Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Take my time to see the world without any hurries. Keep collecting memories.
Learn something of every angle place I visit. Take the best of every person I get to meet.
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy-going, open-minded person with an adventurous spirit and a curious state of mind.
I used to be an entrepreneur and run a podcast show but now I'm a free-spirited consultant (one of the nice ones).
When I tell you I'm curious, I really mean it. My sister always tells me to stop touching everything.
I love food. I love to travel. I love capoeira and music. And I'd love to meet you!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
If there's to be one complain about modern tourism, I think, it would be the fact that one can visit a country and take nice pictures about certain spots and attractions, but very few people actually get to see and live the country and understand how it culturally works. Therefore, I believe Couchsurfing enables travelers to see the world though the eyes of locals and have a close contact. That's something no travel agency offers.
As of May 2019: I'm eager to start hosting surfers. I'll finish my Croatia-Bosnia trip, spend two more weeks in Germany and then I'll be ready to have you guys over in my cozy downtown apartment I share with two friends :)
Interests
Besides traveling, I am passionate about literature and music. Entrepreneurship and language learning. I am trying to be more sportive than before, so I began training capoeira in 2015 and it's been the best decision ever. Going into my fourth corda (which is like belts compared to asian martial arts) and looking forward to learn more.
I'm a major in Business Management and Journalism.
I created and hosted a #1 Podcast show for the latinamerican market.
I love to read.
I could talk for ages, so it's ok if you tell me to shut up (But I'm a good listener too tho)
I did musical theater as a kid but stopped when I was 10, so in a parallel world there's a me who's singing in theaters.

Music, Movies, and Books
I have discovered that I don't have an specific taste neither for music, literature or movies. Open to whichever genre and style :) But I do assure you I LOVE MUSIC, so it's a nice topic to talk about too.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived in Hamburg with a german family a whole year.
I've slept in the Amazon Jungle.
I worked for a radio station in Germany.
I created a podcast show that went to be No. 1.
Learning how to find your belly button without seeing it. 😂
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm not really sure about what I can teach, but I guess you always learn about the people you meet. On the other side, I'm always open to new things and experiences.
I believe travelling is the best teacher.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Personal experiences plus a bunch of topics on politics, literature, music (I do love music), technology, history. I can talk about a lot of topics and I am always open to learn!
