About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people from different backgrounds, professions, etc.

ABOUT ME

I´m a Brazilian living in NYC. I'm drug and drama free, spontaneous and fun loving. I really enjoy getting to know different people, exchanging experiences and exploring all the good things NYC has to offer. Back in Brazil I was always in touch with exchange students of Rotary International and expatriated executives and always did a lot of volunteering. I love the 'citizen of the world' mindset. I may show you around, depending on my work schedule. And maybe you'll meet my boyfriend (he's around sometimes) and other close friends of mine.

PHILOSOPHY

Sharing is caring.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now I´ve been hosting incredible people. Hope soon I´ll visit all these great new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The last months were intense and wonderful. I've hosted great people from different corners of the world, that I´m happy to call friends now. Outstanding!!

Interests

People!!! Photography, arts (museums, ballet, opera), ecology (let´s go green!), science in general, cooking with friends, gardening (still learning how to do it in USA), watching sports (soccer, olympic games, NBA, ice skating), meditation and spiruality, among many others. I´m an eternal curious and eager learner. I enjoy the simple things of life and the fancy ones too, but they are not my priority in life and lifestyle.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list and I'm really eclectic. It all depends on my mood. Like comedies (The Hangover, Bruno), suspense (Orphan, The Perfect Getaway), drama (The Blind Side) and biography (Temple Grandin). Pop music (Madonna, Rihanna), rock (U2, BonJovi), jazz (BBKing and others), international (Shakira, Mana, Eros Ramazzotti), lounge, electronic, rap and hip hop... A bit of everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving in Fernando de Noronha - Brazil. Unforgettable! Specially with that baby shark following me... oops!!
