About Me

I'm a 25 years old Brazilian who loves to take photographs and ride bikes in my free time. Currently, I live in Dundee, Scotland. Living here is being a great experience and I hope to make it even better by travelling around as much as I can in my free time. Spending time outdoors make me feel more alive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to share places and experiences with like minded people around the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a rock fan, but my music taste does not stop there. I really appreciate to listen to blues, folk and other genres of music as well.

My favourite movies are: Into The Wild, Los Miserables, The Shawshank Redemption, Across The Universe, among others.

My favorite books are: The NeverEnding Story, Harry Potter, The Lord Of The Rings, The Hobbit, The Northern Lights Trilogy, Born to Run, Linha D'Água (Amyr Klink), 100 Dias Entre Céu e Mar, among many others. I really enjoy reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling the whole Carretera Austral in Chilean Patagonia was the most amazing thing I've ever done in my whole life. The one month I spent bike touring there changed me as person and I hope to have many other experiences like that one.

I've also done two other bike trips in Brazil, volunteered in India and lived in a few places for a while.

Right now it's still only a goal, but I'm training to run my first ultramarathon in February. Pretty excited.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning and teaching is a passion to me. Even though my formal education is in medicine, I spend most of my free time reading about non-related stuff. DIY, travelling, bike touring and photography are among the things I enjoy the most. I'd love to share the little knowledge I have about this subjects and to learn about anything others have to teach me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

In addition to sharing stories and company, I like to cook and would love to cook something to my hosts if they'd fancy. Either Brazilian or non-Brazilian food can be in the menu ^^
