Hello!

I’m a brazilian psychologist, and what truly drives me is adventure! My journey around the world began at 16 when I traveled alone to South Africa on a missionary trip. Since then, I've explored more than 30 countries, and each experience has taught me something unique.

I am currently traveling in Europe, and soon (February) I will be in Asia, and after coming back home in Canada (July) where I am living with my husband until he finishes his studies. I am an easy going person, but I have problems with smoke and animal’s hair (with serious respiratories crisis after someone smoking near me), so it is a point to consider 🫣. I am organized, clean (taking showers everydays 😂), and like a good psychologist, I like to hear people.

Let’s swap stories and create amazing memories together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I believe in the power of connection and shared experiences!

Traveling isn’t just about seeing new places; it’s about meeting incredible people and learning from their stories. Couchsurfing offers a unique opportunity to engage with local cultures and communities in a way that traditional tourism can’t.
