I am a Historian and an English teacher. I am also a certified tour guide and I have been working in Florianópolis for over 8 years. I've lived abroad in the USA, Belgium and Colombia, so, in addition to Portuguese, I speak English, French and Spanish. I was lucky enough to participate in many bike tours, walking tours and guided trails while traveling the world and these experiences are great inspirations and references for my work. I'm looking forward to showing you around!
