About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Be kind and live life to its fullest.

ABOUT ME
I like to hear and share, to see and try. Although I like the new, I'm mostly conservative. I like to talk, but I'd rather hear. I might be a bit quiet at first, it takes me some time to speak up, but I'll you'll see!
I like eating new food. I'm vegetarian. Any new veggie combination is a success!
I like music, I play the keyboard and have been learning the guitar on my own. I'd like to sing, although i think others won't like that. I'm more of the folk style I guess. But it goes with the moment.
I like to hear about politics, religions, culture, languages, tech stuff, sports.
I do enjoy the moment!

PHILOSOPHY
Be kind and live in peace.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I guess if you keep doing the same things, you'll be limited.
Nowadays, what surprises you? People do!
I think that sharing on CSurfing, whatever is my couch, my time, experiences, is a good way to surprise life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i'd rather say: An amazing learning:
Traveling has shown me that the best things in life are in the experiences you have. It can be expensive, as to have dinner in a fancy amazing restaurant. Or free, as to meditate.
Try this: Sharing a meal. Listen to the elderly. Explore the Nature. Get to know different religions.

I've also done things where the adrenaline made them unforgetable:
Bunge jumping, skydiving, surfing, motorcycle, snowboarding, kayaking.
I super recommend!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: some veggie dish. How to choose a good eggplant at the store.
To train a dog (basic commands!!!). Caipirinha.
Learn: anything about the nature and history.
Share: travelling experiences. My country's information.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Certainly share my country's info.
Also talk about my travel experiences although I like to hear more.
I'm very organized, quiet. I like to go out, walk and talk.
I guess... There is more... We 'll find out.
