    Hi! My name is Tatiana, I'm 40, married and I live with my two daughters, aged 3 and 12. I work very hard as a doctor but I m free weekends and my big dream is to be fluent in English. And that's why I'd like to host happy, easy-going native English-speaking women.

    A little bit about me: I'm keen on travelling, eating out, being in nature, playing guitar, learning English and taking care of my daughters.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    My house is located 2 hours from Rio de Janeiro, 3 hours from São Paulo and 2 hours from Minas Gerais, a privileged location. My weekends are free for explore around. I live near the two main airports in Brazil which would facilitate trips to another state like northeast but the region that I live in is very rich speaking of exuberant nature.
    I do not travel much to the big capitals like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo but I can help if you have interest, I prefer to explore the beauties of the cities of the interior

    As my dream is to be fluent in English and as my profession does not allow long trips to learn in another country I decided to try to learn by spendind time with a native for a while. As I have two daughters I would like them to also learn the language and nothing better than the opportunity to be close with a native speaker daily routine at home.
    My week is very hurry. My week is accelerated and therefore any help will be welcome, I admire who knows cooking, dancing, I admire anyone who plays an instrument of music, knowing how to drive can finally help in a family routine. Changing experiences, abilities could be simply amazing
