About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Use my creative talents to make my life and other people's lives better. Meet different people from different cultures and help the poor.

ABOUT ME

I and my husband, Samuel, are a happy and easygoing couple. We have a baby girl who is very smart. :)

We don't smoke nor drink. I'm a bit workaholic while he is more relaxed.

He's a journalist and I'm a videomaker. I both work at Fundação Cecierj - a government foundation on Distance Learning Education and Scientific Communication. He is trying a shift in his career to a administrative one.

I love acting, but there's a long time I don't perform proffessionally. My husband loves music, I love dancing. We like to study and do researches. We love our family, our house, our friends and also travelling. I think he has a gift on talking to unknown people. We also like going to the Church.

PHILOSOPHY

Do your part and know that God's in control.

When I do or say something, I'used to ask myself if I would like the other do/say that same thing to me.

There's always a sweet way to say hard things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a nice and cheap way of travelling. We get to know people from other cultures, are helped, help others and have fun together.
