About Me

Currently travelling on a short trip in Spain with my girlfriend :)
_______

Filmmaker, photographer and camera assistant in Río de Janeiro, Brasil.

I'm Originally from Brasília, lived in São Paulo for 7 years and was an exchange student in France for 6 months and have travelled around a little bit. Really like to share experiences through a nice talk. Add up some beer and food and I'm pretty sure we'll have a good time :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Isn't it wonderful to make the world a little bit less excluding and connecting people? It makes traveling on a low budget possible and getting to know people a lot easier - knowing how locals live is the best way to know a city or region. Also, making/having friends is one of the things I value the most, and it's a great way of making new ones.
On my time in Europe, I got to know a lot of places really well and from new perspectives because of couchsurfing. I'll always be grateful for that. I also used to receive my friends on my university residence, even though I lived in a 9m2 room :')

Music, Movies, and Books

Film, photography, samba, percussion, poetry, art. I'm a cultural person, most importantly.

I'm very fond of cinema and one of the things I have done the most as a humanities student is read so I'm pretty sure I wont be able to choose..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I opened a queer bar in the neighborhood of Santa Teresa in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm graduated in social sciences and currently making my way into film career, so I would say I really love to talk/learn stuff about film and photography too - apart from all the socio-anthropological type of conversation people can usually get me involved with.

I like to know the energy of big cities and also very much to escape to the wild. Count on me ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can return the favor by hosting you in Rio, Brazil :)

I really like to cook - I can cook some good stuff but always learning. Pretty open to exchange knowledge then and - of course - I love eating with good company.

I also play brazilian drums.. I'm only a starter, but anyway I think I could teach a thing or 2 on that :)

My girlfriend has her own brand of clothes, accessories, and we might give you a piece.
