About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I wanna change the world

ABOUT ME

Born in Brazil, moved to the USA. I miss my home country, but I also crave living in different places. I love languages, movies, traveling, meeting people. I have lived in Para de Minas, Brasilia, Nashville, Charlotte and Washington ... My plan is to expand this list to all continents.

PHILOSOPHY

You know March of the Penguins?!?! Whenever I doubt if this whole struggle to live is worth, I just think about the penguins... damn! They got it hard, but they wont give up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I meet world travelers, I stayed in couches before and I can try to host surfers. My place is small, so I need to make arrangements before I commit to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good!

Interests

Photography, films, outdoors activities such as camping, ciclying, swimming. I love to read, drink beer with friends, travel, and study languages.
