Overview
About Me
Mixed 50% Japanese, 25% Portuguese, 25% Native = 100% Brazilian.
International experience (studies and professional).
Open minded and talkative. Easy going with others. Always exploring and looking for new experiences. New information about any subject is always welcome. Love to travel, love animals. Always respectful to different religions, sexuality choice and opinions. Not a supporter of radicalism in any kind of idea. Can't stand racism and the lack of respect either.
Ecology is something really important and sustainability comes with it. Sustainable development is essential. Same stands to human rights and gender equality.
I don't smoke, but I don't get bothered with others smoking.
I'm up to music concerts and different kinds of events (sport ones included). Fan of outdoor activities.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've discovered the network by some friends a while ago. Based on their good experiences I've told myself "Why not? I'm actually late to that!!". By now I'm sure it will be even easier and better to share with others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Jumped from a 216m tall bridge in South Africa.
Skydived.
Went on a fisher's boat in Liberia with 3 friends with terrible seawaves (never doing it again)
Teach, Learn, Share
I wanna learn how to surf with a SUP.
I can teach expressions in Portuguese, how to travel in Brazil or the places I've already been or how to cook some Brazilian plates and how to prepare Brazilian cocktails. I'm also good at packing for long time duration trips, if you need help.
