Hello! I am Eduardo, 20 years old, from south of Brazil. Now I'm studying at University of Illinois, on a student exchange program. I'm in the 2nd year of Engineering; also I've worked part-time with IT and comercial things. I'm more like intellectual and imaginative; but I also enjoy hanging out with my friends. I love the human potential to have new ideias and improve life; and everything makes me believe there are a lot of good people in the world, we just need to find them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Trying to find good people and make some friends :)
