I'm 34 years old, and I'm a friendly and educated person.
I have a girlfriend and we like to travel so much, but when we're on trip, we usede to search for local culture, which means not sightseeing places, tryin' to find out the world behind the tourism bussiness, just seeing the essencial and real one in culture, people, food and archtecture.
I really like to discover new stuffs, people and experiences.
I make independent short-cut movies and teach photography.
Me and my girlfriend have a small and independent cultural centre in the city of Guarulhos that usually presents theater plays, concerts, exibitions etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

And I also like to travel, my plans for the future are always about planning the new trip
