-------- English Bio -------- (Português embaixo!)

First, please note I live in São Sebastião, *not* in São Paulo city. My town is on the coast, about 4 hours from SP city by bus. So if you’re going to São Paulo city only and need a place to stay or want to meet up, I’m not the right person since, well, I’m not there! Also, please do us both a favor and don't ask me questions that you can easily find the answers to on Google. :D Thanks!

Now on to my short bio:

I was born in São Paulo, Brazil's biggest concrete jungle, but moved to the beautiful island of Ilhabela when I was 6 and then to Toronto, Canada, when I was 15, where I lived for many years (high school, university, etc).

After university, I became a portrait and wedding photographer and for the past few years, I led a nomad life, working hard for a few months then traveling all over for the rest of the year.

As I turned 30 in 2018, I realized I was feeling tired of moving around... I was missing my family and craving stability. So this year I returned to my beautiful homeland of Brazil and now I’m super happy living in my own little apartment in the paradisiacal beach town of São Sebastião, where I spent part of my childhood.

I still work as a photographer. You can see some of my work at:

I enjoy having meaningful conversations. I like talking about shamanism, entheogens, ancient cultures, astronomy and astrology, politics, history, art, design, activism, yoga, conspiracy theories, ghost stories, and pretty much anything mystical. :D

I appreciate good-hearted, intellectual peeps who can still tell a good joke. ;) I have a good sense of humour and try not to take life so seriously. Keyword: moon. I don’t really drink or smoke these days, but will have a glass of wine on special occasions. I believe in the unparalleled personal growth that traveling provides.

************ Requesting to stay with me? ************

Please make sure to make **a proper request** through the system (not just send a message) including the exact dates and any relevant info. Tell me something about you and why you want to stay with me, and show me you’ve read my profile by inserting the keyword I mentioned. Everyone who wants to stay here needs to have their own individual profile on CS. The more information you have on your profile, the better chances you have of me accepting you. Requests that don't meet these simple rules will be denied without an explanation. :)

-------- Português --------

Após morar 16 anos fora do Brasil em vários países, principalmente no Canadá, retornei para pátria amada e estou muito feliz vivendo nesse paraíso tropical de São Sebastião, onde passei parte da minha infância e juventude.

Trabalho como fotógrafa. Adoro ter conversas profundas sobre temas como enteógenos, astronomia e astrologia, história, arte, ativismo, yoga, e qualquer assunto místico, rs. Palavra chave: lua.

Ao mesmo tempo, tento não levar a vida tão a sério. Acho que tenho um senso de humor peculiar rs e adoro pessoas engraçadas. :D Não fumo ou bebo, porém aprecio um bom vinho em ocasiões especiais! ;) Acredito no poder de transformação que viajar nos proporciona.

************ Gostaria de ficar em casa? ************

Por favor faça seu pedido *corretamente* através do site (não mande só uma mensagem). Inclua as datas EXATAS, número de pessoas, um pouco sobre vc(s) e me mostre que leu meu perfil inserindo a palavra-chave mencionada. Cada pessoa que quiser ficar aqui tem que ter seu próprio perfil no site. Quanto mais informação vc tiver no seu perfil, mais chance vc tem de eu te aceitar. Caso seu pedido não seja feito corretamente seguindo essas simples instruções, ele será rejeitado sem explicações. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To try to catch a glimpse of how humans born and raised in cultural environments so different from mine look at the world. To hear and share interesting stories that we’ve all collected during our short time on this planet.

I really wish I could have hosted more people in the past years, but I didn't have a place where I was able to do that. Now I finally have! :D
