Currently mainly based in Rio in an ancient radio of Vidigal favela turned into a guest house : @ casagaiavidigal
With room rent money I manage to finance a cultural association project, since I play music and act as well. If you would like to help us grow volunteering here, I can host you for free, if you are just a traveller, and if I have free rooms, maybe I can as well, but only if there is an airbnb request I may ask you to go, because I need the money to build my dream, hope you get it ;)

.. my original description was that ..

I love to connect, to dance (even being bad), original conversations or pretty much anything that can create genuine raw moments.
I graduated in human rights and humanitarian action and am currently working on developing an environmental and women rights centered association in an island near Rio.
I tend to disconnect from human contact sometimes, especially if I am travelling.
But then I miss people so I come back.
People say I smile a lot.
I like tea.
I like to be in nature, to swim in the ocean, to lay on the sand under the sun, to sing in my bath, dogs and cats, good smells, unplanned stuff...
