Travelling
Description
Hello! I'm Helena (or Lena, my nickname). I'm a Brazilian backpacker, and the Humankind is my passion. If there is something I love about travelling is the possibility to connect with the most different kinds of people, get to know about their lives and what makes them happy or sad. I'm also a coffee lover, so if one day we will be sitting together, talking about our dreams, plans and backgrounds, I'll probably be having a coffee - and will happilly offer myself to make you a coffee as well. For the last 3 years, I lived in New Zealand in a Working Holiday experience, and now I'm looking for a new adventure in Germany. I can communicate fluently in English, Portuguese and Spanish, I have a basic level of French and I want (and need) to learn German. I can't wait to meet you and to surprise myself with the amazing stories I'll hear from you!

What else ...
If you like movies, we're already best friends! But I'm a big fan of deep conversations, where we can exchange our personal wisdom at a profound level. I go along with animals and kids very well, and love activities in groups. I usually try to connect with people that are different from me, so I can always be at a challenge to learn something new. I don't eat meat super often, so would be easy to live at a vegan/vegetarian environment.
