I'm a journalist from São Paulo, Brazil, and one of my favourites hobbies is to travel. I grew up in São Paulo, but I've lived some years in Santos, when I was a child, and in Ibiúna, in SP countryside, for a couple of years. I like to have contact with nature whenever I have some time. I love to do exercises and I use bike to go work. I am studying History from the moment in USP.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the most important thing in a trip is knowing other people and different cultures, and it is only possible when you have a close experience with local people. When I found Couchsurfing, I found it very interesting, because it allows you to have this experience, and for free.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love big concerts of great musicians, and one of the most amazing concerts I've been was one of Roger Waters. Actually, I've been in two concerts of him: The Wall's and The Dark Side of the Moon. I loved both, but The Wall's concert was a transcendental experience. And I loved to go to Paul McCartneys' concert too.
