I consider myself a calm, patient, respectful, and altruistic person. I am a little bit introverted person too. I am a knowledge-seeker; I spend most of my free time reading, trying to understand how things work, or thinking about how to solve real-world problems.

When I not studying, I like to go out with friends, watch movies, and practice some sports, such as kung-fu, tennis, and soccer. Whenever it is possible, I do some volunteer work as well.

I am graduated in Computer Science, which I really love. I am always trying to learn new things in this huge area.

I don't drink and don't smoke.

CURRENT MISSION:
1) Be a positive influence on the world;
2) Meet the ones who are a positive influence on the world;

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I expect to meet new people, have new experiences, learn new things, and share the things I know.

Interests

Meet new people, going out with friends, reading, movies, computer science, soccer, kung-fu, tennis.

Music, Movies, and Books

Until now, my favorite TV show was an anime called Gundam Wing. I watched when I was about 16 years old. Nothing hooked so much as this anime until now.

I love to watch movies. Hard to decide what I like most. Some of my favorites are: Forrest Gump, Patch Adams, Contact (1997), The Motorcycle Diaries, Batman: the Dark Knight, Eurotrip, Tropa de Elite 2, Inglourious Basterds, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Toy Story 3, About Time, It's a Wonderful Life.

Music: I usually listen to rock songs. But I also listen to pop, classic music, MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), and sometimes I try new music styles.

Books: Reality is Broken, Price and Prejudice, Animal Farm, To Kill a Mockingbird.

Animes: Gundam Wing, Death Note, Yu Yu Hakusho, Dragon Ball, Full Metal Alchemist, Avatar: The Legend of Aang.

Games: Final Fantasy series, The Legend of Zelda, Street Fighter, Super Smash Bros, Donkey Kong series for SNES (I used to play a lot video games when I was younger. But nowadays, I hardly ever play. But I accept challenges. ).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Now, I am doing a trip to visit all countries in South America.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My knowledge in portuguese, my primary language;
My knowledge in programming, game development, and other related areas to Computer Science;
I practice kung-fu for more than 5 years. Thanks to that, I learned a lot of physical exercises that can be done at home. I can teach some self-defense skills, or be like a personal trainer;
I can teach you swin, if you don't;
And I can share my life experience so far. Perhaps, I can give you some good advices. =)

Unfortunately, I am not a good cook. So, I can't cook some Brazilian food for you.
