ABOUT ME

I am an epidemiologist. When some people ask me what that is, I normally answer: have you seen films like Contagion or Outbreak? I work a lot internationally on projects mainly related to vaccination in low and middle income countries.

PHILOSOPHY

Every day makes a difference

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travel a lot for work. When I am inbetween missions I live in London. When I am here couchsurfing looks like the perfect way to fulfill my addiction to travelling and meeting interesting friends from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have registered some years ago, but then I moved to London in a shared flat and did not have the possibility to host until recently when I moved on my own.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Working in the Sahel to follow a vaccination campaign against meningitis will remain with me forever, every day. Also a similar experience in Bolivia changed my life.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Some friends say that i am too "professoral" so i am trying to refrain from teaching :-) But I am keen to learn. And also to share any experience that i have, from cooking pasta al pesto to photography or statistical analysis.
