About Me

CURRENT MISSION

If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.

ABOUT ME

Olá! I'm Naara. I love film (mostly experimental and documentaries) and I hope be able to spend my life thinking with them, talking about them and making films.
Also photography is one of my passions, even if I'm not very very talented on it.

Currently living in Paris for a Ph.D on film studies...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think the big interest of CS is meet people from all over the world, learn a bit about their culture, make friends, have a beer, hang out. That's why I love have travelers at my place.
On the other hand.. When you're traveling it's great be able to meet local people and feel more closely the culture of the country. Besides, it's pretty cool discover a city when someone who knows it very well can give us good tips...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been hosted by lot of people and, when I had a place where I could receive guests, I hosted many travelers. It was always a very positive experience. I've met fantastic people through CS and I'm sure I'll keep meeting people for a long while...
