About Me

We travel and live for experiences. Meeting people and experiencing incredible moments is the focus of our journeys! My husband Manoel (Brazilian) and I (French-German)are living in Berlin, he is working as a Capoeira teacher and I work at an international consultancy for sustainable development. Since I was born I have lived in over 8 different countries for longer periods including South Africa, Brazil, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands and Belgium. Manoel has lived in Brazil, Portugal, the Netherlands and Germany.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

By travelling with Couchsurfing we want to discover countries and cities on a more emotional level, entering a world of cultures.
Experiences mean to us living life fully !

Interests

We train Capoeira, love Brazilian culture, music and dances, playing music (Ukulele, clarinet etc.).

We love to learn about new dances, music styles and traditional rituals of other cultures! And of course... we love local food !

Furthermore we love NATURE, hiking, horseback riding and all amazing experiences you can do in nature.
