Very good experience with Paula who was very helpful in the daily tasks. I wish the Willy Wallace Hostel could be a bit more "the place to be" for her. Left earlier than expected. YAnn

Had a good time in Willy Wallace Hostel and met awesome people there. Due to changes in my university schedule I had to leave 10 days before, talked about in advance. In certain ways it wasn't how I expected but it was a great learning experience nonetheless. Thank you Yann and everyone there for welcoming me :)

About me as an author

Olá, meu nome é Paula Félix. Nascida em Brasília, me mudei para o Rio de Janeiro aos 12 anos, mas ainda não perdi o sotaque. Desde criança, sempre fui muito curiosa, lia muitos livros, perguntava muito. Aos 18 anos, coloquei uma mochila nas costas e fui viajar a Europa. Hoje, são mais de 25 países visitados, sempre seguindo a linha de mochilão e procurando absorver o máximo da cultura daquele lugar. Meu objetivo é compartilhar o que aprendo durante minhas viagens para que outras pessoas possam ter as boas experiências que tive.

Background

Education

I've graduated high school in the United States and I'm currently majoring in Journalism at PUC-Rio. Lived in Amsterdam for six months studying Anthropology and Political Science as well. My dream job is to produce documentaries while doing what I love, which is travelling. :)

Work experience

Worked as a front desk at a hostel in Copacabana, in Rio de Janeiro. Did an internship working as a TV reporter for my university TV channel, TV PUC. I currently help managing my family's Airbnb.

Travel experience

When I was 18 I decided I wanted to go travelling in Europe, so I worked to save the money and went on a two-month trip to five countries. I haven't stopped since. Been to 22 countries, four continents, and counting...
