I am a Historian, finishing my doctorate. I'm 31 years old, I've been using Couchsurfing for a while and it's always been really good.

I was born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil. I have enjoyed traveling since I was very young, whether for fun or research.

I'm easy going, I like to walk around the cities I know, feeling "immersed" in the place.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I consider it a great way to get to know people and the place itself. I believe that Couchsurfing experience helps as a good reference.

Música, películas y libros

I like Brazilian and Latin music, but also pop, rock...

I read a lot of History and Literature books. My favorite novel is Anna Karenina, but I really like Clarice Lispector, Gabriel Garcia Marquéz, Dostoiéviski... I research contemporary Latin America and Human Rights, so I read books in this area.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I really like some travel experiences, like climbing a volcano in Chile was incredible, cycling down a mountain in Bolivia, train trips through Europe.

But it was also great to live for a few months more peacefully in Washington and Buenos Aires.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I like to learn where local people actually eat, have fun, go, besides tourist places, and that's something I like to learn with Couchsurfing. I could help the same for anyone visiting São Paulo.
