About Me

Brazilian girl full of energy and curiosity! 🇧🇷 ♥️

After 8 amazing years in Paris, I moved to Madrid in August 2024 and now, discover this city, hidden corners and secret spots is definitely a work in progress. I'm really enjoying this !

Open-minded, talkative, and genuinely friendly, I enjoy connecting with people from all over and exchanging stories, laughs, and cultural gems. I’m a big fan of walking, I (almost) never take the metro, and I don’t even have a TV at home because I’d rather be curled up with a book.
At home also, you'll often find me playing LPs on my turntable.

I also create content for my YouTube channel @jeparlebresilien, where I teach “Brazilian” Portuguese and share the beauty of Brazilian history and culture in a fun, relaxed way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, to practice languages and to exchange culture!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

40 days backpacking trip in Colombia, plus 5-days trek to head the "Ciudad Perdida", in the Sierra Nevada.
(Bonus : I also enjoyed the traditional Gaiteros Festival in San Jacinto) ❤️🇨🇴

My visit with my Mom to the memorial "Door of No Return" in Ouidah, on the coast of Benin, from where more than 1 million of African captives were forced onto transatlantic slave ships. 🇧🇯

Playing (twice! 2019 & 2023) with my band to the opening of MART'NALIA concert (one of the greatest samba singers of Brazil, whose I'm also a huge fan). 🥁

Playing music before the show of stand up comedien Fary (the beest in France!) at Rolland Garros Stadium in front of 15000 people. 🥁 🇫🇷

Jungle Survival course in Amazon Forest for a Flight Attendant training during 3 days. ✈️🌳
