About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Searching for my spaceship to come back to my planet

ABOUT ME

I always was curious to know if the truth was really outside. One day, I was bored and I start to looking for myself instead of waiting... and then I start travelling. First, around my city, then, all around my (huge) country and then around the world. About myself, the only way to know about me is, surprise, surprise, knowing me. I am probably the worst person to talk about myself after my grandma and my mother.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be as simple as possible, but not beyond that. I think people complicate too much the situations.

Also, I try to give little attention to small problems, and I try to recognize whether or not a problem is a small one. So I can save my energy for the big ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the moment, I contributed by signing in, but the fact is that I really believe on the couchsurfing philosophy.

Music: rock, grunge, punk rock, samba, bossa nova, folk and many others, that I think it is easier to tell what I don't like...

Books: I don't know why, but I don't read too much books. But I tell everyone to read, because it is important...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in Copacabana after midnight while it was raining!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach something about playing some instruments (guitar, bass, drums). I am not a musician, but I know how to play and I would be glad to teach it to someone. Besides, I could teach some math or physics and I am very patient to teach portuguese.

Recently I am learning about cooking (more than nudles!), so it would be cool if someone could teach me how some dish. I love languages, also, even if I don't have much time, I always like to learn something. In addition, feel free to show me local musicians, local good movies, history of the place, etc.
