About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To get to know the world and have as most cultural exchanges as it is possible!!
ABOUT ME
I'm an open minded and very easy going person. I like to meet new people, to dance, to talk and share experiences. I'm interested in understanding the psychological motivation of others, but I do respect people's privacy. I probably talk too much - specially when I am comfortable (or drunk), but I can also be a bit reserved sometimes. I usually cook and prepare different dishes, even though I'm not great cooker. I am quite organized (some people would say that I'm a bit systematic too) . I used to work as a bartender in Brazil, so I appreciate going out to have a few drinks, or even preparing some by myself at home. I've lived in England as an exchange student and this experience changed me deeply. For me it is very important to get to know different cultures: I am always very excited about it! Travelling is huge passion of mine, even though I don't get to travel a lot anymore!
Now I live in Maceió, one of the most beautiful cities in Brazil - in terms of nature.
Well, I don't know if I managed to be fair while describing myself, but I did my best anyway! Hopefully you can see by yourself :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am always looking for meeting new people and visiting new places! When I'm not travelling I'm really happy to host :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
All the experiences that I've had so far were great! I think that couchsurfing is way better than hostels or hotels! The main point (for me) is to share and exchange! It could be thoughts, stories, knowledge or even some beer!
Interests
I appreciate a good time having a few drinks, chatting and dancing with my friends. I really love to travel when I have time and money to do so! I am interested in learning other languages, dance styles and some music instruments, if my coordination (or it's absence) allows me to.
I usually spend a lot of time watching series and movies. Probably more than I should and I kinda think it is a waste of time, but I can't help it.

Movies: The Lovely Bones, Big Fish, Chicago, Her, Tangled, Mulan, P.S. I Love You, V for Vendetta, Juno, Inception, My Sister's Keeper, Little Miss Sunshine, The Hunger Games, Black Swan, The Notebook, The Picture of Dorian Grey, Vicky Cristina Barcelona etc...

Teach, Learn, Share
I am always ready to share or teach some dancing (Forró and Samba - typical brazilian dances - and bit of Zouk), cooking, bar tendering or anything that you'd like to know about Brazil and our culture. I'd love to learn how to play a musical instrument, to get to know a bit more about esoterism, arts and different cultures.
