I love hearing stories about travel, about life... I consider laughing to be the best way to feel good.
I like to take care of and help people and I discovered myself in physiotherapy. I'm looking to be a better person for myself and for the people who cross my path.

I don't know much about anything, but I know a little bit about a lot, which makes me have good conversations.

My Portuguese is great, my español is aceptable and my English... ahhm, my English is not good, but I try. (I'm even using the online translator to make this profile in English.)

I love to travel and this year (2025) I will finally be able to travel for a long time. In March, this sabbatical effectively begins! For this reason I am not receiving requests for guests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

By a friend, I discovered CS a long time ago... Today I stay here to meet new people, cultures and way of life. I hosted a few people and with each one I was able to learn new things and share great moments.
The collaboration that CS provides is immense and I want to take advantage of it to continue getting to know people and their cultures and share a little of myself as well.
Hosting them and staying in the future on a trip will only be a good consequence.

Interests

Knowing the world through my eyes or other people's stories, the important thing is to be open to opportunities. I like to open my points of view to what is already known and to the new. This time I want to learn more, not only through stories, but also in practice.
I like to crochet or embroider during trips and I've been trying to read a little more, I also take risks in the kitchen and sometimes on a dance floor.
I really like to talk and I know that language can be a barrier many times, but I like challenges and I will use technology to get closer to people and make real, deep and fun connections.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like forró (a typical Brazilian rhythm)
I'm terrible at band names, song lyrics, song names...
The same goes for books, movies, actors, etc...
What matters is to participate and have a good time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*Living with someone ♡

Teach, Learn, Share

> Life itself is already a learning experience, I hope I never forget that. <

** Divide to Multiply!**

If anyone wants to learn Portuguese I'm at your disposal! And teaching subway riding in SP is one of my specialties.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good conversation, respect, care, I can risk cooking something, help with the organization and cleaning of the house...
I adapt well to situations, I understand if it is not possible to spend a lot of time together, after all I am out of the normal routine.
I need to feel that my space is being respected and so you will have the best of me in return.
