ABOUT ME
Hi everyone! I'm Fernando, and lately with a hard time defining who I am, so I will be defining myself with some facts. I live with my wife/GF/SO Catarina in Curitiba - a city whose we've chosen to live because of the green outdoor areas around, good weather, and fresh air. If we have free time, we would love to take you to explore the outdoor areas. Also, I have a remote job in the AI field for a US-based company. More specifically my field is called machine learning and I get a bit work alcoholic when I'm really excited about a project. And too lazy when I have a boring project. Overall you will see that I'm an introverted person, but Catarina will easily break the ice for us all (she's way more talkative than me). We are not into parties or going out at night to bars (even though we like a few drinks sometimes). We do love our coffee and tea rituals. Also, Cat is a pastry chef, so sometimes there will be some deserts around :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
