Hey, I’m Claudia Elisabete!

Vegan · Wildomar · Joined in October 2022

I am originally from Brazil, living in CA since 2005. I have recently moved to the Inland Empire area from Orange County during the pandemic after buying this house. I have since rented rooms but it can be hard to find vegan roommates. I am easy going and like to make sure people feel as comfortable as possible when I host anyone. In the moment as I work towards building my nutrition business, I have not been very social, but I typically spend a lot of time with my friends. I was a young mother and my children are a grown up now. I transitioned into a vegetarian diet from vegan beginning in 2008, been doing this for a long time and it is very easy for me at this point.

My Lifestyle

Love waking up early and do some movement. Working from home over the last couple of years have been extremely challenging as I used to love working with lots of people in the clinic, but I like not having to commute and polluting less. I am an ethical vegan and extremely careful everything I buy to avoid animal cruelty.

Fun Facts About Me

I went to Europe in 1999 and wondered around several countries. I lived with diasporas of several continents and countries, having friends from all over the world before social media. When I moved to the US I worked in an exotic bird store where I learned a lot about parrots and also learned how to groom their nails and beaks, I also learned how brutal and wrong this industry is and ended rescuing many birds to find homes. My last rescues still live with me as it is very difficult to find descent homes for parrots.

Hobbies & Interests

I love traveling, hiking, going to the beach, going to samba parties with my Brazilian friends, going to any parties with my friends. I am not a drinker though, if my friends want to drink I am usually the DD.

Favourite Books, Music & Movies

I usually do not watch movies, I like documentaries and philosophy lectures, I don't think I can pinpoint just a few, there are so many great books and movies out there that I have experienced. I also love all kinds of music, but classics, 80s, bossa nova and samba are some of my favorites.
