CURRENT MISSION Live, know places, share with people ABOUT ME Hello, my name is Isabel, but for many years all call me Bel. I'm 28 now and working with film and television. I have a degree in journalism and have just completed a postgraduate course in film at a school in Madrid, Spain. I spent nine months living in this city and now I begin a journey of one month by some European countries. My travel schedule includes these cities: London, Bratislava, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and Rome. I will return to Spain in August, leaving Treviso (Italy) by boat toward Barcelona. PHILOSOPHY See the beauty of simple things. I do not need much to be happy.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I will spend a month and some days traveling around Europe and returned to Brazil in early September. I would like to make couch surfing during this time and then when I return to São Paulo, put my home available for others. I believe that travel is not only known places as a tourist, but also meet people, and couch surfing seems to me the best way to out of the tourist circuit and live the real city. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE My roommate is also in couch surfing. We got here in Madrid two girls who came from the U.S. last month. In the past week we received at home a girl from Brazil, who met through a friend.
Music, Movies, and Books
Classics from Fellini and Nouvelle Vague are my favorits. Hitchcock is a master. Orson Welles (Citizen Kane is maybe the best movie ever). I love Casablanca!!! Play it again, Sam! Woody Allen, Copolla (the father and the daughter), Wes Anderson, Richad Linklater, Wong Kar Wai, Jim Jarmursh, Jean Pierre Jeunet, Almodovar, Alejandro González Iñárritu...

Music: love brasilian music like Chico Buarque, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Milton Nascimento, Gal Costa, Elis Regina, Nara Leão... Jazz, rock, indie rock, tango, flamenco.
