I am currently living in Vila Velha, Espirito Santo, Brazil, where I am a teacher. I love people who can teach me new things, challenge my way of thinking, deal with my competitive spirit when playing board games, and who can share creative music tastes. Aries Sun, Aries Moon, Sagittarius Rising.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I'm a foreigner living in Brazil, so Couchsurfing is a good way to connect with and meet other travelers. We never know how our paths will cross and the impact it can have, but we get closing to knowing every time we try. I may be available to host kind, friendly, and unique surfers who share a respectful message with me. I will not host if you are a male who does not speak English.
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm currently listening to a lot of Frank Sinatra, Rufus Du Sol, Rhye and Miles Davis, but my tastes are always changing. I am a huge fan of movies that show extreme contrasts: Interstellar, Cool Hand Luke, The Arrival, Howl's Moving Castle, Life is Beautiful, Atonement Books that are stuck in my mind: The Goldfinch, by Donna Tartt The Secret History, by Donna Tartt All the Light We Cannot See, by Anthony Doerr Meditations, by Marcu Aurelius Jitterbug Perfume, by Tom Robbins East of Eden, by John Steinbeck The Unbearable Lightness of Being, by Milan Kundera The Magicians (Series), by Lev Grossman Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?, by Jeanette Winterson The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, by Betty Smith The Bluest Eye, by Toni Morrison Why Nations Fail, by Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I woke up one day with a job offer to live in Brazil, so I got rid of my extra baggage, packed two suitcases, put my precious cat in a cat carrier, and hopped on a plane, shouting "welcome to the jungle, baby."
Teach, Learn, Share
I want to teach people about my love for life and usually, that is best told through novels. Timshel = "Thou Mayest" - East of Eden Erleichda = "Lighten Up" - Jitterbug Perfume
What I Can Share With Hosts
I am a passionate, lively, energetic person. I enjoy sharing my energy with people. That could branch out to include stories, music, books, beer, clothes, philosophies, etc.
My Interests
I like to know people and the world.
