I was a bit busy with my English classes after creating my Couchsurfing, and unfortunately so I couldn't host noone - yet! I think after this trip things will change and so I can contribute with travelers in Brazil :)
Dare to dream. I am a NYC lover, since USA is the country of my dreams. I've gone there some times already and I never get tired of it.
I am a tolerable teacher, who loves teaching and my students. I teach to people of very different ages, from 6-7 until 40 years old more or less. I like that, once that allows me to know a plety of students' points of views. Each student has something to share and no matter how young, (s)he can give you a peculiar lesson of life. Based on that, I believe that every single human being is unique and should be respected. No prejudices.
I love to take photos. That's a big hobby of mine, specially when I'm traveling. Afterwards, I gather the best photos in an album.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Simple and complex at the same time. I want to enrich my travel experiences. That sounds simple. But the mean of doing that involves some steps, namely: getting to know new people who kindly host me, talking very much with the people and hanging out with them if possible; bring some lesson from each trip I make, specially if it has to do with the new culture or the new people I've just known; be interested in what people has to talk, that's why we have two ears and one mouth; trying to share something of Brazilian culture for the people I meet; smiling why I'm traveling, since so we can make a world happier. To sum up, I take Couchsurfing seriously, because my objective is people, not the money I'm going to save. After all, what is the world full of? what is more precious in this world?

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all Sophie Kinsella's books.
Concerning series, I enjoy a lot Friends, How I met your Mother, Two and a Half Men, Gossip Girl and others.
I listen to many kinds of musics, most of them international. In Brazil a famous kind of music I like is called "Sertanejo". It was born in the countryside and is a dancing rhythm.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've gone in a very nice trip with an ex student, who is now my friend. We knew so many countries and it was so so exciting. And I couldn't even imagine that when I first met him and taught English to him. Life surprises.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach. I'm a teacher, so please don't hesitate in asking me anything. Just ask and if I know I answer; if not, I try to research :)
I want to know more about culture of other countries.
I love to share experiences of life with friends.

Teaching is something I'm good at, which is why I'm a teacher. I can try to teach you some Portuguese if you want.
I can also cook some traditional dishes, specially the sweet ones.
