I'm a communicative and positive person, and I like to keep the good vibe when relating with people. I consider myself a happy and easygoing person. And there are two things that make me even happier: visiting new places (any new place, because I always get to learn something new from experiences and, mostly, from people) and trying new foods (I love to try different stuff and understand what it has to do with the local people and habits).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that CS is an opportunity to get the best from this local experience, meeting people who live the city in a non touristic way. It's a great chance of exchanging and learning, and also to travel in a cheaper way. (Travel cheap, travel more)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like music in general and I love shuffle in Spotify, I appreciate surprises. I like listening to local music when in a country, so please give some suggestions if you can. About Brazilian music, I suggest Caetano Veloso, Mutantes, Novos Baianos, Gilberto Gil, Luiz Gonzaga, Felipe Cordeiro (for a start with some variation).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the Etna volcano in Sicília (Italy) was a remarkable experience. Both for the fear I was feeling (I was afraid it could erupt at any moment) and for the stunning landscape I had the opportunity to see. It was nothing alike any other place I've been to. Living in Rome for 6 months in 2012 was algo a great learning and a fun and joyful experience. I loved each walking, each talking, each food and drink, each party I've been too. And I had the opportunity to live with Italians, which became a great daily learning process. Also being in Mexico for the "Dia de los mortos" (day of the dead) was an incredible unforgettable moment. It's a beautiful and very joyful celebration which touched me and made me rethink the way we deal with life and death. (Also a lot of amazing food!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook some Brazilian food and Id like to learn about local cuisine. And we could make a dinner together. :) I always like to chat and learn about differences of daily life, local habits and ways to deal with situations.
