About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore and grow with different cultures and experiences!

ABOUT ME

Nice, neat and easygoing brazilian guy living in the big city.
I work with Communication in human rights issues in NGOs and have keen interest in spiritual exploration, specially studying and practicing Buddhist teachings, mindfulness and recently a bit of Tarot and Astrology.

I hope I can find nice people, make friends, exchange culture, learn a lot and have a great time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really think this sharing economy is here to teach us a lot with each other and to help us reach places and experiences we wouldn't otherwise. I love the idea of knowing a place or a culture from within, from its inhabitants. I would love to host more people at home as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ì had two experiences surfing, in Paris and in Oslo, and both were very successful. Back in São Paulo, I've hosted a lot of foreign friends that had projects in Brazil.

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having the opportunity of going on an exchange program in Seville (Spain) and traveling to 9 European countries was definitely extraordinary! Also diving in spiritual studies has changed my life upside down (or, as I say: downside up!).

Teach, Learn, Share

I am training Mindfulness instructor and I love to talk about it and practice together.
Other things I can share are related to my work in the human rights field and in communication projects.
And of course: Brazil! I think I can say a few words about my home country and culture! :-)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook, talk, explore, meditate! I am quite interested in spending some time with my hosts, not only sleep in their houses!

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, United Kingdom
