About Me

I am a Brazilian from Sao Paulo countryside, living somewhere else. I always liked travelling, and during the last ~5 years I lived in three countries as part of my master degree.

As a former business consultant, I have decided to change career. Reason why I have just finished my studies in Organic Agriculture in Stuttgart, Germany. I am not in any big trip at the moment, but doing some vacation before settling down somewhere else again or, maybe, just doing even longer vacation!

My wish is to leave all behind and travel the world, but haven't been courageous enough for this yet.

I'm interested in sustainability, food, nature and people. I love a good walk, a nice talk and a loud laugh. I believe everything happens for a reason, that it is never too late to make a change and that life is way funnier with family and friends.

"As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him" - Mahatma Gandhi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a nice way to travel and share spaces, experiences, knowledge and make good friends around the world.
