Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
Never stop learning. Listen to anything that anyone has to say, from that guy who sings in the corner to the scientists trying to cure cancer. Everyone can teach you something -- even if it's the things you should not do.
ABOUT ME
Hello! Hola! Bonjour! Oi!
I'm a retired Brazilian journalist from Minas Gerais, who lived in Sao Paulo for 5 years, but since 2013 I'm living in the amazing colorful Colorado, in USA. Now I'm studying biochemical engineering and hoping to be a good food scientist someday in the near future!
I love traveling, meeting new friends from everywhere and learning about new cultures (cheesy, I know, but hey cheesy is true sometime!). I like languages a lot! Always up to learn new words. I'm also crazy for science, movies and food, love the outdoors, and I just try to keep myself learning more about anything and everything, all day and everyday.
PHILOSOPHY
Don't do to others what you don't want to be done to yourself. You will harvest whatever you have seeded!
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have had only two experiences surfing someone's "couch", and it was truly amazing. I loved to see the places I've visited through "local eyes" and being away from crowds if possible. I'm really looking forward to expand my experiences in the CS community. Always great to meet people with warm hearts, open minds and interesting lives. I've so far being positively surprised over and over.

Música, películas y libros
Would watch pretty much anything from Netflix (House of Cards, Orange...). Really like Woody Allen, Tim Burton, Lynch, Hitchcock, Scorcese, Fincher, Andersen and Del Toro, and the big Oscar circuit in general. Always keep my eyes open for independent movies with odd stories (talking about stuff like Mr. Nobody, Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil and God Bless America here -- LOVED them all). Young adult literature gets my heart (mainly Harry Potter and Hunger Games -- always rereading them), Brazilian literature, mainly these awesome guys called Drummond de Andrade and Machado de Assis, biographies in general... will listen mainly to classic stuff like Elvis and Queen, but ocasionally some pop junk like Bruno Marz and Britney Spears (yep, that's right).
Algo increíble que he hecho
Diving with great sharks in South Africa, jumping in the highest bungee jump in the world, hiking non-stop around Colorado, swimming with sea turtles in Mexico, playing with dolphins in Belize, riding a scooter in the bottom of the sea in Hawaii... This list is constantly being improved.
Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
Many stories... I'm a talker! But I love to listen to, so I think that's well-balanced. Oh, and I'm a great cook (you MUST let me prove it!)... I love to share my Brazilian food! :)
