About Me

Yet another Brazilian lost in southern Sweden struggling to be a single-dog-parent.

I used to share a big house with other students in Brazil, but now I live in the suburbs of Lund. Kinda miss all the people and the constant chaos though.

Allergic to cats, but love them so much that I rather not breathe for a few hours just to pet them. I do have a dog that loves with me and, yes, he would love to cuddle with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's probably one of the best ways to truly know a different culture and exchange experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Indie-rock, Pop, whole lot of others that I honestly don't know how to classify (some Brazilian ones that I can't even translate)

Movies: I'll go for anything that is not Fast and Furious to be honest

Books: I used to read a lot more when I was younger, but preparing and getting into college took that away. My favorite book series were Artemis Fowl, A Batalha do Apocalipse (brazilian book), His Dark Materials series (thank you HBO for the proper tv adaptation) and related fantasy-themed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teached one of my pet rats how to fetch, it was pretty cute. Haven't managed to do it with my dog though

Teach, Learn, Share

Regarding languages, I can "safely" share with you some English and Brazilian Portuguese (yes, it's different from the language spoken in Portugal). Also, if you're up for a few drinks, I can prepare a whole lot of Brazilian drinks, perks of being a university student for a while.

My dream is to learn how to use (climb?) the silk (yeap, that one from the circus)

I'm a disaster with instruments, but I still want to learn how to play keyboard/piano/related.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Recomend really good places in Brazil, since I've lived all over this country. Seriosly, I've lived in more than 7 different cities around here, more than 200km away from each other.

Some really good stories about living with 8 more students in a single house. Also I know where to get cachaça around here (:
