About Me

Currently living in São Paulo, volunteering with a local non-profit serving refugees and local Brazilians living in vulnerable situations.

I'm settled for now but haven't lost my love for travelling and experiencing new places and new cultures. Whenever I'm back in Europe there's hopefully an opportunity to hop across the channel :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because the best way to see somewhere is to meet the locals!
