I am Brazilian. At the moment I am a PhD candidate at the University of São Paulo at the Anthropology Department.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel frequently for work related trips or mainly just for fun. Usually, I travel alone and I prefer to stay in hostels because they're a good place for meeting new people. Couchsurfing seems a good alternative too.

Interests

Surfing is my favorite sport and I like to surf whenever I can in my hometown, but also in new places. I play the guitar, and I enjoy different styles of music, such as rock'n roll, reggae, hip hop, bossa. I also enjoy hiking and camping. One of my goals in life is to travel around the world as much as I can. I like reading and watching movies. My favorite authors are Carlos Castañeda, George Orwell, Gabriel García Márquez. I also like poetry and my favorite poets are Pablo Neruda, Fernando Pessoa and Carlos Drummond de Andrade

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know if this counts as an amazing thing, but sometimes I surprise myself when I do things that I thought I could not do, like extend my limits on surfing or evolve as a guitar player.
