About Me

EN: I always try to improve myself to become a better human being, improving the connection to people and the world leaving aside shames, fears and prides for a better understanding of this crazy trip we call life.

The phrase I used as life phylosophy back when I created this profile was:
"Be a simple kind of man or be something you love and understand."
Simple Man - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Which still has a great meaning to me.

PT: trabalho constantemente no meu crescimento pessoal, para ser uma pessoa melhor, com melhores conexões com pessoas e o mundo, tentando viver sem vergonhas, medos ou orgulhos para melhor entender essa coisa louca chamada vida.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

EN: I use to live with a friend that host people from couch surfing and thats how I discovered this whole new world. One of our surfers became our neighbor and we are good friends nowadays. Also, the surfing experience I had so far was AWESOME!!! Unfortunately the last years I could not participate actively in this community and now I'm back on again.

PT: descobri o couch por intermédio de um colega de quarto nos tempos de faculdade. Comecei a frequentar as meetings em Porto Alegre e achei MUITOOO interessante. Conheci muita gente legal e aprendi bastante, aí comecei a fazer parte do CS.

Interests

EN: Travel, cycling, meeting people, discovering cultures, funny videos, pets, stamps to my backpack, languages, potatoes.

PT: viagem, ciclismo, conhecer pessoas e culturas, videos engraçados, bixos, linguas e batata.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So far, an exchange to Germany with my University was far away the most amazing experience I ever had. It was life changing and I'm glad for having such a great opportunity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I offer courses of mundharmonica, bike fixing/repairing, guitar, walking, breathing, putting the hands up in the air. All for free but in a begginer level. The same subjects I would like to learn deeper to improve this technics!

Courses I like to take are regarding people thoughts, concearns and lessons learned. We can learn a lot with others experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Although its not that much, I can share the life experience I had so far; something about cooking using 2 pans or less, reducing dirty dishes; my room, kitchen and bathroom.

Also a mattress/sleeping bag for the overnight.
