About Me

A brazilian guy who lives in the south countryside of Brazil.

- I am a video editor. Love and hate the proffession
- I study trumpet. Its hard, loudy, but I love it. I started because I like reggae and jazz, but what a I really played was on brazilian carnival and some johnny cash stuff. And it was really fun :D
- Introspective but not shy guy. I really like to talk, for fun and serious too
- Meditation and Martial Arts are some of my interests. I hope that the next update i will be practicing karate
- brazilian music is beautiful. Im the rock guy who turns to love samba, forró, rap and reggae. But call me to a punk rock show or metal show. I will always love to get in the pogo!
- I am not vegetarian, but I'm not into meat food. I like veggie food =)
- Street music and small venues are the best shows.
- Love parties, but I'm not the party type.
- Soccer its awesome. I love talking about the South American Football. History, facts, funny things. I really like it. My soccer team is Internacional
- But I suck real hard paying it, its just for fun. Basketball and Volley are my sports
- Bycicle rides are awesome!
- I like animals.

I really like talk about music and movies. Really. Because I think art its the way that we can saw another perspective, another point-of-view about everything. Even if it is something that I dont like, I will talk about and try to listen/view by the point of view of another person.

Music is the universal language. Movies are the eyes of our society. Past, present and future.

And I love to laugh. I love people who are funny or fun to get along. And if you arent, I will like to make you laugh =)

Life is awesome.

I think its it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will do a trip to Europe in august 2017. I think its the best opportuniy to discover the couchsurfing. Me and my friend Lua want to explore the citys and we think the best way to explore anyplace is get info from people.

Things like:
that family restaurant that is typical and fair;
an outdoor party that is nice; a cool pub;
a nice park to walk;
that cafe that is simple but everyone love it.

Things like that.
I like to listen what the city means to others.
And then live a little bit there.

I think you can discover differente people and this can create a nice network to connect people with same interests or to know something very different. All experiencie is available with kind, fun and respect.
