I am a brazilian medicine student, studying anatomy abroad at University of Glasgow for 1 year (2014-2015).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Back in Brazil I used to live with my family in Curitiba, all-comfort, but felt I needed to change something, try something new, at some other place. When the opportunity appeared, it was took. Now I am here, out of my comfort zone, wanting to "live" for real: knowing different places, different cultures, having new experiences and thus expanding my connection with the world.
To find people who want to expand their connections too is my objective.

Interests

MUSIC: house, techno, pop, disco, indie rock, classical, covers...

FOOD: I LOVE TO EAT! Really. Trying food typical from different places

CINEMA: mostly adventure-themed, fiction and the ones that makes me think about life.

SERIES: Sense8, Breaking Bad, Desperate Housewives, Game of Thrones, The New Normal, American Horror Story, some japanese animes.

GOING OUT: pubs, clubs, flatparties... from these I prefer going to clubs.

And talking about life. Religion, love, psychology and those things that have to do with the "heart" and "mind"... I appreciate it a lot, because I think these conversations change/improve our way of viewing the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living abroad =D This is amazing for me!

Teach, Learn, Share

I study medicine in Brazil, and going to specialise probably in surgery/orthopedics. That I dont know exactly, but definitely I am going to be a doctor.
Studied piano (and music) for 11 years, since I was 6 until 17. Stopped because I had to concentrate on my studies to be accepted into the university and too because my likes changed. I didnt want to continue with it, even though I still play it weekly (not here on UK).

What I Can Share with Hosts

A room, showing Glasgow touristic and cool places, speaking about different things and about my mother country (Brazil). Next year I will be able to host on Brazil too. Ah, and one important thing: A FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE!! My mom says I am a nice guy xD
