About Me

I was told I am a very easy-going, extrovert and energetic Brazilian. I would say I am all about going to places and meeting new people.

Love to walk all over, marvel at the architecture, the landscape and all the details each city has to offer. I also like talking to people, having the chance to connect, hearing what they have to say about themselves and their surroundings, about anything really. Naturally, nothing beats traveling to a person like me.

Quick curiosity: I don't smoke nor drink, still, I love going to bars and parties. My friends can't ever understand that.

No person is one dimensional though, so I'll have my "me time" every now and then where I am usually listening to music with my headphones or at my laptop researching something related to one of my interests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am hoping to find people that somewhat have the same idea that I have about traveling and making worldwide connections. Have the chance to learn more about the places I am going to, and the ones I'll still try and visit someday.

Interests

I enjoy every activity related to nature: hiking, trekking, camping, rafting...; Music (I play the piano); Sports (basically all of them); Dancing (salsa, zouk, samba de gafieira and forró); Movies; studying languages and learning about different cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

- Music: Not really about the genre, rather if it is an enjoyable song. That said, I do gravitate towards instrumental pieces, specially piano ones, and Epic Music. I don't really like a couple of specific Brazilian genres (Funk & Pagode) and I am also not a fan of anything metal or dark.

- Movies: From thrilling sci-fis to popcorn actions passing through romantic comedies as guilty pleasures. But into dramas more than anything, add the epic or historical element in it and you'd have the perfect formula to grab me. If it is signed by Christopher Nolan, Dennis Villeneuve, David Fincher, Guy Ritchie or Zhang Yimou just count me in.

- Books: Love me some investigative romance as a relaxing reading. My favorite author though is Bernard Cornwell, whose romances are usually placed in a historical Britain moment or are based of legends from that region. On the professional side of things, I like reading about psychology, marketing and business

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A 3-day, 32-kilometer crossing through the mountains, hiking, climbing and camping with only water from streams and springs, no food whatsoever. Not sure if it counts, but I felt quite amazed. Made me realize we should definitely rethink if our eating patterns are really necessary.
