About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Visit as many places as I can and meet interesting people along the way.

ABOUT ME

I'm open-minded and easygoing. A bit shy, but worth-getting-to-know kind of person!

Really organised and neat. Discrete and considerate of other people.

Sometimes I think there's so much to do and it seems to be so little time. I'm anxious to see and learn more. Curious about the future. Need to enjoy the little things and not worry so much.

PHILOSOPHY

Find something that motivates you, then put your heart and soul into it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My intention is to host travellers whenever possible (if not, at least give a hand with some tips) and surf some couches during my travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just had my first surfers! They were nice guests and a great introduction to Couchsurfing!!!

(April, 4th, 2014)

Interests

I love reading blogs, especially the ones about traveling and home improving.
I intend to start running and dream about one day running a half marathon! Dream big, right? :)
I enjoy spending time with friends and family, reading, going to the movies and, of course, traveling!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've participated in The Race for Life, organised by the Cancer Research, back in 2010. I walked among hundreds and hundreds of women who were fighting or knew someone that had cancer. Really powerful and emotional day!

I've been a member, for almost 2 years, of a project about "popular education" in the suburbs of Brasília. I learned, with my coleagues and the children who are part of this initiative, that we are all teachers and students at the same time! We can learn a lot with/from each other... much MORE than in any academy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Though one... Well, I can teach people how to improvise some yakisoba. Also, I can share some tips on organising...

Would like to learn about photography and some helpful tips about running (for begginers).
