About Me

ABOUT ME

Hi! I love sports and I practice capoeira, surf and longboarding. I do rock climbing now and then among other sports such as volleyball and soccer. I play the guitar and the drums. I like travelling because I enjoy learning new stuff every day and meeting interesting people from around the world with different points of view.
I do research about the side-effects of Virtual Reality at University.

PHILOSOPHY

Like any other person, I try to keep my philosophy very simple:
Know myself, distinguish between what makes me happy or sad and pursuit happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started hosting people that wanted to visit Barcelona. It has been a very good experience, all of them where very different and I learned a lot of stuff. When I was travelling in Australia I met a lot of people to travel together. It was very interesting and fun!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted couchsurfers in Barcelona and I travelled and I've been hosted in Australia with other couchsurfers. A friend of mine introduced me to CS and I really appreciated it.

Interests

I could say my hobbies are sports, music, arts and travelling. I love learning new stuff and maybe that's why I practice different sports and not focus in just one.
I'm really interested in meeting new people, learning their culture and opinions.
Lately I've been interested in sustainability systems and the environment, such as permaculture and acuaponics. I started an aquaponics system at my parent's.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've been playing music for a long time and I try to listen to a lot of different music styles. It is allways nice to be introduced into new music!
I also watch a lot of movies and series (I love The Wire, I've seen it 3 times!). About books, I've been reading bestsellers lately or books in foreign languages.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm I was with a kayak in Mallorca and I saw a really beautyiful scene. There was a motorboat that was pulling a SUP (a big surfboard) with 4 kids. There was the sunset at the back. It may not seem too pretty with words. It was awesome though.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm interested in learning different points of view and cultures. I also like sharing my opinions, teaching and sharing stuff.
