About Me

I'm an easy going guy. I like to talk about all the kind of subject, such as: culture, politics, sports, science, travels, but religion because this is very personal subject. However, I respect everyone regardless their beliefs. It's tough to describe ourselves, but I consider myself a friendly and respectful person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just has discovered couchsurfing as a way to meet new people and share experiences, culture and friendship. I used to view couchsurfing as a place to get cheap acommodation around the world, but friends of mine gave me a new perspective about it.

Interests

I'd like to share experiences, culture and friendship. Besides, it would be great to practice languages with native speakers. I consider myself someone who fits everywhere, so, I will be glad in practicing a different kind of sports, going to a museum, drinking some beers in a pub, riding a bike, walking in the streets, sightseeing, eating a typical food, doing short trips, whatever, all the kinds of thing I can do with my guest or host it will be a pleasure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A three month trip around Canada (Montréal, Toronto, Vancouver) and feeling the environment of the World Cup in my home country.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching depends on my guest or host. I don't know a lot of things, but I think I can teach some portuguese, football, how to move in my city, etc.

It would be amazing to learn different words in your mother language (can be bad words as well), places I must see in your town, etc

Unfortunately in the weekdays I don't have much time to share with my guests because of my job and other personal tasks. I prefer to receive people in the weekends.

As I told above, my guests' experience will depends on their preferences because I am an eclectic person.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendship, good times, laughs, experiences.
