Hello, I'm Daniela Filipe Bento (aka Dani Bento). I'm a software developer despite of having a degree on Physics - Astronomy and Astrophysics. I identify myself as a non binary trans woman (demigirl), pansexual, relationship anarchist, anti-capitalist and anti-specist. I do activism on LGBTI+ field as well social justice and mental health. I'm currently seeking for the best practices on non formal education, on mental health literacy and intersectionality.

I write a lot, and I have being publishing articles in many different journals and magazines, besides my personal blog which you ask for (is in Portuguese) which I try to maintain up to date with my own reflections. I'm part of the board of an LGBTI+ association an also coordinator of trans lead group (which has support groups, working groups, etc...).

I have two wonderful cats called Misako and Emi. They are both very kind, they love to sleep with people.

I'm learning a lot of new things like Painting, DJing, Electronic Music composition, Aikidô, Amateur Astronomy and Photography.

PS: This profile is being updated with more information :)

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I'm here because I thing that is import to share and meet different people with different life experiences around the world. I found it very interesting to know each person and their live and to tell about my own story and processes.

I think that being part of the Coushsurfing community it is also an opportunity to share more about the place where I live, which also makes me study and explore more my own city. It is also an opportunity to go to good places when I do Couchsurfing.

Also, it is a really great platform to be used as an economical alternative to other expensive places to live or to stay, as well, to help people to find a common ground on the city to simplify their process of staying here.
