About Me

PT-BR

Pois bem,

Sou um nordestino com alma de cigano buscando apreciar as coisas simples da vida. Desapegado, mas que curte certos luxos, como uma rede embaixo de uma sombra fresca. Como dizia Belchior ''apenas um rapaz latino americano, sem dinheiro no bolso, sem parentes importantes e vindo do interior''

Sou mochileiro em hiato, tentando descobrir o que fazer da vida.

Gosto de cinema, acampar, trilha, video-game, filosofia, fotografia, kung-fu, piano, café, f1 e bolo de rolo.

Tentando não surtar durante o fim do mundo e voltar para estrada logo que der.

ENG

Okay, let's make it quick..

I come from a very small town in northwest of Brazil, with big dreams and an open mind. Trying to make the best of this life. About ten years ago I found a text, the hostee manifest, that changed me somehow, and describes a lot how i see things now..

“This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don’t like something, change it. If you don’t like your job, quit. If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over analyzing, life is simple. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once; seize them. Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating. Live your dream, and wear your passion. Life is short.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that CS can be an amazing platform to unite different people form different places with different ideas about what life is. I want the opportunity to meet those people and see the world through their eyes

(I already have hosted several people in my house, but not with couchsurfing, now is kind of hard because I'm traveling a lot.. and I have stayed in several houses too haha but with the platform I'm just beginning.. I got verify a couple of months ago, that's why..)

Interests

Explore the world and myself in adventures and experiences with amazing people and by myself.

I really like to do almost anything, I think we can take the best of every little thing that we do in our lives, even though we don't really appreciate that much. I believe that every person, experience, music, movie, book, food etc will become part of who we are.

My favorite thing in life is the unexpected.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Friends all over the world!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you my world, learn anything from you and share my vision.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Experiences, good vibes, funny stories and warm hugs..
Besides that, I can offer everything that I am, that I know and what I think about life.

And if you must, i can make you a good and fresh caipirinha or maybe a nice and warm bowl of brigadeiro (like almost every brazilian).
