Born in Salvador and living in Sao Paulo since 2009. I work as a reporter for ESPN in Brazil and correspondent for foreign sports magazines. I´m really passionate about traveling – I spend at least two/three months every year around the world!

I appreciate little things in life and I believe a smile and a laugh are the best accessories anyone can carry

I love partying and having a beer, but I also enjoy the nature. That's the perfect combination I'm always seeking in my trips! I've never done couchsurfing, but after friends' recomendation I thought about giving it a try in Hawaii - I'm sure I won't be disappointed! Basically I've been between hostels and Airbnb so far
