I'm a 23 year old Brazilian girl moving to Faro, Portugal, to study Tourism. Travelling is my thing and my purpose in life. I study tourism and I aim to do it as a profession because I truly believe people get nicer when travel often. More empathic, respectful, trustful, reliable and likely to spread love and joy around the world.
I've been to a lot of places already, it's my third time in Europe and I'm eager to make it the best time of my life! :))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find CS a very interesting way to meet up new friends and know places more than just sightseeing in touristic sites. Meeting local people makes the experience a lot more full of richness - cultural, social and even touristic. And I also want to provide that experience to others visiting my city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sleeping in the Saara, working with everything possible in Australia, travelling alone to South Africa. Nothing too special but good experiences I'll keep with myself til the end.

Teach, Learn, Share

Spending a new year's eve in Madrid with my family while my friends were in Amsterdam taught me the biggest lesson of my life. I was (finally) having some good meals, staying in comfortable hotels and buying things I couldn't afford before my parents got in Europe to visit me, but any money in the world could change my desire to be in that poor hostel in Amsterdam, with those five idiots eating shitty food and not having good sleeps at all. That day I learned money can't buy happiness. Never. You will never be happy away from where your heart is.
I feel happy to realize that the biggest lesson I've had was in a trip. I keep that learning and I try to pass it to others. Always.

(Please don't think I don't love my family. I REALLY do and I was completely overjoyed of having them there. But not that day. Not for new year's.)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Everything I lived, everything I learned, items in my bucket list still to be done... Or just my time to chat. Chatting is always a good idea. Even better with a good beer in hands.
