Hi there! I'm Thamy, a Brazilian dentist currently exploring opportunities in the United States. I recently completed my residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and am passionate about furthering my career in this field. I'm also an avid movie enthusiast and enjoy pet sitting in my free time. I'm looking forward to connecting with fellow travelers and sharing experiences through Couchsurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I believe in the power of travel to broaden horizons and connect people from different cultures. As a Brazilian dentist exploring opportunities in the United States, Couchsurfing offers me a unique way to immerse myself in new communities and gain a deeper understanding of American culture.

I am also excited about the prospect of meeting fellow travelers and sharing experiences. Whether it's exchanging stories over a cup of coffee or exploring a new city together, Couchsurfing allows me to connect with like-minded individuals and create meaningful memories.

Overall, I see Couchsurfing as more than just a place to stay; it's a platform for cultural exchange, personal growth, and forging connections that transcend borders.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a deep appreciation for music, movies, and books. Music has a way of lifting my spirits and setting the tone for my day. I enjoy a wide range of genres, from soothing classical melodies to upbeat pop tunes.

When it comes to movies, I'm a true cinephile. I love getting lost in a compelling story or being dazzled by stunning visual effects. Some of my favorite films are those that leave a lasting impression, sparking conversations long after the credits roll.

Books are another passion of mine. I love the way words can transport you to different worlds and perspectives, I'm always eager to dive into a good book and expand my horizons.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most rewarding experiences I've had was completing my residency in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. It was an intense and challenging journey that not only honed my skills as a dentist but also deepened my empathy and understanding for patients facing complex oral health issues. I had the privilege of working with a diverse range of patients, and being able to make a positive impact on their lives was truly fulfilling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe that teaching, learning, and sharing are integral parts of personal and professional growth. As a dentist, I have always been passionate about sharing my knowledge and skills with others, whether it's through mentoring colleagues or educating patients about oral health.

At the same time, I am a lifelong learner, always seeking new opportunities to expand my knowledge and expertise. Whether it's through attending conferences, taking courses, or engaging in research, I am committed to staying at the forefront of my field.

I also believe in the power of sharing ideas and experiences. Whether it's through writing articles, or simply engaging in conversations with others, I believe that sharing knowledge and insights is a powerful way to inspire and educate others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my knowledge and experiences as a Brazilian dentist and traveler. Whether it's sharing oral health tips, or answering any questions about dental care, I'm always happy to share my experiences.

I can share stories about my hometown, Ouro Preto, a beautiful and historical town in Brazil, known for its stunning colonial architecture and rich cultural heritage. I've also traveled to several places, including Prague, Munich, Cologne, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome, Vienna, Venice, Florence, Milan, Athens, Budapest, Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Punta del Este, Orlando, Indianapolis, and New York, and I'm eager to share my experiences and insights from these travels.

Additionally, I can share insights into Brazilian culture, cuisine, and language. I can also teach Portuguese phrases and share stories about life in Brazil.

Overall, I aim to be a respectful and engaging guest, eager to share my passions and learn from my hosts in return.
