About Me

I'm not good at trying to describe myself from scratch. I'm sure you can learn about me by reading the other parts of this profile ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm extremely curious about the world, different people, places and cultures... Traveling around and getting to know it all is one of the most important things in life for me!
I believe Couchsurfing can give me great opportunities in this sense, specially since I'm always on a budget. :)

Interests

Traveling, meeting people, interesting conversations, great tv shows and movies, science magazines and documentaries
Also... Do you know any podcasts? Well, I'm kind of obsessed with this medium.
I love to listen to a variety of podcasts. I have studied a lot about it. I have produced some podcasts. And I would like to make more of them. Specially the kind that involves storytelling. :)
Some of my favorites are Radiolab, Invisibilia, Serial, Imaginary Worlds, Thin Air, StartUp, Reply All, Mistery Show, Millennial, Nerdist, Mamilos, Braincast, SAD, SciCast, Projeto Humanos

Books: American Gods, Neverwhere (Neil Gaiman), Harry Potter (J.K. Rowling), To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee), The End of Eternity (Issac Asimov), Fame and Obscurity (Gay Talese)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversations, I guess :)

And I am available to help with whatever I can, of course!
