About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Brew the perfect beer

ABOUT ME

I am an outgoing person, and easily adapt myself to the environment where I am.

I'd rather be in a busy city, but I feel good spending a weekend in the countryside or at the beach.

I love to drink, eat and talk about anything. Speacially beers, music and movies!

I am a beer enthusiast. I make my own beer and love to drink all kinds of beer!

If you read my profile write FUXICA in your Couch Request.

PHILOSOPHY

Usually people make plans for a whole life without knowing where they want to get. I think it's a lot smarter to try different possibilities and decide, day by day, which way to go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I first heard about CS, I thought it was only a great way to travel and spend less money.

Now I can see that it's all about meeting new people and learning a lot.

My first participation in this project has been hosting people in my place, which was able to do until december 2010.

Now I'm in the beginning of a gap year so I hope to surf a lot!

When I come back to Brazil I'll host again.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

People I hosted and that hosted me were great and I could learn a lot with them.

I've been attending to CS meetings in the cities I'm visiting and it turned out to be a great way to know interesting people.

Interests

I love to try new things.

For me, getting to know a new city or country is not about visiting the touristic places.

It's about knowing people, learning how they live, how they eat, how they have fun and mostly going out for drinks with them (no one can make real friends in a bakery!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach something about beers (drinking and brewing).

I can show people brazilian music, one of the bests in the world in my opinion...
