About Me

CURRENT MISSION

promote the freedom of everybody, to get a better world!

ABOUT ME

I am chemist, I do research in medicinal chemistry and I also teach Chemistry. I also participate in voluntary work to try to help the people who need it most, to discuss about the role and responsibilities of science, to learn about life. I am always trying to do some sport, I like to move the body, although sometimes I am lazy ha! I am usually in good mood, I enjoy being with very different people, sharing varied activities (from just a nice conversion while eating until excursions, parties, or museums!), always open to listen proposals and also offering options!
I would really like to learn during all my life so for me it is really important to keep moving, meeting, listening and feeling new cultures, new people, new places; remembering and sharing the things that I already have inside to continue growing.

PHILOSOPHY

nothing in particular, all in general...
just to be and to let the others be!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to connect people who seem to be interested for me… mixing cultures and traditions, languages, creating nets of experiences interchanges...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted in some countries (Poland, Italy) by wonderfull people...but only a couple of times...
I have been participating in the couchsurf meetings in Olomouc, where there is a wonderful group of people :); some permanent and many foreigners changing :)

Interests

I am an open person who likes many very different things. But I can mention some that I like more! I really enjoy the nature, so any walk in natural places is great for me! In fact I love kayaking in the Parana river, making some little fire in the island at night, cultivating some vegetables... I also enjoy the good cinema, music (specially alive!), and parties where to dance without restrictions!
I like and encourage social events where we can share a good time and also share something more: ideas, thoughts, art, ...
I really like travelling, knowing new places, talking to its people, knowing its traditions, tasting its food, learning its culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossing the Parana river by kayak a very huge ship was against and really near to our small boat...that was really frightening!
The hot water in a little lake on the top of a mountain in Bolivia touching all my body...was amazing...
How the kids take care of each others in some poor neighborhood of my place...
I could mention many things...I suppose that I am too amazed! ha!
