ABOUT ME

I belive that everyday we can learn a little bit more about us and about the world around and daily experiences can change us so, whatever I can write today can be wrong tomorrow.
There are only some few things that haven't been changing during the last 26 years:
- I'm shy but when I feel comfortable I can speak and write a lot ;)
- I'm a curious.
- When I work I can be the most focus person but when I relax I'm very distracted.

PHILOSOPHY

"(...)E na diversidade vamos convergindo/Quem vem em paz é sempre bem-vindo./Há sempre espaço para mais um
E só vendo as diferenças percebemos o comum./(...)E conhecendo um estranho, eu também me conheço." Boss A.C. & Gabriel o Pensador

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
