Description

Portugese but born and raised in Switzerland, what attracted me first were languages. Thanks to that interest, I started to travel by myself when I was 17.

I was able to live wonderful experiences, as doing a backpacking Europe tour over 3 months, living in Japan for more than a year, working in Disneyland Paris and many more! As of today, after many years of preparation, I left everything 4 years ago to live my biggest dream of a vanlife. Living on the roads now with my 2 doggies/Travel partners.

Through Couchsurfing and also spontaneous encounters, I was able to host and meet hundreds people from all over the world over the past 17 years, and I still keep in touch with most of them.

I can guarantee a big exchange of stories, culture, food and conversations. I'm a loyal friend who will never forget a person who had an impact, even the smallest, on my life. If we meet and become friends, we'll stay friends forever!

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
Languages are what leaded me to travel all these years. I've been giving private portugese and French lessons in Japan. I also was an aupair for 6 months in an American family who was looking for a French speaking lady.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I did tourism and languages studies in a Switzerland's University.

Apart of that, I always wanted to try new things, which took me to do a lot of different jobs :
- tourist guide,
- event hostess,
- animator,
- vacation camp organiser,
- translator,
- waitress,
- seller,
- aupair,
- animal care taker,
- camping manager,
- shop manager,
- theme park operator,
- hotel receptionist,
- housekeeper,
- irish pub bartender
- gardener
etc

Part of the biggest experiences I had: I've been a zumba teacher for years in hotels and fitnesses, I worked in Disneyland Paris for almost a year and also managed a 3 ha camping/glamping site in Netherlands for 2 summer seasons.

I can say that I'm not afraid of new challenges. I can adapt quickly, I'm autonomous but enjoy working in a team, joyful and very energetic 💪

Autres infos...

I have 2 female dogs who are my travel partners. We live in our van since early 2021.

We've been doing Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Ireland , UK, Germany, Denmark and Sweden with the van so far (but I've already been to 42 countries). We enjoy taking our time while exploring a country.

With this daily life, we learned how to enjoy simple matters to the fullest. We love hiking together, and when we're stopping in a spot, I enjoy to just admire the view while listening some music, reading a book or playing guitar. I have a big passion for photography. Most of the time we're outside and very active 🏃‍♀️🐕
