Overview
About Me
As short as possible, an airheaded, silly and funny guy hungry for knowledge, except if such knowledge happens to be formality in general. (Who just happens to study Mechanical Enginnering at UTC). My airheadness and silliness is so visible that people have compared me to a dog. It has gotten to the point that my nickname when I was a freshman was Clown and it stuck with me even here, in another continent. The people that have seen both my curious and silly side end up making a "happy crazy scientist/walking wikipedia" image out of me, and I guess it's not so wrong, as a charicature.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
When travelling, I'm almost completely disconnected to the digital world, wanting to actually live the most of it outside and exploring the cities and meeting new people, hearing their stories, knowing how is daily life for them in place X. In general, immerse myself in a culture and make an adventure out of it. Therefore, I guess by Couchsurfing, I can do this even more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travel wise, I guess the biggest adventure yet, was to travel the last 12Km to Machu Picchu walking and following the train lines by the side of the Urubamba River. That was truly incredible.
Teach, Learn, Share
As said before, I would love to explore the places I visit as much as understand the people that live in such places.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Well, I've got quite the list of countries already visited or lived on, so there's a bunch of stories regarding those journeys. And since I'm always hungry for knowledge, I'm always happy to share what i've got as well.
