CURRENT MISSION

Get to meet you, and you, and you…

ABOUT ME

Personally I don’t like long descriptions about myself and I tend to avoid them... I'm not lazy, I'm just a simple complicated girl and I rather prefer when a person tries to discover who I am by himself and build his own opinion about me. Go on! I dare you!

PHILOSOPHY

To have a personal philosophy would mean that I arrived to some sort of conclusion how to guide my life. As a good researcher, I keep looking for all sort of hypothesis and not for the final truth.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to cook (despite of not being very good at it) but specially I like to bake :) If I have time, I'll bake you a gluten free cake you'll cry for more!
I'll host you and I'd like to be hosted :)

Interessen

You know those people that discovered their passion and what they were good at really early in their life? I’m one of those lucky bastards :) I was 4 and I knew that I wanted to draw, and 21 years later I’m still doing what I love. My passions are design and illustration and still go beyond that and I kind of approach any sort of art with a smile. Right now, I’m dancing salsa and I’m thrilled about it!
Nevertheless, I’m a geeky girl, and you’ll find me most of the time with my nose in a book.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

In Portuguese there are two different verbs for the English verb ‘to be’: ser e estar. Despite this seems like a very ordinary fact, once you absorb the difference, it can drastically change your vision of happiness and you’ll be able to enjoy life with the same curiosity and lightness as when you were a child. Then, anything can make you smile :) (and you'll find me smiling without reason in the street)
