About Me

I was born and grew up in São Paulo, but have lived in Rio since 2012. As a journalist and researcher I have travelled all through Brazil. I just love traveling, learning languages, making new friends and showing them my city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I entered CS to make new friends and get in touch with other languages and cultures. I'm very interested in learning about your country and showing you mine!

Music, Movies, and Books

I have an eccletic taste for music and already tried to learn to play guitar (not that well, I must say). I like rock and Brazilian music in general - samba, bossa-nova, a bit of everything. I don't have a favorite "kind" of books or movies - I prefer those who change the way I see the world. In my free time I also write short stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the sunset at Ipanema beach. Boat trip through the Amazonas river in Manaus. Walking through the sand dunes in Northeast Brazil.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Portuguese in exchange for your language. I can also give you tips for Rio de Janeiro and share my travel experiences.
