About Me

ABOUT ME

I like to meet new people and get to know different cultures which includes different music (specially any kind of live music), art, new flavours and tastes (specially natural and fresh fruits), new languages, new sports, anything that is different to me.

I like to talk and laugh with my friends and why not with new friends of different parts of the world?

Respect the others, including the environment is essential.

PHILOSOPHY

Good energy attract good energy.
Carpe diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I first joined couch surfing, I was still living in Brazil and I didn't speak any other language at the time, so I thought it was a fascinating possibility to get to know people who live another language, who dreams in another language, who live their lives in another language.

I then got to meet these people and they helped me a lot when I was doing my first steps in a foreigner language.

I am still thinking that is a fantastic community where people can get to know other people with some common interests living in different parts of the world, the only difference is that now the language doesn't seems to be barrier as I first though. People can communicate in any language if they want to.

Interests

I am into music
Even though I don't like to sing, I was into electric guitar for many years. I like to hear live music or to learn things related to music. Music tells so much about the history of a country and the people, I like to get to know the country through the music.

I am into walking
I love to walk, I can walk a lot... hiking a mountain, walk along the beach, see sight in the city, wherever I go, I like to walk and I can walk all day if I am up to it.

I love cycling
Even though I like to walk, I love cycling!!! I think it is handy, it is easy, it is so enjoyable, it is much more respectful for everybody in crowd environments. I like to commute, I like to cycle small, medium and long distances and the past few years, I have got used even to the though Irish weather.
