Overview
About Me
I am 22 years old studying Industrial Engineering in the Federal University of Ouro Preto, Brazil. I am currently living in Australia for 1 year for an exchange program. I`ll be traveling through Southeast Asia from February to March. I`m willing to know more about completely different and new cultures and interested in the beautiful landscapes around there. I love nature but also how the big cities work and their history.
I love going to a bar or a house party and have a chat about anything (may I`ll be shy at first, but I do love to talk), but I have fun in all types of parties and listen to all types of music (I have my list of my top preferences, but particularly during couchsurfing I`ll be really interested about knowing typical and popular native songs.)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I lived in a house in Ouro Preto where my housemate hosted many Brazilian and international people. We had a great time there and I felt more confident to couchsurf while traveling overseas. This would be my first time as a guest.
Interests
I love when we got wrapped up in a sincere and joyful conversation for hours. I like coffee and I am starting to like teas (after life in Australia). I love to learn about something new (culture, curiosities, history, skills, anything). I love to have something new to teach. I like soccer (but I don`t know how to play) and my team is Cruzeiro. I love my two nephews and I`m still learning how to be an uncle. I like entrepreneurship, specially the social entrepreneurship. I do not like to talk about me exclusively (like in this profile) and my memory is bad so that`s it for now, we can talk about it later.
