Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I was born in Stockholm and have lived there for most parts of my life with some exceptions. My father is Brazilian and mother Swedish, therefore I speak both Swedish and Portuguese, which I today thank my dad alot for! It wasnt easy making me and my siblings speak portuguese! I have also studied spanish in school and together with my portuguese I speak a farely good Portunhol :D.
When I was 11-13 my whole family moved to London due to my fathers work. I think that experience might have been the start of my "nomadic" life. I cant really stay at one place for more than 3 years. I want to see new places and learn to know new people all the time. It might also be the fact of being half Brazilian that also has made me interested in other cultures and traditions.
Right now I live and study in Lund, in southern parts of Sweden.
After high school I lived in Rio de Janeiro 2 years. Living with my grandmother and simply "finding my roots". I traveled for 2 months along the northern coast of Brazil and then also to Peru, Bolivia and Argentina.
I am quite bad at not doing nothing. I always want something to do or plan etc. I guess it has to do with getting out the most of life. I want to do everything!
I really enjoy good music, and to dance to good music! Im a fan of music festivals. I have been to at least one every summer the 5 lasts years. Also volunteered at some.
Right now my travel interests are Europe. I want to see history and stuff that Europe has alot to share.
If I would compare myself to an animal I would say a cameleont, cause I can adapt myself in pretty much all situations and with most types of people!
PHILOSOPHY
Have you lost your hearts voice. Find a new one!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books
Moonrise Kingdom, Remember the Titans, Benny and Joon are some movies I enjoy.
A book I just read is Half of A Yellow Sun which is about the civil war in Nigeria, when Biafra tried to become a independent country.
I like books that teach things about the world and that makes me understand other cultures and lives and so on.

Rio de Janeiro and Stockholm are my two favorite cities in the world! The water and nature combined with the culture and life of a capital make them outstanding!!
