Hey, my name's Antônio Carlos but you can call me just Carlos. I'm just a happy person who loves travelling and camping, among other things. I also really like hitchhiking, but I only did it like 4 times on a road that I know very well, so it was kind of easy. I'd really enjoy to do that in some strange roads.

Now I live in Porto Alegre, but I was born in the countryside and lived there for almost my whole life. I came here to study Civil Engineering, but I changed to Computer Engineering. I love to meet people from everywhere and get to know their experiences and dreams, because that makes me understand a little bit more about life and helps me to broaden my worldview.

In 2019 I lived in Auckland - New Zealand for 6 months. I always loved there, mostly cuz of The Lord of The Rings films, and when I got the chance to go there I took it. It was just awesome!
I met a lot of cool people from different countries, and with some of them I made some road trips around both the North and the South Island of the country. I hope I can go there again some day.

I know how to do some amazing desserts, it's my specialty actually. My favorite literature is the Tolkien's Universe, all of it, not just Hobbit and The Lord of The Rings. Believe me, these are just a little piece of the whole story. But when I can't read or just don't want to, I'm always listening to podcasts, from the most varied subjects.

I already hosted some people at my place, and it's amazing to know others from different countries and with different cultures. I hope one day when I finally get to travel more I can stay with some really nice people

I think the rest we can talk when we meet each other.

Have a nice trip!!

音乐、电影和书籍

As I said before, I really like Tolkien's literature. My favorite book from him is Silmarillion.
I literally like almost every movie I watch, but lately my favorite one is Mr Nobody, because it reflects a lot of thoughts that I have.
And for the music part, I like almost everything, really. Classic music, classic rock, national rock, punk, funk and the list is big. I also play and practice piano sometimes, at least when I find one, because I only have a keyboard. The feel... it's not the same :/

教，学，和分享

I enjoy making tutorials about stuff that I really know about and study.
I like to learn and study about languages, the differences between them, the process or translation and the various types of accent. The way you feel about different languages and the way you change your personality depending on what language you are speaking.
