🇧🇷🇺🇸Brazilian-American living in Sydney🇦🇺
***I’m getting a lot of requests to stay with me in Boston, I no longer live in Boston and am now living in Sydney*** (updated in 2026 April)

Love to travel, learn new music, learn about different cultures, visit art galleries, drink matcha, smoothie bowls, chase waterfalls, ride motorbikes, hike, interact with new people & listen to their stories and life perspectives, traveling is special but going home is also very special🙏🏼

My travel story started in Spain when I visited my sister during her exchange semester in Barcelona and ever since then i fell in love with traveling and am constantly seeking for my next adventure!
