I do have various interests and passions.

I really like sports: former rugby union player (scrum half), kendo practioner and rugby trainer (coached a rugby seven female team).
I enjoy good stories and interesting conversations.
I like travelling and experimenting new food and drinks (I do make an amazing caipirinha, btw).
I also have a banana costume that I like wearing every now and then for random occasions and/or/not exclusively for parties.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After years of inactivity, here I am once again!
I am moving to Berkeley as a Research Scholar, and I am a bit lost.
So, while I am looking for a proper location and a definitive housing solution, I thought I could ask for the help of some kind Couchsurfers.
