About Me

****I am travelling for a couple of months so I am not able to receive anyone at the moment. ***

I consider myself a very shy person but at the same time, I am very communicative. I ’m also always open to know new people, new places and their history. For me, that's the best part of travel.

I am addicted to History, by the way! I can spend hours and hours in a Museum, or Castles, or just walking around trying to discover new places.

Food and drinks are some of my passions. I really like to go out and try new foods and drinks. I can have a beer or a wine, depends on the moment and the place. Normally if it is too cold a prefer wine. Hehe.

I consider myself an open mind person but with strong values. I like to think that I do my part to make the world a better place for all of us.

My house is always open for those who want to see the city from another perspective and would like to know about another culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why not? =)Couchsurfing is the perfect opportunity to really understand other cultures and see the cities from a completely different perspective.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow! I guess I done a few amazing things but they seem amazing to me... :) I changed my entire career from a Portuguese teacher to an Account Supervisor in an Advertising agency. I quit my job when I wasn't happy anymore and moved to London, I lived in another city in Brazil (I am natural from Rio and I was living in SP)... I guess I am always trying to find out what makes me happy, what my dreams are.
