I am originally from Belo Horizonte, but I have also lived in Rio de Janeiro and Portugal. Currently, I am back in my hometown, where I live with my boyfriend, Alex, and our two dogs, Olívia and Mileide. I work from home and spend most of my time here, while Alex works on-site.

If you have any issues with the LGBT+ community, or if you exhibit racist, misogynistic, or xenophobic attitudes, our exchange will not be pleasant.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started using Couchsurfing when I lived in Rio de Janeiro to improve my English, and since then, I've had many incredible experiences and met wonderful people. For me, Couchsurfing is an opportunity to share experiences, learn new stories, and create unexpected connections. I've had the chance to host people on several occasions and later visit them in their cities or countries. I love showing Belo Horizonte from a local's perspective, just as I love traveling and exploring new places beyond traditional tourism, experiencing life as the locals do.

Interests

I enjoy running and love a good breakfast (one of my favorite activities is going out on weekends to try different breakfasts).
I'm more of a homebody and a morning person, so I'm not the best person for nightlife tips, but I do enjoy music concerts and theater.
Politics interests me, and I like listening to podcasts and reading about the topic (extreme right-wing views have no place here).
