Music, Movies, and Books
My heart is of rock n'roll (classics, alternative, indie, grunge...) but I appreciate all kind of good music (reggae, brazilian music, blues...) and I love to dance!!
I have a terrible memory so is hard for me to remember names of movies but is difficult to forget something like Clockwork Orange, Pulp Fiction (or any Tarantino's movie) or Titanic (yep, that was a joke!). Something a need to confess: I'm addicted in Netflix series!
The book that I'm reading know: Cien años de soledad, Gabriel Gracia Marquez
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Swim with marine turtles at Hawai was amazing but I think that I'm doing right now the most incredible thing of my life: backpacking alone through South America (and Panama) with no date of return.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can always share my knowledge about tropical forests, nature conservation and sustainability. I really appreciate a good (and clever) conversation!
I can give amazing tips about Brazil, which includes places, language, food, and music! About food, I love to cook and will be a pleasure to cook for you - but then you wash the dishes ;) - or teach you some recipe.
What I Can Share with Hosts
How about some samba or forró classes?
Will be a pleasure share any knowledge/experience that I have with you! Drink some beers togheter and have a good time is always available!
