Please, don't make requests for a period that is more than a week away. I can't plan my life based on CS, so more likely I'll only answer requests for the same/next week.

I'm getting a really intense and lovely experience in Couch surfing, I've been hosting a LOT of people for the last months and everything has been really lovely.

IMPORTANT: I would like to state clearly that this is a platform for SHARING, i.e., TAKING and GIVING. Doesn't matter what, stories, small gifts, meals, beers, ideas, anything. But be warned that I expect you to be concerned with my experience as I am concerned with yours.

Another important thing to state is that the electricity bill of the house is shared and it's getting hard for me to pay for my guests, since paying only for me wouldn't be fair with the rest of the people who live here. So if you can contribute with a couple of coins, I would appreciate that, otherwise, it's not a problem. This is NOT mandatory, it's just a way to allow me keeping hosting people. (:

I would give preference for requests of more than one night. I often spend the whole day in the uni, so if you are going to stay just one night we won't be able to spend time together. ):

I am a Computer Sciences student from Brazil, actually doing my doctors and researching natural language processing at Galway, Ireland.

I was born in São Paulo, the biggest city in Brazil and when I reached 8, moved to Buenos Aires, capitol of Argentina, where I learned spanish and my worldview started to expand. After coming back to Brazil, I've moved to Fortaleza, a beach city on the warmest region of Brazil, where I've lived until I moved to Galway, with the exception of a year I've spent in Lawrence, KS, - U.S.A. where I did the last year of my undergrad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To discover more about the world via places and people.
Experience new things and learn with them, which is the main point of life for me.
Feel genuine happiness by contributing for other's enjoyment of moments in the most various ways.

"Love is wise, hatred is foolish"

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help people with math and basic physics...

I know how to cook well with small amount of resources, I know a couple of easy and tasty vegetarian recipes. I know how to play guitar, and some good Brazilian songs.

I can share a good and respectable chat about almost anything. And I love it.

When it comes to food and drinks, I can share as much as my budget allows me, which is not much, unfortunately.
