About Me

I'm Brazilian Japanese, digital nomad and dharma practitioner. I was born and raised in Curitiba (Pine Nut Land), Brazil and have been living with one foot in Japan and another in Brazil for more than 8 years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For culture exchange, nice people who are willing to host me and share their history and culture. Unfortunately I'm not able to host anyone at moment, because I live in a small apartment, but I hope someday I can have a nice house to host people from all over the world.

Interests

Ukulele, nature, hiking, aikido, meditation, yoga, art and philosophy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently listening a lot of folk/reggae music such as Xavier Rudd, Mike Love, Paula Fuga, Bob Dylan. Some jazz hip hop like Nujabes.

I like thoughtful movies, Into the Wild is my favourite one and I watched a plenty of times wondering when I will step out of my comfort zone and become a real nomad.

I'm not reading a lot of books, but currently reading "Autobiography of a Yogi" and the only book that I read twice is "The Alchemist" so I guess that's my favourite book ^^
