CURRENT MISSION

talk to learn, learn to live

ABOUT ME

I like thinking about things, and imagine myself as a man of learning. I try not to miss an oportunity to learn something, anything. And when I do, I sometimes need some time alone to digest what I have learned.

I also enjoy a good laugh, and always encourge people to cracj a joke or whatever. When I feel good and comfortable, I get very playful and spread the energy I have around me.

When I travel I enjoy to see observe how societies are today, instead of how they were as in antique ruins. If there is political activism going on, I enjoy very much be there and talk to people, share experiences. Afterall, life is better as long as you try to make it happen, through organized\community activism.

It seems I have skipped the basics, going into the deep stuff :) I'm a student, doing my MA in sociology. An ex-music player, a newbie (and ambitious) cook, a wannabe music critique, and a slight hyperactive person trying to slow down my pace.

PHILOSOPHY

Most of the time I feel like people do not get engaged in relstions that are emotional, like we dont express our emotions, or rather we do not feel in social relations. The solution I have come up for a better world, and that can be used in everday life, is to expressive. When people express their feelings, they come to experience more, I think.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have heard of couchsurfing a few years back, when I was travelling in sudamerica. I haven't been using it much since then, but with new traveling plans, I made it my business to update my profile, couch information and all..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not so much, I have hosted people and met travelers along the way.

Interesses

I am huge on Music. Play me some 70s motown and soul, and I shake my hips uncontrolably.
I think of myself as a sort of social science geek; but I am into literature (south american lit and contemporary amrican lit being my favorite) dancing and music making. I get really excited when I talk about these, especially from a sociological perspective.

I also cook, and I will be happy to cook for you.
