CURRENT MISSION

The great journey

ABOUT ME

There you go, you got me, once you traveled you need to travel more and more. :)

I started my traveling career ( if you can call it like that ) in Asia in 2006 with Japan and Thailand. What happened is my brother asked me if I wanted to go to Thailand with him, I was saving money to buy a plasma TV, so I took this money instead to travel, best decision of my life, when I came back I said.... "I want to go back there again", so I planned another trip but for 6 months, just came back and I want to go again... :)

PHILOSOPHY

As long as there will be ice, there will be hockey.

You can't score if you don't shoot !

If you want something in life, reach out and grab it !

Don't ask yourself if your dream will come true
Ask yourself what can I do to make it true

Worries can make your life difficult
But not to worry is not that difficult

You got to live your life the way you feel it

Why not ?

Trying new things let you experience new things

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I plan to promote couchsurfing on my future videoblog. But so far it's just a plan. but hey... it will work :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My trip to Quebec city was the one i enjoyed the most because it was unplanned. I was 16 years old, me and a friend decided one day that we should go there and I said "why not today ?" and boom we were gone. We used a carpool service. We knew two person from internet in which they invited us at there place. It's not a direct couchsurfing experience but it's pretty close.

I had a problem in Japan by booking a trip with Darryl that would have been incredible but with different bad things happening we had no choice but to cancel this trip... I tried to reach Darryl on the cellphone but it didn't work and we could not find any way to contact him. We didn't know what to do... I'm sorry again, my brother then sent him an apology when we got an internet shop :(. I almost never show up late and never let somebody down, I'm really ashamed of what happened.
