About Me

I'm originally from Rio and am currently doing my master's in Germany. I have been vegetarian for about a year, but lately I'm more of a flexitarian. I appreciate people who are also vegetarians but I don't try to convert anyone :) I study environmental management and I'm very interested in any kind of topic related to this area. I love animals (don't mind if you have a pet, I'd actually love it), travelling, cooking (specially baking) and chemistry. I enjoy going to art museums, discussing History and archaeology, biology, ecology, geology, geography etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to find some nice people who are willing to take me in for a couple/few nights. Getting to know people from around the world is to me a very important part in life and should be done in the most diverse ways possible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Japan was the most enriching experience for me so far. Apart from the fact that it was where I learnt 90% of the English I speak now, it was a huge, shocking cultural change that made me who I am today. And, thanks to that, I visited a few countries in Asia as well.

I also went on a road trip when I was about 10 with my family. We drove from Rio through southern Brazil, Argentina and Chile, all the way back through Argentina again and Uruguay. It was amazing; my longest car ride was 17 hours (from then).
