ABOUT ME

http://www.facebook.com/brucip?sk=photos

I want to have fun, learn and make other's people lives better.

Travelling provides it all...

I travel like St Christopher !
You are the hardest of hardcore travelers, and may one day be our patron saint. There is no challenge that is too much for you, but don't get crazy, because you are not immortal...yet.
What type of traveler are you?

PHILOSOPHY

The Ethic/Religious definition which describes me best would be Humanist Agnostic. I think each human beeing's goal is to make the world a better place somehow, in his/her own point of view. As there's no absolute truth, if each one shares a little bit, we can have a good middle term.
And so the one's who come after me can have better opportunities and so on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I got to know CS on a backpacking travel in the Central Zone of Brazil, from Lorella, an Italian teacher. She was traveling in Brazil by herself, beeing hosted by Brazilians associates of CS.
When she told me about this community i got really excited, cuz its a great way to travel, know different people and have lots of new experiences !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Did "butt surfing" in front of Brazil's National congress
-Slept alone, only with a sleeping bag, on bad weather, outside the farm i was staying in the Brazilian Pantanal, to see the sunrise. Which was absolutely beatiful.
-Traveled alone, without any planning or hotel booking, for 22 days. Visited 10 cities, in 4 states. More then 6000 km inside buses.
-Quit a job I didnt like, without having any other in view.
