ABOUT ME
A briefly history: I was born in a small city in Mato Grosso do Sul (state in the southwest of Brazil) but spend the majority part of my live in Curitiba - Parana (south of Brazil). It's a wonderful city!
I am studying Mechatronics Engineering and I really love it! Then, in 2010, I applied to an Exchange Program and here I am, in Prague - Czech Republic, where I am having a really great time, , meeting lots of people, having fun in all manners I can find and also very excited about traveling around Europe.
Well, I am a very happy person, always smiling and as friendly as I can and try to be always sympathetic and in good mood (I think it's the essence of the life).
I've had great experiences lately. Skydiving was one of the best!! Also driving a Ferrari F430 and being able to go as fast as I wanted was AMAZING!!!
In Czech republic I learnt how to like the nature. Hiking in the forest for hours stopping for a barbecue, climbing, etc: PEACE OF SOUL, I love it now!
I have also been learning how to cook and I am the chief at my apartment now! :D
Among my specialties are pasta with sausage, pasta with tuna.. ok, these are my specialties! LOL. Oh, and there is also strogonoff (I don't know if it's a Brazilian food, but it's very normal there).
The rest.. when we meet you will get it! :)
PHILOSOPHY
To get to know as many people as I can, adding them life experiences to mine and making myself a better person.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hosted some people at my apartment in Prague, neither of them I met through CS, they were usually friends of my friends of my friends of my...
It was a great experience, though we don't have a good structure for that here, so hopefully, as soon as I get back to Curitiba I will be able to be more active in the community as a host.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Just those I said before.
Soon I will fill in it more properly! :)
Interests
I like maths! What? Is it weird? =/ I also like normal things like classical physic, quantum physic, string theory, programming..
Well, I do like to do every kind of sports including of course football (which is compulsory for Brazilian guys!), inline skating, I tried skiing and snowboarding some time ago what is just amazing and I am pretty good at that.. seriously.
I also like hiking, riding a bike (though I haven't done it for a while), going to parks to relax.
I like to go to parties, bars or pubs with friends have some beers, chat.. I like discussions, sometimes even though I agree with someone, I say the opposite, just to see his arguments and theories. It's a good way to learn :P
I love Brazilian culture and I like to share it. I've been learning a lot about Czech culture and I am very excited about learning the others.. CS is perfect to that.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like every kind of movies, from idiot comedies to horror, from the black and white ones to those on 3D.
In special: Star Wars, Pirates of Caribbean, Gifted Hands, Into the Wild ..
I also like a lot series like House, The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men and so on..
Brazilian music is awesome and I really like what we call MPB (Zeca Baleiro is my favorite one).
But also AC/DC, Guns n roses, Metallica.. Or something calmer like Cat Stevens, Brett Dennen, Jack Johnson..
I don't read a lot, and prefer to read technical issues. But also Harry Potters, The Universe in a Nutshell, The Man Who Counted..
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been living in a crazy world, there is nothing more amazing than that!
Teach, Learn, Share
I wanna share the Brazilian culture that is so different from those I know so far. I think it's the best I have to share, because it's something you can't find either on book or websites..
