~~~Currently in Brazil!
I’m traveling through Latin America for few months now. Have visited Peru, Bolivia and currently in Brazil!
I would like to meet you! Let’s talk 🇧🇷🇵🇪🇧🇴

🇧🇷 Cheguei ao Brasil no início de novembro! Pretendo ficar pelo menos 4 meses. Explorar a cultura, conhecer pessoas e aprender português :)

Ola!

🐶I have cute little dog at my family’s place. His name is Simba. I looove him and miss him so much now when traveling.

🤸🏼‍♀️I love meeting people. I’m very friendly and love to be around people.
I love exploring new places. New cultures. New language. I love listening to life stories. Love trying new stuff! Like trying the local food, trying new hobbies.

🍃I’m passionate about nature. I love hiking and exploring the nature around! All kind of animals like birds, butterflies, lizards, mammals, animal’s traces, and whatever we can find and explore around us.

♟️I just learned chess (thanks to Kevin I’ve met through Couchsurfing!!!) so I’m very happy to find opportunities to play. I would be thrilled to play and practice with you!

🎨I can seat for hours with cup of tea or hot chocolate and drew, making paper collages, write...

🕊️I believe in peace. I would love to share my personal perspective about the world and to share about my personal life. It’s important for me to be hosted in a place where people are open to listen and mind flexible about the world.
If you’re interest, curious and flexible, I would love to meet and hang out.

🚭I’m not smoking or drinking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, traveling is about getting to know the people that lives in the country and in the area I’m traveling in. Hearing stories, and spending time in the local places with local people.

In addition, I want to learn español e Portuguese. I already know and understand a little thanks to traveling in Peru, and speaking with local people.

I’m very flexible traveler and I would more than like to join any activity you would want to do together! Outdoor activities, music festivals and events, art making, cooking together, spending time reading poetry, sports, and more…
I would love to hear from you! I’m open to learn new things as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

I always love getting to know new music artists, songs and albums!
I love listening to lots of music genres. Depends on my current mood. For example, I love listening to folk, country, samba and bossa nova, Israeli music. Music from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s.

For example: Loren Noyman, ABBA, Perotá Chingó
Gazoz, Kaveret, Arik einshtin, Meir Ariel, and small Israeli ensembles.

Same for movies and books.

I mostly read in Hebrew, but trying to read more in English. I love romance and drama novels, nature books and also psychology and sociology philosophy books.

I’m not a big movies watcher - but I love watching good documentary films, nature films, and sometimes sitcoms comedy shows, cause it always fun to smile and laugh :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went solo traveling and hiking in Bulgaria in 2023, for the first time!
And a year ago, in December 2024, for my 23th birthday, I went solo hiking in one of the most special mountains in southern israel, Timna.

Teach, Learn, Share

Meditation techniques - breathing and mindfulness.

📓Journaling exercises. Great way for me to reconnect to myself. Understanding my emotions and feelings.
