Hello, my name is Felipe and I’m a Brazilian from the huge São Paulo. I study theater and I love paintings, drawing, sculpture, and Arts in general. I am crazy for History of Art and discovering it by Architecture and visited places.
Now I'm in an exchange in Paris and living in Saint-Denis as I study Theater at the University Paris 8. Soon I'll come back to São Paulo and until that I'm really into knowing more people from different countries during the trips abroad.

I'm a talkative person but also calm, adapting well to the circumstances. I like cozy places and kind people to chill out and talk or walk by, but also party nights with loud music sometimes too. The mood guides.

Well, one thing I also like is having a great talk about Politics, Culture, Science and Conspiracy Theories (Lol), figuring out what makes me closer and further to the others is always so fulfilling. If it’s possible with a good cold beer or a glass of wine, sharing food and stories with people. I love cooking by the way and I love the way we can unit ourselves over the table 🤤

I'm an open-minded guy and for me, this is a precondition for getting in touch with people, if you have prejudices against any minority please don't send me any request and take me out of your list on this social platform.

If you came until here feel free to have a look on my Instagram account:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first I remembered, the most recent too, is the one I almost got soaked in the Senne river. It’s stream was strong and the level of the water started to increase as we were passing by under a bridge. We could have come back to where we came from but yolo... I was with my friends from de university’s residence and we were having fun of the situation as we were getting isolated by the water that surrounded us. To scape from getting wet we had to cross a whole dock of waves until achieving the stars and get rid of that. We laughed a lot after the few minutes of panic trying to step in the highest stones of the dock's pavement. One funny memory I had with them, for sure.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing food, sharing stories, knowing places and cultures, tastes and habits.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good talk while we eat and drink together or have a walk around the city, all about making friends.
