CURRENT MISSION

Travelling around the Europe, to know other cultures and different ways of life. Sharing informations and experiences to learn more about life. If possible, discovering more music.

ABOUT ME

I came to Europe last year, to do Erasmus program, in Lisbon, where I stayed for seven months. After that I've been in London learning English. I'm very interested to meet new people and mostly about new culture and different way of life. I like to talk to people and make friends. I'm friendly, open minded, easy going and considerate. I always try to be happy and to pass good vibration for everybody. I like to cook, usually I cook simple meals but using creative for do it, to cook is like to be an alchemist :)

I like arts. I play drums since I was ten years old, and I love to play. I've had punk/HC and rock bands, and right now I'm more interested in jazz and instrumental music (around the World). Here is the link of the actual band that I have with my friends in Rio: http://www.thesixtyone.com/casaverde
I really like music a lot!!!
Trying, sometimes, discover the silence.

I study cinema in Niterói - RJ, Brasil. My area is sound, recording and edition. Here is a teaser of a short movie I've realized with my friends: http://vimeo.com/10197244
I believe that World is changing, it is necessary to be linked to be able to change for a better World.

PHILOSOPHY

“Arte revolucionária deve ser uma mágica capaz de enfeitiçar o homem a tal ponto que ele não mais suporte viver nesta realidade.”
Glauber Rocha

"Revolutionary Art must be a magic capable of enchanting the man until he can't support living this reality."
Glauber Rocha.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm begginer. I've tryed couchsurfing in Liverpool, but it was just in time. I surfed in Courgis, a small village in the France countryside, where I had good time with a French happy family :D I surfed in Amsterdam per two nights, where ride a bike is magic!
