CURRENT MISSION

To make my life meaningful to those I love and others around me and cause good impact in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” Steven Jobs

ABOUT ME

I was born in Brazil, lived in a small-medium city and moved to London this year. Big dreams, small time.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I'm studying in London for the 2015-2016 term. I decided to take that year and use it the best way possible. Since time is limited and I can't travel every weekend, I thought it would be nice for travel to come to me sometimes, like hosting people.

I've hosted and been hosted and had amazing experiences through couchsurfing, intend to keep participating :)

Interesses

I'm an engineering student, my interests include traveling, nature, eating, photography (feel free to follow me on instagram @gabrielbrina), unexpected adventures, volunteering, genuine smiles and seizing the day.
I also do fencing and archery, and I'm new to tennis.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

It might not look that awesome to you, but one of the most amazing things I've done was to pitch a project (that was drafted by ten people in two hours) in front of over 300 people from 60 countries in English, which is not my first language, and get the project to finals. It was a big step in realizing that most personal barriers are self imposed.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

If you're keen to photography or cooking or reading or self improvement or hiking or clubbing I'm pretty open about talking and sharing about various subjects, haha. To teach is also to learn.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I'd be happy to cook some Brazilian food for hosts! I like to talk about almost any subject, to explore cities, country side and going on adventures. :)
