CURRENT MISSION

Know different cultures and identify with people in service of common well being to discover new forms of contributing for the social transformation. Become more conscious and share our experiences so more and more people can seek for their purposes.

ABOUT ME

I like to question everything, if it makes sense, that action, that motivation and specially that principle. It is my very rational side and I know I have to thrill him more. As everything in life has its good side, somehow this makes me think quite positively, putting me at the edge of naivety many times. But being conscious I believe the caution becomes natural. Love meditation and every day I practice it to be capable to feel compassion for everyone equally and never judge, but this is a constant evolution. I require myself to be kind and humorous always to amuse the day. I like the nature, the simple, the different and the organization for harmony.
My questioner Me is the reason to be here. Experiencing life with this look of mine, I noticed that I followed a path automatically with what society and the environment where I was raised thought me to. I, alone, did very well, nothing to complain about. A divine and blessed family, always lived and ate well, had excellent health and education, traveled a lot and lived abroad, had all the goods I could want, a lot of fun and great friends. As a profession I had an incredible job and a stable career in a company that was a school for me. Grateful for all!
However, it got to a point that I asked whether what our collective conscious – the people of society – think about the concept of success and happiness is real and have a greater objective. It was then that I started my quest for wanting to understand more the real meaning of life and my role at this time. I couldn’t tell all about my idealism at once here, as the goal of this travel is also to get to know myself more in line with my purpose to dedicate myself to contribute for the common well being. Therefore my intention is to share these ideas jointly with my development along the time.
To end, I couldn’t leave the conventional part aside - I’m Brazilian, 31 years old, single for the paperwork and passionate by the women of all my dreams and journey partner. I’m graduate in business by PUC-SP, postgraduate in communication by ESPM-SP. I have a specialization in Social Business through a few courses and experiences, as Usina de Ideias from Artemísia and an international certificate by the Yunus Social Business Centre & ESPM-SP. I’ve worked for two years in banking and ten years for marketing in Gillette and Procter & Gamble. I speak Portuguese, English, Spanish and French. I’ve lived in Australia for study and in Chile for work. Like to do good.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A travel to African and Asian countries looking for people who are change makers and work to effectively improve the life of others. We choose to start overseas as we believe that by getting to know new realities we are more open to the unusual, the unpredictable, the different and more sensible to perceive subtleties. In these continents we’ll face valuable contrasts of cultures, beliefs and values. With empathy we want to connect with these people to look through their eyes and feel with their hearts. We are going with energy to ask, listen, observe, feel and register, always with the purpose to learn and share our experiences with the same intensity we live it. Our objective is to become more conscious people and develop essential capabilities that will enable us to work integrally in favor of the social transformation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job, my house and my family (the last one only for a while) to travel the world to learn from other people and other realities.

Teach, Learn, Share

My dream is that one day we will live in a world that everybody cares about everybody, where money will be a joke and nobody will care about it.
