About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to put a smile in my face to be positive most of the time, appreciating go to new places, understand new cultures and learn more about live unforgettable experiences with all kind of person!

ABOUT ME

i have a open mind and i want to be able to talk about everything, my very pleasure is travel around the world, visiting countries, cities and new places. Now i am available for coffee or drink becouse my house is too small and i live with my parents. I´m going frequently to Belo Horizonte (Capital of MG State) and my house is near of there, so if you need company to do something, shaking your body or spend time walking around, than you can count with me!
In my city, we have a famous alembic/farm called "Vale Verde", is a place who make brazilian "cachaça". It´s very nice if you like to drink and eat some tipical food from here. We also have very close (about 30km) the international mordern museum "Inhotim" (place that you must go at least one day). And i have a car, so i can go with you for some places and show our waterfalls, mountais, museums and parks.
I like learning about places, things, new habits, interesting people, take pictures, save memories and the most important thing: share it all!
So, that´s it! I´m here to help all the visitors and surfers of the world.
;)

PHILOSOPHY

Always bring and carry something in their experiences of travel. live and let live (with happiness), that's my philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host people, but now it´s more difficult because I live in a small apartment with my family, but if you really need a place to go, maybe i can help, talk to me and we see about it or certainly i can help you to find a place for you stay.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCES

Started in 2009 when i travelled for the south of Brazil and I surfed for a lot of places when i met incredible people from CS in Curitiba, Foz do Iguaçu, Florianopolis and Porto Alegre. After that, i hosted a french guy, a cool england girl, the ambassador of couchsurfing germany and some friends who live here in Brazil.
In another wonderful trip, i surfed in Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Santiago by couch another time: and it was amazing again, i made gorgeous friends who am i still in touch these days! My last, but not least couchsurfing experience was with the German Guy (who stayed in my house at the beggining) and when i went in Berlin he received my with the arms open and we had great times.
I really believe in CS way to make friends, find help, support and a place who is almost like our home, most of the time. It´s very magical this kind of "traveling".

Interests

I like knowing about other cultures, languages and customs, tipical food, dance, play sports, be linked to technology, buy stuffs, movies, series and etc.
If you can bring a memory (some souvenir) that goes to their culture, it will let me very happy. One more thing: I collect refrigerator magnets.
