Hi, my name is Julia, I'm 22 years and I'm studying psicology here in Brazil. I always loved to travel and I'm about to do my first backpacker trip in a few weeks, I'm very excited!
I love reading, museums, adrenaline sports, knowing knew people, beer, nature, art, good food, good talks. I'm also a big fan of music (nowdays I practice two different types of dance, lindy hop and rockabilly, wich is jazz from the 30's and rock and roll from the 60's). I sing, play piano and ukulele, in fact I intend take my ukulele with me to play all around the world.
I'm a very easy going and open minded person, enjoy all types of programms and i'm looking foward to have different experiences

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couchsurfing because I want to experience this kind of traveling that is new to me. I think that couchsurfing allows me to learn about the world in a more complete way. I also think is really cool to stay with a couchsurfer because, I think it's like having a local friend, so I can get more in touch with the local culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 18 I wanted to skydiving, but my parents wouldn't ever let me do it. So I secretly saved money for a year without telling anyone and, in the day of my 19 birthday, I woke up very early, when my family was still sleepping, and went skydiving. I only told my parents about it while I was already on the way, so they wouldn't stop me. After the jump, I travaled back home and all my friends were there for my birthday party. I was a pretty great day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I intend to learn a lot about different cultures, the way of thinking, the routine, the habits, the personality of each place and each group of people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share all of brasilian culture, teach a little of ukulele or piano, I love talks about cinema, art, music, philosophy, books, nature, etc and I'm looking foward to have this kind of precious exchange that counchsurfing allows me to.
