ABOUT ME

I'm a calm guy, from Brazil, 25 years old, Engineering student who like to meet people from different countries with different cultural backgrounds. I like to practice sports and travel around new places..I speak Portuguese (Brasil), Esperanto (since I was 15 years old), English and nowadays I'm learning French.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the life respecting all cultures, learning with people around me, with every opportunity given and believe, I do it every single day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate on CouchSurfing basically by hosting and surfing people with who I always learn and teach something. For me, that's the meaning of sharing experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The idea of CouchSurfing (hosting and surfing) was already used by me since I started to speak Esperanto (2005). Usually we have year catalogs with speaker addresses/email/phone who are spread around the world. Then, we make a contact asking to be hosted, which often are accepted because a great reason: we love exchange cultural knowledge and experiences.

Interests

I like talk to people from different countries, to play acoustic guitar, to play harmonica and read good books and watch movies with friends.
