Overview
About Me
PLEASE - READ MY PROFILE BEFORE SENDING ME REQUEST.
POR FAVOR - LEIA O PERFIL ANTES DE ENVIAR PEDIDOS.
CURRENT MISSION
Try to be happy with who you are, what you have, what you eat, where you live. If you are not happy, it is time to change something in your life. Do it! Don´t complain. Life is beautiful and too short!
ABOUT ME
I am a person who loves being in contact with nature, but also loves being in contact with a good movie and a comfy couch. I used to be very open mind and fearless. But, I have changed a little, and now I am more reserved. I still love people around, and love people in my house, but because I live all myself, I have some rules and I dislike when people don´t respect them.
PHILOSOPHY
Be what you wanna be, without harming other
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Whenever I can, I attend CS meetings and I try to host and couch. I use to attend some CS meetings in my city, Porto Alegre. Because I moved so many times in the past few years, I haven´t had much time for CS. But now, I am settled down and I am back in CS.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've been in CS for already 10 years and I only have good experiences.
Interests
I like things that make people happy and confortable. I like things that make people glad and thankful.
- pets
- exercise
Music, Movies, and Books
Several and super eclectic
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'd had the oportunity to know Arizona (see the Grand Canyons and Native American Indians are amazing).
Also I've lived almost 2 years in the Golden State, California - USA.
I traveled around some countries: Hungary, Zech Republic, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, Germany, France, Netherland, Belgium, England, Portugal, Spain, Greece, Irland, Sweeden, Finland, Malaysia, Uruguay and Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru...
But some amazing things that I really have done was to have a horse!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have an available couch.I am living in Porto Alegre, where is quite fine to get around by bus. My house though, is far away for the bus station, and unfortunately in a bad neighboorhood.
I don´t have an extra blanket or mattress, but you are welcome to come with sleeping bags.
I don´t have pets and smoke is not allowed.
I work in diferent cities, so I might leave early and come back home late. Don't expect me to leave you alone in my flat, or give you a key. Those are liberties I exercise with people I know or trust for some particular reason. If you are one of those people, I'll invite you to stay in or offer you a key. Don't bother asking, and be ready to leave when I do. =)
Also, please, when sending a couchrequest, some pointers:
First, use the CouchRequest tool.
Secondly, use my name, and comment on my profile, tell me what you found more interesting about me, so I can know you have actually read it, and why you want to stay on MY couch, not on ANY couch.
Thirdly, work on your profile. I DON'T host people without complete profiles, or with zero or too few friends/references/pictures. Come on, help me help you, OK? =) And if there is more than one surfer, send me everyone's profile.
