I am not familiar how to post here, but I wanted to say hi and see who is interested in talking to a Brazilian girl  

Reno and Lake Tahoe is 4 hours drive from Bay Area. I have many people that visit me from there because it's a great place to visit and the road is not bad. You can take 80 or 50 that is a more scenic drive.  
I was at the Lake last weekend with my paddle board and the water was bit cold, but not so bad.  

Send me a email and let's see how we get along for you to make a visit
