About Me

I started traveling on my own when i was 13 and i got used to it so now, i'm a travel lover. Because of that, i have developed a broad experience with traveling struggles i have lost planes, lost connection flights, almost being stucked in my supposed to be layover for 2 weeks, had lost luggage, not being registered in the coming back flight, etc.

One of my biggest fears is feeling that I'm in my comfort zone, it makes me so anxious!!, I really can not understand how some people likes it. I am the kind of person that likes adventure and being exposed to quite dangerous situations, i do then i think.

The things that i enjoy the most are being in the middle of the forest or ocean, having a very nice and clever conversation, being silent, partying as if there was no tomorrow, doing photography, falling in love (hopeless romantic) with places, people and moments, having some reaaaally good pizza, ice cream or chocolate yummy yummy .... Maybe some cocktails too :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get to know people that lives in the places i visit so i can learn more about the daily life of those places talk about life and just get to know each other. I love listening to lifetime stories and becoming friends. I believe that besides hosting or being hosted, you are given the opportunity to know amazing people that has similar interests as you do.

If you come to the city, I would love to take around and show you my favorite places, i have been a tourist guide before and everyone has been very pleased :).

Interests

I enjoy cultural and outdoors activities such as visiting museums, galleries, ballet, expositions and going for a hike, visiting national parks or animals sanctuaries. I like all kinds of animals (im a biologist) and most of the time i save bugs excepting roaches, they freak me out and i run and scream haha.

I like reading, going to the cinema and basically getting lost
walking either in the city or the forest. I also enjoy cooking tho, i still have to learn how to cook more dishes :p

About partying, I LOVE it !!! I actually get quite sad when I don't see any of the night life of the places i visit. Balance is an important thing so, if i have seen the day life, then i must see the night life. Besides, lots of good stories start at dusk.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all types of music and i dance most of them from salsa, bachata reggaeton to reggae and EDM. I just enjoy dancing a lot!!!, I can even give you some basic classes if you want :)

About movies i love action movies i like thw battles, swords, blood and all of that power!, i also like SciFi i loved gravity and interstelar, comedy movies are also good ones but i'm quite shy when i watch them because i laugh out loud and do some funny noises so i usually watch them alone haha and of course some rom coms awwwww yeah i really like them but i also watch them alone because i do funny noises when they are about to kiss hahaha i still get nervous eventhough i know how the story ends haha.

The books i like are about fiction stories, sometimes real life but im not so much into biographies and political related stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done volunteering in Mexico building houses and helping in a nutrition program for kids, I taught mathematics in Brazil and visited a orphanage to play with the kids there. I have done bears and bats taxidermy. I have saved several kinds of animals from death such as caterpillars, jellyfishes, spiders, crickets and lizards. I have also released baby turtles and when doing so almost been eaten by chaquistes which are the mix of crickets and mosquitoes, i had 40 plus bites in each leg!!! (i counted them).

I have had some adventures while traveling such as being pursued down the street at midnight with my lady friend by three men and being alive and safe after it, being intoxicated in the middle of nowhere because i drunk a plant preserving liquid and some many others that i would love to tell in person.
