Overview
About Me
Marcela Variani ❤️
Hello! My name is Marcela, and I’m an Italo-Brazilian citizen who considers herself a global soul. I believe the world is our home, and we are all connected.
I am a holistic coach, facilitator, and traveler passionate about helping women bloom and empowering them through Tantra, Therapeutic Theater, Family Constellations, and mindfulness practices. My work creates sacred spaces where people can reconnect with their inner goddess energy, heal old wounds, and find self-love.
I founded z95arthome, a holistic space dedicated to art, self-awareness, and empowerment. This space travels around the world with me, bringing transformational experiences to women in different communities.
In addition to my coaching work, I am also a Tarot reader and educational researcher, deeply invested in the intersection of arts, philosophy, and personal development.

My Story as a Traveler 🌍
I discovered my passion for travel in 2016 during an exchange semester in Jaén, Spain. It was a life-changing experience that opened my heart to meeting people from all over the world. After finishing my studies, I spent 10 weeks backpacking through Europe, which ignited my adventurous spirit.
In 2018, I moved to Rome, Italy, and fell in love with its beauty and history. In 2019, I embraced a nomadic lifestyle after walking the Camino de Santiago. Since then, I’ve been exploring the world, connecting with people, and diving into new cultures.
Since 2020 I have been living in the beautiful and sunny Barcelona.
My travel plans for 2025 include exploring Italy, Turkey, Dubai, Thailand, and Bali. I also hope to connect with like-minded individuals who are interested in personal growth and self-awareness.

My Philosophy
I believe that traveling transforms us forever. It’s the only thing you buy that makes you richer, both in experiences and connections.
"Life is a gift, and I am thankful for that!"
"The more you give, the more you have."
"Everyone and everything you meet knows something you don’t."
Traveling is about opening yourself to the Universe, sharing your heart, and learning from others.

Hosting & Couchsurfing Rules
As a guest, I always try to contribute by buying my own food or helping with house tasks. It’s my way of showing gratitude to those who open their homes to me.
As a host, I appreciate respect and the same thoughtful attitude. Couchsurfing is an amazing platform for connecting with fellow travelers, so let’s use it respectfully and honor its spirit.

Final Note
I’m excited to connect with you, whether it’s to share travel stories, collaborate on projects, or simply enjoy good conversations. If you’re interested in my workshops or personal development coaching, feel free to reach out.
Keep it easy, keep it simple, and let’s make the most of this big, beautiful world!
🌟 Nice to meet you,
Marcela
