I was born and raised Brazil, although US has been home for the past 9 years. I’m currently in New Zealand on a working holiday, exploring every inch of this beautiful country. I love hiking and often times end up in circuits I’m not fit for, but I like to see it through so I guess you can say I have perseverance? I love photography although I’m an amateur. I take pictures of subjects I admire and that inspire me, but I don’t try to make money off of it. If you’re into photography, maybe I can learn from you? We can also exchange ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, meeting people and exchanging life experiences. I believe hotel rooms are isolating, and fun experiences are more likely to happen through new connections, by meeting other people.
