UPDATE: I'M NOT RECIEVING ANY GUESTS FOR A WHILE. I HAVE MOVED TO PORTUGAL NOW. CHECK BACK SOON.

As we say in italian - chi trova un amico, trova un tesoro (whoever finds a friend, finds a treasure).

When we travel around and discover about new places and people, we get in touch and discover more and more about ourselves.

Cool and easygoing guy interested on travelling journeys of inner knowledge, music research and other activites. And of course, having fun (why not? :) ). A musician/busker with a passion for languages, martial arts and other points of view.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to get in touch to, learn with other people who are wanderlusters like me. Specially if they have got a taste on music, literature, martial arts or other forms of artistic stuff. Of course, I have a great interest in learning a local language and culture wherever I travel to. Teaching my native Portuguese is a pleasure and leisure to me. It doesn't matter if I host them or stay as a guest at theirs', not mentioning I want to wander and wander in this little world.

As a musician, I sing, play the violin, piano, guitar and harp. Most oriented in string and keyboards. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

All Björk stuff, of course. Mediterranean, Levantine, Afro-brazilian, Far-east Asian music, specially Japanese.

Actually haven't got any preference to a special kind of music, although I'm so picky when it comes to who does the stuff.

Poetry junkie here!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To work once as a staff/crew member (stage tecnician/producer) in a cruise ship.

Teach, Learn, Share

No matter what, I am a music teacher and tutor. I can teach Portuguese to foreigners. Inglês para os brasileiros. :) Anche dimmi qualcosa in italiano!

Some of my interests and leisures are astrology and tarot and I worked with these oracles as a professional. So if you need to take a look on them... :)

I've practiced martial arts during my entire life and I really love them. I am a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, one of my biggest passions. If you're into, please bring your gi and let's train hard together! I would be honored. :)
