I'm Brazilian and I'm studying food engeneering in Dijon, France. I'm very passionate for everything that concerns food (yeah, wines, cheese and all that), and people (yeah, we can drink some wines and eat some cheese together and all that hahaha). I tried to travel as much as I could in Brazil, and now I'm on the same path in Europe, and I truly believe that a real trip is not the one where you go to fancy hotels and do everything turistical that there is. I believe that a real trip is when you get to know the culture of the place, the local cuisine and the way people think and see the world. I think that the world needs less stereotypes and more real people (like yes, there's a lot of really beatiful girls in Brazil :) but they're not dancing in bikinis all the time, man). I'm a beginner in Couchsurfing but not in travelling, and am always ready to show people a little of my country. Can't host anyone right now because my room is not really something big, but I'm always up for planning trips together. PS: I can cook for you hahahaha

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why not? I mean, is there anything nicer than meeting people with totally different points of view of the world? But really, I'm quite curious by nature and it's always better to have lunch with friends than alone. Also, the more you travel, the more you want to, so I think it's too late for me I'm already addicted.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Salkantay Trek (4 nights 5 days) to Machu Picchu. Hiking over the ice mountains, discovering deep blue lakes, walking through the Amazon, all that with incredibly good and cheap Peruvian food, just to end right in Machu Picchu. What else could we ask for?

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm actually looking for learning more about buddhism, but having a hard time finding solid information about it, so if you know anyone call me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Knowledge in different languages, Brazilian culture, French culture to some point. FOOD: I can teach you something about wines, cheeses, assemblage, packaging, health and nutrition, and I can cook for you, brazilian food if you will but also I'm always up to trying new stuff in the kitchen.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, France, Germany, Paraguay, Peru, Spain, Uruguay
