Hello everyone.
I am a teacher, writer, father of Clarice, and a doctoral student in Comparative Literature and Philosophy. I also know how to make various types of coffee.
I want to use Couchsurfing to talk with cool people, drink beer, introduce others to Brazilian poetry, practice languages, and play chess.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm figuring it out.

Interests

I teach chess and writing.
I love jazz, The Doors, Caetano Veloso, and Arvo Pärt.
Stalker is probably my favorite movie. Or maybe it's Interstellar, if you ignore the ending. Or perhaps it's Totoro.
Ours Gregório de Mattos has written some of the most beautiful sonnets ever, I would love to introduce some to you.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can even guide you in cooking some delicious Brazilian dishes and introduce you to the vibrant world of MPB (Música Popular Brasileira). Hey, I'm also really keen on learning more about you, your language, and your culture!
