Hi! I’m Raynice, a sociology professor and PhD researcher currently based in Germany. I work at a hotel that promotes Brazilian culture, which lets me share a bit of home with the world. I’m passionate about social justice, environmental causes, and exchanging ideas with people from different cultures. I love meaningful conversations, good food, and discovering the everyday beauty in new places.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

For the opportunity to have contact with the locals, which would allow me to have the experience of a traveler and not just a tourist, that's why I loved the app's supportive accommodation proposal.

兴趣

I am a sociologist and anthropologist, currently doing my doctorate in sociology at the University of Coimbra. I am also passionate about philosophy. I come from the Brazilian Amazon, as a result, I developed a real interest in environmental issues.
