Hello, nice to meet you, I'm Belit. 🤗

So, about me, I am Brazilian, I had already the opportunity to live in 5 different states of the country and have visited 15. So about Brazil I already know a little bit. I love to travel, so I intend to see much more of this country and all the world. I lived most of my life in the state of Mato Grosso and Rio de Janeiro, but currently I am living in Bordeaux/France with my friend Maria.

I love nature, animals, hiking, camping, but also enjoys life in the big city visiting bars, restaurants, museums and parks. I am passionate about learning new things and understanding more about the traditions and cultures of each place.

✅ About deal with me: I can be a little introverted and sometimes have difficulty starting conversations, but I still appreciate them a lot and love being a good listener and sharing my experiences when I become comfortable. I am very clean, polite, organized, respectful and great to follow rules. I have never had problems with anyone that I used to live together or that I hosted.

My hobbies are painting, reading, making handicrafts, play video games, board games, watch anime and series of the moment.

⚜️ I’ve been a Scout for a few years and as they say, once a Scout, always a Scout, so I take a lot of Scout values with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people from different parts of the world and hear their stories. I have had the opportunity to be a Host with my boyfriend Leonardo C. D. Meliande (C.S. profile) in Rio de Janeiro and it has been an amazing experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

🎼 I am open to all kinds of music, but I really love pop (a bit of kpop), indie and MPB (Brazilian Popular Music).

📚 About books, I prefer the ones with magic, fantasy, adventures, romances and historical, such as Percy Jackson, Fall of Giants, Heartstopper and some Brazilians classic books.

🎞Well, movies are something that I really love to do with other people but not by myself, so I enjoy watching everything and I always do it with my boyfriend, but I don't have a favorite movie or favorite gender movie.
