About Me

I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and while I love my country deeply, I’ve always believed the world is full of amazing places to live in and explore!

After graduation, I moved to the US for a work-study cultural exchange program - starting out in North Carolina, then eventually making my way to NYC, where I live for over a decade now.

I’m a curious, open-minded traveler who loves connecting with people through good conversation, shared experiences, and cultural exchange. I enjoy discovering new places, meeting locals, and learning from different ways of life - that’s what makes traveling so meaningful to me.
I’m easygoing, clean, and respectful, and I always try to bring good energy wherever I go!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, Couchsurfing is about genuine human connection - kindness, curiosity, and the joy of sharing stories, culture, and everyday life. Love the culture and meeting new ppl! And also love to share!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Leaving Brazil to have an experience abroad. Meeting people from different and interesting places and learn from their culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love connecting through good conversation, shared experiences, cultural insights, and positive energy. I can offer local tips from NYC, Rio, and São Paulo, as well as travel itineraries and advice for places I’ve visited around the world.

I’m passionate about travel and enjoy helping new travelers - whether it’s sharing recommendations, swapping stories, or even hosting when I can.

I’m also happy to hang out, catch a concert together (love live music!), work out, grab drinks or dinner, help with small tasks or errands, and even lend a hand with house/pet sitting if needed.
