About Me

ABOUT TO MOVE, PLEASE DON'T EXPECT MUCH

Welcome to my profile, all you pizza lovers from around the world! I'm a human. Being. Trying to figure out what life is about. Super curious and quite sensitive.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Sorry in advance if I don't answer in time! Being more or less the only active female host in the area I get a lot of requests (but not always a notification on my phone) so please don't take it personally! ๐Ÿ™

๐Ÿ‘‰ If for some reason I reject you, there's still my friend Somi who's also hosting here. You can find her in my hosting references and in my friends ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿฝโ€๐Ÿซ Currently looking for a job ๐Ÿ•ต๐Ÿฝ If you know something that involves languages, intercultural communication, migration, anti-discrimination etc. feel free to share! ๐Ÿ™ƒ

What I dislike:
-arrogance
-being only a tourist
- sexism, racism, capitalism and any other kind of discrimination or superiority feeling ๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒˆโœŠ๐Ÿฝ (yes, that involves not having a clear stance against genocide)

*Not because I'm a big fan of flying, but because big airports are one of the few places where I can see people from almost everywhere in such a concentration without having to go far away myself. Plus, airport scenes are the most emotional ones!

Why Iโ€™m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet and get to know new people and cultures. I think that one can't know the world just by staying in hotels and visiting touristic sights. With couchsurfing one is able to discover the city with locals and to make new friends.

Thanks to Couchsurfing and many great people
- I know why in Brasil you shouldn't eat the last piece of a meal, if you're planning to marry
- I started a collection of traditional clothes from different countries and cultures ๐Ÿ‘—๐Ÿ‘˜๐Ÿฅป
- I learned the meaning of real hospitality
- I had the opportunity to play the harp once in my life
-I ate a normal dish only with my hands for the first time since my childhood
- I know how to write my name in Japanese signs
- I learned how to pronounce the Spanish 'r' correctly (well, now I just have to practice XD)
-I don't feel lost, no matter where I am
...
And I'm really thankful for that!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you anything I know.

I'd love to share our travel experiences, a good meal, unforgettable moments, simply a great time wherever we are.
