I'm a PhD student who spent a good part of life dedicating myself to literature studies, so my travel experience is not big enough yet. However, I have tried to give myself more to travel, especially to places of great cultural and historical importance.
(Yes, my English is bad, but I'm studying hard enough to improve it! Thank you for your patience.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spent a good part of my life dedicating myself to Argentine literature studies, so my travel experience is not big enough yet. However, I have tried to give myself more to travel, especially to places of great cultural and historical importance.
I believe the best way to really get to know a place is to try to share the same experiences as the people who live in it, so I was very happy when I found couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survive in spite of my mind (hauhauhau)
Serious now, I think that was read Don Quixote de la Mancha, one of the best experience of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach portuguese language, learn about other languages and share some culture of Brazil.
Besides, I consider myself a good cook and will do my best to get my guests to know the cuisine of my region made by me.
I really enjoy conversing in other languages, as well as learning and sharing experiences. Besides, I like bars and I would really like to have a beer in the bars near my house, which are really nice. Since I live with the university scholarship, I do not always have the money for it, but whenever we can, it will be a pleasure.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have an extra bedroom in my apartment with a double bed. I can also provide bed linen, bath and pillows.
However, as I work at home, I need the day free to take care of my obligations.
