My name is Tainá, I'm a Brazilian from Minas Gerais, currently studying biology and participating in an exchange program in Jaen, southern Spain. I'm in love with animals, wild life and nature in general (but also specifically, as right now I work as an ecologist).
💃🏻📖🌱
Beyond my studies and work, I have a lot of passions. I'm a dancer, capoeira fighter, sports person, singer, guitar and pandeiro player, writer, poet.. and a person willing to exchange as much expierences as possible.
✈️🌍🌊
Traveling is one of my greatest passions! I love exploring new cultures, meeting people from different backgrounds, and learning new perspectives on life, while also sharing my own. I believe that each place has unique stories to tell, and I am with my heart open to experience what life has to offer me.
🏡☀️
I consider myself both a homeperson and an explorer, but when traveling, I prefer to spend my time exploring the surroundins and natural life. Not really a party person (not fond of drinking or smoking, but I don't have problems with coexisting with people who do that!). I'm a chill, peacefull, respectfull, organized and easy going person who wants to share stories and life experiences, for I want to grow into a better person in every step I take.

Mi nombre es Tainá y soy brasileña, de Minas Gerais. Actualmente estudio biología y participo de un programa de intercambio en Jaén, en el sur de España. Soy una persona enamorada de la vida: los animales, la vida silvestre y la naturaleza en general (pero también de manera específica, ya que ahora trabajo como ecóloga).
💃📖🌱
Más allá de mis estudios y trabajo, tengo muchas pasiones. Soy bailarina, luchadora de capoeira, deportista, cantante, guitarrista y pandearista, escritora, poeta... y una persona dispuesta a intercambiar tantas experiencias como sea posible.
✈️🌎🌊
¡Viajar es una de mis grandes pasiones! Me encanta explorar nuevas culturas, conocer personas de diferentes orígenes y aprender nuevas perspectivas sobre la vida, mientras también comparto la mía. Creo que cada lugar tiene historias únicas que contar, y estoy con el corazón abierto para experimentar lo que la vida tiene para ofrecerme.
🏡☀️
Me considero tanto una persona hogareña como una exploradora, pero cuando viajo, prefiero pasar mi tiempo explorando los alrededores y la vida natural. No soy muy de fiestas (no me gusta beber ni fumar, pero no tengo problemas en convivir con personas que lo hagan). Soy una persona tranquila, pacífica, respetuosa, organizada y de trato fácil, que quiere compartir historias y experiencias de vida, porque quiero crecer como mejor persona en cada paso que doy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want an affordable way to travel where I can meet interesting people to share experiences with :)

Interests

I love travelling and getting to know different people, cultures and being in nature, for it helps me connect with a sense of peace and belonging. I love music, which is something my culture has an abundance to offer, but also learning new styles. I'm in on most kinds of sports (fighting, dancing, group sports) and also in any kind of chill activity (reading, writing, painting, meditating, yoga..)
