About Me

I'm just someone learning from the past, enjoying the present and heading to the future. In this process, a Couchsurfing profile is worthier than a LinkedIn's.

I live with my wife and we've decided recently to be more present in CS events and in hosting people. We like to have a balanced life which includes working, studying, gym and weekend's hang outs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"In learning about how the world works, we are constantly overestimating personal experiences and minimizing statistics." Thibaut

Couchsurfing helps me to pick up a better sample of the society, then I can get a less biased point of view about the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like several kinds of songs, mainly brazilian's. Jack Johnson is one of my favorites singers.
Lately, I've been enjoying indie folk songs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking in Southern Africa... Volcano Boarding in Nicarágua, Downhill in Bolivia on the death road, it was really amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat" Theodore Roosevelt
