I’m a half-asian half-world mixture, born in Brazil and raised in São Paulo city. I love language hacking and discovering the mechanisms behind things. And love meeting new cultures through people. I always had the impression I was a global citizen and now I’m working more and more towards this as a way of behaving and living life. My chosen purpose is to be a gear in the world machine and help it improve each day

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First arrived on Couchsurfing trying to find a last minute shelter to attend COP 24, but ended up staying to have the opportunity to travel in this crazy new format of sharing and exchanging!

Music, Movies, and Books

I don’t really have a favorite music genre, so long as it involves a beautiful voice singing. But I tend to like lyric classic rock music, some pop songs, and movie OST.

My favorite movie for a long time during my teens was Pirates of the Caribbean and The Phantom of the Opera. Nowadays I have to go back to my roots though and stick with the classic Lion King. If it comes to animation series, I would definitely go with Steven Universe, Avatar, Gravity Falls and Star vs the Forces of Evil though!
