Overview
About Me
HEY PEOPLE FROM THE WORLD
I've been working A LOT recently so i am really having a hard time to respond couchrequests. Thats really sad to me because i wanted to receive more (and living with my family is noy helping on it). So... i used to have a "100% of response" that i sadly dont have anymore. Dont hesitate to send me a message to do something, maybe i can find some time. Good luck!
(And dont forget that couchsurfing doesnt mean free place.)
CURRENT MISSION
Complete this field with something funny.
ABOUT ME
Usually i would try to think in an elaborate essay to write in here, but i just realized that nothing i write will really tell who i am. So i prefere to do an invitation:
Visit my home, meet me at a coffee shop, club with me, take me to a pub, a library, the movies, host me! Just meet me. Then you can create your own image of who i am.
Normalmente eu pensaria em algo realmente elaborado para escrever aqui, contudo eu acabei de me dar conta que nada que eu escrever vai realmente me definir. Prefiro, então fazer um convite:
Venha me visitar, me encontre numa cafeteria, saia para dançar comigo, me leve para um bar, uma livraria, o cinema, me hospede! Apenas me conheça. Aí você poderá criar a sua imagem de quem sou eu.
PHILOSOPHY
I'm trying to keep my inner child alive, my mom used to say to me that i was and i am the happiest person she knows. I really want that to be a reality till the very end.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Its funny to realize that us, humans, treat ourselves and the other ones around us so badly. To travel teached me that our species is not as bad as we think, there are still a lot of place to kindness, share, friendship and good will. Couchsurfing is an big example of all of that. It's a social network that allow us to be good to other ones, to open our private life and spaces to the unknown just because you can still trust in people. I'm in couchsurfing because it screams against this closed idea of a society that only thinks about money, that shows us that our biggest accomplishment in life is just to exist and share.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went to Atacama's desert. I took a bath at the most salty lake in the world. And i've screamed a lot at the top of Purmamarca's mountain (4000 meters of hight).
I've travelled along Europe for 2 months without a fix destiny. I have visited 16 different cities and met a lot of people that i consider now good friends. Its hard to put in words how does it feel to travel in a free way. Only doing it you can really experience the pleasure. Its really amazing. I know for sure that i cant come back to my "normal" life now. My values, and my perception of the world completely changed. There's no more materialism, only my memories (and that is enough).
Teach, Learn, Share
Well, i live in the coldest state of Brasil. It's called Rio Grande do Sul. Most people think Brasil is only beaches and samba. Here everything is different (not better, just different). At winter, our temperature can reach - 5ºC . If one day you visit south, you can drink an special Tea that EVERYONE is addicted. It's called "chimarrão" and it has 10 times the cafeine of the coffee.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A beer, or wine, or vodka, or cachaça. It depends of the host haha.
I can also show a lot of my country' movies and music.
Countries I’ve Visited
Argentina, Brazil, Chile, England, France, Italy, Netherlands, Paraguay, Portugal, Spain
