About Me

I'm open minded, love making friends and exchanging experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly because I like to be around local people when I am traveling and also to be able to travel on a budget.

Interests

I'm really interested in Arts in general, specially music, literature and photography.
Also interested in politics, different cultures and cooking! Love to discuss ideas and to learn from people with different perspectives than mine.

Music, Movies, and Books

Impossible choosing one. Very eclectic. Guimarães Rosa, Dostoievski, Kafka and Ferrante were very remarkable experiences, though.
Brazilian music, Jazz, Hip Hop... Love samba, salsa, electronic music, classic ("In Bach we trust"), etc etc.
Love cinema. Kubrick, Loach, Haneke, Dardenne, Almodovar, Kieslowski, Bergman... way too many to select.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning to accept people as they are and finding out about the richness of the different.

Teach, Learn, Share

Some piano pieces, from the time of my endless lessons.
Dance (absolutely love dancing, even when I'm home alone).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sharing travel experiences is always great.
I can also share some of the brazilian cuisine and teach you samba ;)
