About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to figure out!

ABOUT ME

Leaving São Paulo for a while and living in Paris all by myself changed my life completely,now I want to be happy and be with good people.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to enjoy life, respecting this same right that everybody have and making my best to help people doing this. I believe in respect, in tolerance and hope the world become a better place to live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm in this project to help people that would like to visit and love my hometown, São Paulo. Maybe I won't be able to lend my couch, but my time, my experience in the city, this I can always lend, with pleasure. I'm here too, of course, to meet people and have some help to visit other places, in Brasil, or in other countries.

I know a lot about São Paulo (and how to take buses here, wich is a important skill in this city), maybe I can help you =)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had experiences in my house, I could discover things about other countries, things that would not discover by myself, things that people, and only people can tell, without leaving my living room. I've met brazilian people from the São Paulo community, and people from everywhere who was visiting São Paulo, good friends now, and that I visited while I was in Europe, or when I went to travel around the continent.
In Paris the community of CSers made my stay! The monday meetings helped to make friends and have a lot of fun. In all the trips that I was hosted by a CSer it was INCREDIBLE!

CS is the best thing that I ever did!

Interests

I'm interested in traveling the world, meet people, learn languages and cultures. Meet people here in my hometown too, have a good time, learn always more.

I love to show São Paulo around to people =)

Teach, Learn, Share
