About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Know others cultures and values to reach to a approximated idea of what supposed to be the meaning of life.

ABOUT ME

(Updated)

It's have been long since I updated my profile cause of the many things that happened in my life in these last few months (maybe years, jeje). I am sorry for all the people whose messages weren't answered during this period.

Passing by only to say the current news. I'm now living in Brasília, capital of Brazil and also a tourist place (less known than Rio de Janeiro and Salvador cities, but still). Here is known by its revolucionary 60's architecture made by Oscar Niemeyer (well, at least the monumental axis).

And now I am able to guest some people in my home. So, if someone would like to meet this wonderful place - and also have nice references - just call me :). I promisse to keep checking here more often.

******************

I'm 25 and live in Brasilia, Brasil. I love travelling - in fact, this is one of the best things I do better, lol - and this is one of the reasons why I got interested in the Couch Surf. I either like reading, meeting new people, going to the beach and other things. Studying journalism is a way of knowing different areas of knowledge and meet a vast number of people from different countries and kinds.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm agnostic, have my political ideas centered on democracy, well-fare state and union and civil achievements.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll catch this empty place to announce that I have preferences to host women instead of man. Why did I started to have this policy? Because:

- Well... we live in a sexist world, unfortunately :'(. And I would like to be more careful about it.

Interests

  • reading
  • traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

Love MPB (Brazilian popular music), jazz (revival and cool), and specific kind of rock (only knowing me to understand).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have already trekked the Inca trail, in Peru, where goes to Machu Picchu without taking the train.

And I've lived in Sevilla, Spain, as an exchange student. If you are sevillian, we have lot of things to catch up :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share the brazilian culture and informations about the city where I live. I love making myself a tourist guide, what is included suggestions about many places to go out and have fun \o\ \o/ /o/.

And I can dance very well, not matter what rhythm. Enjoy it!

I have a particular problem: I'm only a good company until 3 AM. I am a morning person :B.
