CURRENT MISSION

Become the "wanderlust aristocracy "

ABOUT ME

Some vague basics:

I'm generally of a happy disposition. I will find the most absurd things absolutely hilarious, sometimes. I tend not to breath when I find a situation funny and those are the only moments you're likely to have me silent. I talk immensely. I love people that talk.

There's a word for everything in this world. So, please, come and communicate. I love those who can express themselves, those who bear in mind that what we think we're saying is not what the other will understand and, as a result, choose their words carefully. I admire writers for being able to express what the majority can only be acquainted by having felt it.

I'm a pathologically over thinker.

Some vague details:

I love my brother and my sister, photography, painting, music, sewing machines and literature. Dogs, men with beards, and motorbikes. Chocolate, white chocolate and dark chocolate.I love some stuff that I hate, and love when some people realize that.

I plan to become a seamstress, some day in the future!

I just can't stand rude people and those who eat with their mouth wide open, that's all.

Note: I do not have a TV in my apartment, so if I accept to host you, please make sure you have some interesting stories to tell me ( that's the pay to stay in my couch, its not 100 % free)

PHILOSOPHY

Rarity;

“Travel is like love, mostly because it’s a heightened state of awareness, in which we are mindful, receptive, undimmed by familiarity and ready to be transformed. That is why the best trips, like the best love affairs, never really end.”— Pico Iyer

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

before I set off to Tibet I contacted every CS in the Country. They not only answered me, but they went the extra mile to learn as much as possible about people traveling alone in Lhasa.

In the end, I was arrested, as I foresaw! Still, there was a great CS, called Jerry, who show me around, took me to "secret" places and made the journey all more memorable!

I had an amazing experience in Montreal, where I was hosted by the most amazing person and was shown around by the most interesting and knowledgeable person in town!

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Quit the internship I was doing, took a 44-hour train to Lhasa. I was illegally in there as I didn't have the Permit, and for such I was arrested, but ended up under protection of the chief of the police all the way to Nepal. How amazing is that?
