I'm an effervescent person who really likes to travel around the world and meet people. I don't bear. However, I like Pina Colada and Caipirinha. I like rollerblading and skiing as much as possible, running and hiking. I've been to many counties before - on vacation or conferences. I've been teaching in universities in Brazil since 2007 - I just insert this information here to clarify that I have a job in Brazil. I'm single. I'm gay and because this I'm an opened mind person (vice-versa). I have been living alone in Rio de Janeiro because I prefer to maintain my house cleaner than share with other roommate who does not pay attention about to clean up our home. Notwithstanding, a clean place is really important for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like enjoying culture and local people when I travel. I prefer to save money to go to different cities and places than pay lots bucks to have a good room in an expensive hotel. I used to be in hostels last years and I could meet people from different places. I met in Hawaii a Brazilian guy who is on Couchsurfing. He introduced me two girls (Ann from Norway and Ella from Poland) - he met them here on Couchsurfing. After this experience, I decided to have an account here because these people were very very nice. I suppose I could meet more people like them here. I'm left length in Politics.
