About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Leave the Matrix

ABOUT ME

I'm a college student, Database Administrator by profession, love to meet people and cultures. Good sense of humor, very kind, helpful and peaceful. Love the nature, parties, specialy at peoples houses, where I can feel comfortable to have good conversations (But I like clubs, too :P). I never leave anybody in trouble, it's not my kind.

PHILOSOPHY

1 - BE POSITIVE. Positivity changes lives, makes people happier and things easier.
2 - HAPPINESS IS CHEAP. You don't need money to do the most amazing things in life, only friends and positivity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't usually go to the CS events arround, but I love to travel and host people. By hosting, I mean getting to know, showing town and hanging out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've traveled using CS only once to Rio de Janeiro with my sister, it was the most amazing experience of out lives.
And I hosted 3 people so far, each one of them, awesome.

Interests

I love to talk, learn from people, how they live, how things are where they live, also love to tell people about our special brazilian way. Love music (of all kinds, every music has it's moment), playing guitar, good vibrations. As a born geek (not that much anymore), I like geek culture and playing videogames. Partner for all kind of parties.

Books: Paulo Coelho, DaVinci Code, GoT... I'm not reading much lately.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a wonderful time in buenos aires staying in a hostel for a week with an Italian friend. We met not just people from Argentin but from all latin america, it's hard to count how many things I learned there.
Another great event i went was Psicodália (http://www.psicodalia.mus.br/en/), it's a 5 days camp at a huge farm with an average of 6.000 people from all places. Everybody I met there were very open minded and kind, the best vibration I ever felt in my life. This event happens once a year and since I went for the first time, I wanna go in all of them for the rest of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn new languages and I can teach some things. I can teach guitar and ukulele, slackline, and portuguese, of course.
