was living in Dublin and Lisbon.

2 - The hikking to the waterfall of "Segredo" in "Chapada dos Veadeiros", Goiais, Brazil;
3- Dive with pink dolphins at the amazing city of "Alter do Chão", Pará, Brazil;

5 - Go to Playa Escondida in Puerto Vallarta, México;
6 - See the grey whales in Puerto San Carlos, México
7 - See the marine elephants very closely in Patagonia, Argentina
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to share my life experiences with people and teach them more about brazilian culture and people, especially the good things that are not shared with the world by the media. I'm excited to learn more about different cultures. I can also share many good tips from Brazil and mainly from Rio de Janeiro.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A lot of stories with a nice beer or wine.
