About Me

I'm Brazilian girl, 30 years old.
My family blood is Japanese, but I was born and raised in Brazil. Lived in Japan for 10 years.
Certified Makeup Artist and photography lover.
I dreamed about travel the world since I was a little girl, but I never thought it would happen.
I've been preparing myself for this moment my whole life.
Finally I've started the journey with my husband and we are backpacking in Asia for 9 months now!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wonder to see the world outside the ordinary tourist view.
I lived in Japan and I had the privilege of exploring this amazing country all these years.
It's interesting to see how the real life is. That's why I don't want to be just a normal tourist in other countries.
I think Couchsurfing is a special opportunity to meet new people and learn the real local culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw the sunrise from the top of the highest place in Japan: the Mount Fuji.
It was an unique experience for me.
I am not used to hike or trekk mountains, so it was so physically exhausting, but at the same time my state of mind was so determined to reach the goal.
I couldn't explain in words how grateful I felt when the Sun came out... I just cried and appreciated that amazing view.
