I’m originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Apart from being an avid explorer, I am a NGO professional, working to improve the public education system in Brazil. I'm open minded, very curious so I love being with people and spending time with them, hearing their stories and sharing about me.

I am fascinated by the nature, then outdoor sports like running, diving and hiking are in my heart; and when it comes to intangible things, I have to say that I am passionate about learning in general, then I love listening and reading about historical or cultural topics, family histories, etc

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I see CS is not only a platform to host or get hosted but a whole culture we decide to be part of, based on respect, kindness and trust. When people open the doors of their house to me, I sincerely receive this act as a invite to also ​​creating lasting connections, and spending quality time with people from different backgrounds.
