I'm a visual artist, I work and research drawing as a contemporany practice in art today. I'm currently doing a master's dregree in ''Poéticas Visuais'' and simultaneously taking an art education graduation, both in Federal University of Rio Grande Sul, in Porto Alegre.

Blues and jazz are my musical passions, I love playing guitar (even though nowadays I don't play as often I used to), and I'm very interested in non-ocidental music genres.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travalling and learning new cultures are becoming a new passion for me, since I had my fist internacional travel in 2013, to Argentina and Uruguaiy.

I believe travaling becomes a much deeper and richier experiencie when you really get to know the real local cultural, try new habits, talk to different people, escape from the turistical trap and obvious landmarks, and be in touch to a whole unespected side of yourself.
