ABOUT ME

That I'm funny in my particular way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I'm a member since 2006, just now I had the time to complete my profile. I still haven't couchsurfed but I'm looking forward to it. It seems to be a great opportunity to know other cultures in a much realer (and cheaper!) way than just reading guide books or going on a guided tour.

And yeah, finally after a 4 years wait since I created my profile here, I'm able to offer a coach to you, travellers. I finally moved from my mom's house (once in Brazil you'll learn that we go live by ourselves quite later than people from other countries) and have now a small apartment just for me!
