I'm a rather quiet, simple and slow paced person, that enjoy the small things in life and require very little to be happy. I'm also a little absent-minded, so more than often you'll catch a glimpse of me lost in my mind, looking at nowhere...

While somewhat looking for some adrenaline and adventure, I'm always running away from crowds and loud places, at the same time. Going against the flow. I just love calm and peace so much. Don't get me wrong, I'm far from being a loner (In fact, I hate being alone for long periods), and from time to time I enjoy something more agitated, but I can think and interact better in small groups, without that much noise. I think that's why I love so much being outdoors. Just as much as meeting new people and all the amazing stories they have.

I'm one of those people who believe every single person has the power to change the world. Little by little. One thing at a time.

I don't smoke nor drink, and I don't make a fuss about it at all. Who wants to drink, drink. Who wants to smoke, smoke. Who doesn't, don't. It's that simple :)

Traveling around the world is a childhood dream, and with couchsurfing maybe it will become easier to acomplish.

Ah, and I'm openly gay :)

Sou uma pessoa calma, simples, e de ritmo lento, que gosta das coisas simples da vida. Também sou levemente distraído, então não são cenas incomuns me ver viajando na maionese, olhando pro nada...

Ao mesmo tempo que gosto de uma aventura e um pouco de adrenalina, tenho pavor de multidões e muito barulho. Vou contra o fluxo. Gosto muito de paz e de calma. Não quer dizer que eu seja um solitário (na verdade, odeio ficar sozinho por longos períodos), e que as vezes não goste de algo mais agitado, mas interajo melhor em grupos pequenos, em locais silenciosos. Talvez por isso goste tanto de atividades outdoor (embora seja bastante amador). Tanto quanto conhecer pessoas novas e todas as histórias de vida que tem :)

Sou dessas pessoas que acredita que todas as pessoas tem o poder de mudar o mundo. Pouco a pouco. Uma coisa de cada vez.

Não bebo nem fumo, e não faço alarde por conta disso. Quem quiser beber, beba. Quem quiser fumar, fume. E quem não quiser, não faça. É simples assim.

Viajar o mundo é um sonho de criança, e quem sabe com o couchsurfing ele não fica mais fácil de ser realizado...

Ah, e sou abertamente gay :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm a enthusiast of the idea of Couchsurfing from the moment I found it existed. I think it's a trully amazing way of connecting people. Being in touch with so many people from so man cultures enlightens you. Since then, I've been to a couple of CS meetings, and had a great time! Also had great times hosting people, and showing them the city around.

Intereses

I like to spend my time in places where I can detach from the madness of everyday lives. I love hiking, diving, sightseeing... and company is always appreciated (my close friends hate outdoor activities :p). I'm the kind of guy that if you show up at my house with a backpack calling me for a crazy adventure, I'll be ready to go in a second.

When I'm struck at home, I like to spend my time gaming, in the internet, or hanging out with close friends. Not a huge reader, but I appreciate a recommended book sometimes.

I practice meditation, reiki, and love to learn the ways people have to achieve a peaceful mind and body. I also love to learn ways to live a environmental friendly life, save energy, and reuse materials at home.

I'm the worst cook in the world, but a liver issue pushed me toward learning to cook low/no fat meals. It's always nice to learn a new recipe that I can eat without almost dying :).

Música, películas y libros

Musically, I have a strong connection with Rock and Metal, but I have an open mind for other Genres.

Movies, I don't get to see a lot... but I don't have much patience to watch classics, vintage, or complex movies... a good comedy or action blockbuster is fine for me.

About the books, I like especially fantastic books, Like Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Every new different landscape I get to see personally comes out to be amazing... I can never get tired of that...

But I found a Noctiluca bloom once while doing an field trip. Everybody wanting to go home and I was there, playing with the brighty blue flashing algae, refusing to leave.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you some portuguese. I also have knowlege about biology, especially in the zoology/ecology/evolution areas (I wish I knew a little more about botanics), and experience with teaching. I also know a lot about the sea, due to my specialization in marine biology. And something about the Chakra system due to Reiki. Just ask me!

And for learning, the sky is the limit!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Well, I can offer some portuguese informal classes. Or some breathing exercises, reiki sessions. I'm also a good listener, and can give directions to anywhere around you need to go.
