Easy going brazilian guy living in Europe and trying to cope with the cold weather. Moved from Rio to Kassel/Germany about 1,5year ago to work in Sustainability.

I am more extrovert and really like to talk and make connection with people. From superficial chats to deep conversation about life. That goes even better if we sit down in a local restaurant.

When exploring a city I mostly like to see the main tourist spots, eating traditional and ending the day in a local bar.

Ah, not a big fan of FKK (Freikörperkultur).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love living in Europe but one thing I’m sure about: I’m not living here forever. Traveling around makes me see the purpose of why I moved abroad. Connecting with people makes me feel not alone even being 10.000km away from my family and friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Samba is my passion! I don’t know how to dance but I know how to enjoy it. Been to Carnival “parade” in Rio a few times and it’s definitely my favorite night of the year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went hang gliding in Rio (just like the scene from the cartoon movie Rio) on my 25th birthday.
But I am definitely not into radical sports 😅

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe food is what brings us all together. Living abroad has taught me that food is an important part of who we are. Not a big chef here but no better moment to learn, teach and share than a cooking evening.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you’re learning portuguese or spanish, I can teach you my Portunhol (!). My Spotify is pretty much Samba so there you go if you’re into music.
