Overview
About Me
I am not very big on small talk, I want to talk about atoms, about the meaning of life, about your fears and mine. Looking for people to share amazing experiences and conversations about life.
I usually host with my girlfriend, she lives part-time in Mallorca and most often with me, so we try to host when she is around too. Her profile here https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/alina-iurina
if you are more then one person, then please send a link to the Couchsurfing profile of who you are traveling with. If they don't have a profile then Instagram account.
Back to my profile: Wow, what a year. Last year was my first real experiences with Couchsurfing and what a ride. Met amazing people, some are still friends and people I visited while passing by their countries.
If you are new to couch surfing you might be asking yourself, why would people host other people for free? it's hard to explain it, but for me is about meeting people, sharing amazing experiences, enjoying things that I´ve done before but suddenly can become "new" again thru the experience of someone doing it for the first time.
Jesus said. "To enter the kingdom of heave you must be like children". And so, thru your eyes, I want to see everything around me as if it was new. That is what couch surfers bring to me.
My schedule varies. My girlfriend lives with me most of the time, when she is not in Mallorca where she lived before we met. I have a business so sometimes I am busier than others, so I can´t guarantee I will have a lot of time to spend with you. From 10 to 19 each day I work from the leaving room, and I have someone that works with me doing packaging for my company, so the leaving room is a little "busy" during the day.
I like partying sometimes, but not during the week because of work. Barcelona has a lot to offer, for day and night activities, sometimes I feel like chilling, others partying, others exploring nature. Your mood will influence my mood too, and then we will see what happens, but if you want to party during the week please don´t choose me, because its near to impossible for you to go out and not wake me up when leaving and arriving.
ABOUT ME
I am a talkative guy, Brazilian/Italian. I love to talk about life, culture, travels and most of all about people and why we are as we are, and how we can become the best version of ourselves. I´m always interested in learning new things.
I have a big passion for Business, Nature, Sports, the Sea, and the mountains. I love beauty and I think everything is cooler when you share with like-minded people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Recently I am reading a book called "Conversations with God" which is impacting me very profoundly. I am not religious (Yes, I do have a Jesus quote at the start of my profile), but I do believe there are people that have an important message for us. So in this book I read this phrase
"Make sure you never walk through any human beings life, but that is made better because you did". When I read that, I was already doing couchsurfing, and I was kind of doing it, but this phrase inspired me to go deeper, and practice it with everyone that I meet. I´m not always able, but I am doing my best, which is all I can ever do.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So, time for an update. Having received about 14 times, from 1 to 3 people. I guess I now have some experience. Because of couch surfing, I had the best summer, and now I have friends to visit in many cities. I am very thankful for it.
Note to those I decline. I don't mean to be rude by declining without commenting, but Barcelona is a popular destination so I receive a lot of requests, I try to answer quickly so that you can have time to contact other hosts for a couch.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love music, especially while I go out. Love House, Deep house, or something more chilled like Bossa Nova
I LOVE reading, all kinds of books but lots about self-development and business. The 4 hour workweek and The Power of now are two of the books with the biggest impact in my life.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
quitting my job and deciding to make my own path. it was 8 years ago, what a journey. Made an online business that allows me to travel while I work, loving every minute of it.
Teach, Learn, Share
