[For those who don't speak portuguese and strongly believe that it sounds like a russian dude trying to speak spanish]

I'm basically a human-capybara.
As such, hobbies include: chilling, eating vegan, scaring unsuspecting passerby, making unlikely animal friendships and toothy grins.

As a human I'm an open-minded barefeet Gemini, crazy cat and dog (and pretty much any animal) lady, and professional beginner - Be it skating or afro peruvian percussion, I'm always starting something new! (Not so much sticking to it though....)

Pheobe from Friends is kinda my spirit animal, though I once had a pet rooster as a roomate so I guess that makes me a little Joey/Chandler (weird poultry pet owners) as well ... Anyway, currently when I'm not working as an human servant to my pets I enjoy music festivals, traveling, camping and doing some Macgyverisms. I'm also always up for some chana masala, astrology chats, Netflix random suggestions and being trapped in the bottomless pit of internet memes.

PS: I have a few host references at my partner's profile since we used to travel together and use his account. You can check them at my couchsurfing pics

Uma capivara de alma e de profissão!

Pés descalços, geminiana, brincante e "juninha" - sou sempre iniciante em algo novo! Seja uma aula de patinação ou uma oficina experimental de cajón afroperuano.

Nasci da junção de Minas e Pernambuco, sou vegetariana e a louca dos animais - até um galo já tive como colega de apê. Atualmente tenho um cão e um gato pra ocupar minha vida, minha cama, minhas mãos com cafunés e toda a memória do meu celular com fotos!

Curto bastante festivais de música, e roletar com minha barraca por aí. Adoro comida indiana, astrologia, gambiarras, gírias, dialetos e toda sorte de sotaques, e tô sempre pronta pra uma boa e velha procrastinação com as sugestões aleatórias da Netflix ou o fluxo infindável de memes da internet.

PS: Eu tenho algumas referências de hosts no perfil do meu parceiro, porque costumávamos viajar juntos e as solicitações foram feitas pela conta dele. Você pode checar a avaliação nas minhas fotos de couchsurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

[PT] Eu acredito na experiência e nos saberes da experiência; que o mundo, mundo é um vasto mundo e que a vida só se faz plena no encontro: com o outro e com si mesmo.
É isso que eu procuro participando dessa comunidade: trocar experiências e oportunidades de encontrar o novo. Novas pessoas, novos rumos, novos olhares, novas paisagens.

[EN] I believe in experience learning, and that life is only truly lived through encounters and exchanges, and that's what I'm searching participating in this community: experience exchanges and opportunities of expanding my perceptions of the world, with new people, new thoughts, new gazes, new landscapes.

I simply CANNOT, so I'm just gonna list this intead:

- One song that always puts me in a good mood: Kilario - Di Melo

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

[PT] Conseguir ser vegetariana morando em Minas! A terra onde até no alface se põe bacon...

[EN] Manage to be a vegetarian in a land where bacon is considered spice!

Teach, Learn, Share

[PT] "Ninguém sabe tudo, ninguém ignora tudo; ninguém educa ninguém, ninguém educa a si mesmo, os homens se educam entre si, mediatizados pelo mundo" (Paulo Freire)

No meu trabalho em museus, trabalhamos com o que chamamos de Mediação.
Mediação é estar no meio: estar entre as pessoas e os espaços, procurando aproximá-los. E isso só é possível a partir do diálogo, do acolhimento, e da troca. Conversar, compartilhar e acolher. Eu acho que as aprendizagens só de dão nesse estar junto, e eu tenho interesse em compartilhar e aprender junto sobre um pouco de tudo!
Acredito que todo mundo tem saberes fruto das experiências pessoais, e quero compartilhar meus causos, mas principalmente meus ouvidos, pra ouvir as histórias de outros viajantes!

[EN] "No one knows everything and no one knows nothing; no one educates anyone, no one educates himself alone, people educate each other mediated by the world" (Paulo Freire)

My work in museums is based upon an educational perspective called Mediation. Mediation is being in the middle: between people and spaces, people and content, trying to bring them closer together. This is only achieved through dialogue, fostering a welcoming attitude and exchange. I believe that learning is a communal experience, and I have an interest in sharing and learning together about a bit of everything! Every single person has knowledge from personal experiences and I wish to share my own,but mainly learn from other travellers.

What I Can Share with Hosts

[PT] Tarefas de casa, cachaça mineira e doce de leite, causos, risadas, cervejas, rolés e uma barraca guerreira que já passou por poucas e boas

[EN] House chores, portuguese swear words, local cachaça and brazilian sweets, anecdotes, laughs, beers, hangouts and a camping tent with more than a few stories
