About Me
CURRENT MISSION
living the opportunities and not second guessing
ABOUT ME
I'm a 21 year old Brazilian born and bread in the sunny coast of northeastern Brazil. I'm currently studying in Lyon, France and I never miss a chance to scape for a weekend - or longer - somewhere unsual, always looking for nice company and new surroundings.
PHILOSOPHY
When the heart speaks, the mind finds it indecent to object.
Kundera(1929)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm thrilled by the idea of a network of people with the main purpose of sharing experiences and getting to know the world through others and perhaps a bit of ourselves on the way. My intent in CS is to contribute to that goal.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Looking foward to one!
Interests
Languages, rock climbing, hiking, views, funky music, cultural diversity, different pubs and travelling, skiping the touristy, learning new words, not knowing exacting what I'm eating and always surprising myself of how hospitable people can be.

Teach, Learn, Share
I would like to learn how to speak new languages, even it's just basic words.
Would like to share a bit of Brazilian music, showing some samba and bossa nova.
