About Me

I'am a Brazilian born in Belo Horizonte-MG. I've been living in Vila Velha for the past few years but this year I quited my job and left my apartment to start what should be a sabbatical semester for the first half of 2017 around southern Asia.
I've been through so much, and its been so rewarding that I extended this trip. So far I've done US and Europe for other year months, Asia again for about 6 more months and went back to Brazil march 2019. By September 2019 I've started through Bolivia, passed through Peru and now I'm in Ecuador... I'm thinking about Colombia and next I'm not sure about my destinations, I'll give destiny the odds of planing my journey. I kinda have a feeling for Christmas back home with my family.

I mostly read about economics, politics and history, and I am a big fan of mass entertainment franchises like back to the future, star wars, marvel heroes and spent way too much time watching animes, friends, house of cards and Got.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've meet some fellow CSers around at hostels, and their experiences and histories really set me to know other people in this mindset.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm preety much at anything that bumps from the speakers, as I see music as a source for putting people together and I care more about having people around than the music styles at all.
But when it comes to what I carry on my playlist you'll find good and old rock&roll (AC/DC, Stones, Led, Beatles...), loads of brazilian rock and poprock from 80's to 2000, controversially to many people I'll be using a rock shirt but also listening to Sertanejo (wich is uor country music, very danceable by 2, and I just have the countryside in my veins as I'm from Minas Gerais).
You may realize I'm not good with lyrics but that certainly don't stop me from singing and shaking my bones around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Leaving a solid carrer to start this incredible journey that has proved much bigger opportunity to learn all kinds of things, even buying and learning to drive a motorbike in Vietnam and cruise all the country south to north. I hiked the Kawah Ijen volcano at night to see it's blue fire. And I met Sponge Bob and Homer Simpson personally (yes, I have pictures).

Teach, Learn, Share

We're always learning something from everyone that crosses our lifes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Happiness and silly smiles are my most common mood, easygoing person with some histories and a lot of movies and geek background😅
