ABOUT ME
I would describe myself as a citizen of the world and a passionate person. I'm from Brazil, where I spent most of my life, and I lived also in France and Italy before moving to Canada.
I try to enjoy the simple pleasures of life: a good meal, talking with family and friends, go to the movies... But then, to break the routine, I love traveling or going out to a new place.
PHILOSOPHY
Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I created my Couchsurfing account in 2008 but so far I used it just a few times.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've friends from many different countries and I already couched some of them. I live with my girlfriend and we like to host nice and interesting people.
Interests
I like to read and to follow the news to know what's going on in the world and because it's part of my field of studies. Other things that I appreciate include arts (theater, live shows, arts exhibition, cinema...), to cook (just in the weekends), outdoor activities and going out with friends at night or even just to enjoy a sunny day or to play games. In the summer I'd rather playing or doing something outside, but in the winter a board or card game with a few drinks would probably be a better option. Trying to keep myself in a reasonable shape, sometimes I practice badminton or soccer and I love to ski in the winter. That's definitively my favorite sport!

Music, Movies, and Books
In terms of music, I like many pop and rock groups (especially from the 80's) and different styles: indie, alternative and some classic. I also like some blues, jazz, classical music, bossa nova, lounge music and to chill out. In general, I like old music and tend to dislike most of new music that plays in the radios.
Basically, I like all kinds of movies except horror.
About books, a like the ones about politics, history, crimes and adventure.
