My name is Ana Carolina, but you can call me Carol. I'm Brazilian and have a degree in International Relations. I’m passionate about traveling and discovering new cultures. I've had the chance to visit 20 of 26 states in Brazil and explore more than 20 countries around the world. Every trip has given me a new perspective and deepened my appreciation for the diversity and beauty of different cultures.
I’m finishing my backpacking trip after visiting more than 10 countries and it's been an incredible experience so far! Culture, the food, and the people have all made a lasting impression on me. I'm excited to keep exploring and learning more about this world. During my journey, I’ve had the chance to do volunteer work, pet sitting, and other local experiences that allowed me to connect deeply with communities and cultures.
I’m an easygoing and open-minded person who loves meeting new people and exchanging experiences. Whether it’s a deep conversation about life or just laughing over a funny story, I truly enjoy connecting with others.
I’m always looking for new adventures and meaningful connections, so if you’d like to share a story, a meal, or just some good company, I’d be more than happy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently, I decided to take a break from my Law degree to go on this backpacking trip. It wasn’t an easy decision, but I knew it was the right time to step out of my comfort zone and explore the world. Stepping away from the comfort and security of my routine to explore new countries, cultures, and perspectives has been both challenging and rewarding.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can exchange culinary tips or language lessons. I would love to share Brazilian recipes and learn more about the cuisine from other places. I can also teach you a bit of Portuguese.
Also a night of series and movies or enjoy good experiences together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a few things with my hosts, like cooking typical Brazilian dishes, a great way to bring a piece of Brazil to your home!
I’m also happy to be good company, whether it's going out, exploring the city, or just relaxing. I enjoy conversations and learning about new places and cultures, so we can exchange stories and experiences.
