I'm an exchange student in Prague (Literature and Cultural Studies) and will be living here until February, so I want to make the best of this time! I'm very curious and sociable, which is probably the reason why I'm so in love with having new experiences. I'm almost always in a good mood and I'm easy going, there's no question about that!
I also enjoy reading and learning about history and cultures, thus listening to other people's stories is a pleasure to me. :)

Interests

When in a trip, meeting new people and getting to know their stories are some of the best things. That's actually the reason why I'm on Couchsurfing.

(B note: Local drinks?! Local music?! Local art?!Local parties?! I'm in!)

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, this is an interesting topic for sure. I'd definitely call myself a "bookworm" - reading's probably been my first passion. Actually, I have a tatto with a quote from one of the most important books of my teenagehood, "The Catcher in the Rye": "It's history. It's poetry". (I was about to explain what it means to me, but I guess I'll just leave it as a mystery! :P hahaha) Anyway, "Lavoura Arcaica" (Brazilian), "Cien Años de Soledad" (Colombian), Virginia Woolf in general, "Invisible Cities" (Italian), "Novas Cartas Portuguesas" (Portuguese) are among my favourite ones.
Movies: "The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind","Big Fish", "Paris, Je t'aime", "Medianeras" (the first scene)... I've recently fallen in love with "Her" and "Mommy" .
Music: from Blues and Jazz to Arctic Monkeys and Radiohead.

Teach, Learn, Share

Knowing more about the culture of the countries I visit is certainly a main issue to me, so whatever people may be willing to tell me or show me on this topic I'll be happy to learn. Maybe you could teach me how to cook a traditional dish or take me out to a local bar. :) I'm pretty easy to satisfy!
Unfortunatetly, even though I do like cooking, I'm a disaster at it, so I won't be able to prepare any Brazilian food (except for BRIGADEIRO, which you should try! It's amazing!!!) , BUT I can teach some Portuguese or talk about Brazilian Culture or discuss literature or... I don't know, what would you like to learn?
