Born in Brazil, raised in Rio de Janeiro but at the moment Lisbon is my home. I hosted before but recently my boyfriend and I decided to host couchsurfers together, looking for some interesting/fun/weird people to share a bit of our lives with and entertain us. We are both architects so we can be super boring sometimes. Please also read 'My home' tab. We don't accept more than 1 guest and also last-minute requests.

Besides working as an architect I enjoy spending my free time in music concerts, theater, art galleries, hiking outdoor/nature, doing yoga, camping, watching movies/series, eating well, being warm, and having interesting chats with a cold beer. I also enjoy doing handmade stuff in general, used to draw/paint, have done a few carpentry works, sawing, and ceramics.

I'm not a health freak (yet), I can eat frozen food and drink coke sometimes, but I enjoy eating quality food, organic whenever is po$$ible, and taking care of my body, mentally and physically. I care about the planet and I'm a newbie vegetarian for the past 4 years :). I also can consider myself a feminist, a science believer, and a psychology enthusiast.

Love traveling and changing perspectives through this movement. I enjoy trying to understand cities in a social and urbanistic way and I usually try to escape the tourist stuff. I don't like crowded places and when I'm traveling I rather just walk around, have some good local food, visit the supermarket and connect with people in a slower rhythm.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I'm on Couchsurfing because with previous experiences I had (both hosting and being a host), I got a really special and rare feeling that the world is small and we are all here together, looking for the same things, wanting to feel connected. I meet inspiring people through Couchsurfing, and learned new things in each meeting I had. That's priceless and is why I'm here.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

*MOVIES*
One of the things I most enjoy is watching a good movie. Those are some of my favorite directors:
Hilton Lacerda | Lars von Trier | Sofia Coppola| Paolo Sorrentino| Almodovar | Stanley Kubrick | David Lynch | Michel Gondry | Charlie Kaufman | Alejandro Jodorowsky

*SERIES*
Twin Peaks | The office | Broad city | high maintenance | Handmaid`s Tale | Planet Earth

*MUSIC*
I think is easier to say what I dont really enjoy. I'm not really into metal and some havier rock, but I think I enjoy every type of music otherwise, really depends of the song itself tho... I love going to music festivals, love world music, usually more into calm music, I enjoy Jazz, Classic, Bossa Nova, MPB , Indie, but also love a party mood sometimes, I listen to eletronic, hiphop, funk, etc.

Catching the Big Fish by David Lynch
The Stranger by Albert Camus

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Living for a semester in a very small Mormon town, somewhere in the Nevada desert really changed my mind set. Doing all the country stuff.

Hitch hiking all over New Zealand and doing some multi-day hikes.

Sleeping outdoor under the open sky in Fraser Island, Austrália.

Going to Vipassana (Meditation retreat)

Building a public space in wood stucture in Rijeka, Croatia.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I'm good with the architecture programs I need to use, is not so useful if you are not an architect, but I always can teach something about my field and give some aesthetics tips.

I speak Portuguese and I would be happy to teach some.

I also taught how to bake my famous home made granola , in some of my previous Couchsurfing experiences I had.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I could share a nice meal, life experience and some help with the house.
