I am a musician, guitar and violin. I study anthropology, so I like staying to get to know how local culture works. I don't very much like touristy activities like tours, and I do like museums and beaches (I try not to use the word "but").

I love learning. I like learning new ways of communicating, and I like travel for the instant and deep connections you make with a stranger.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I am just finishing up research in Malta about migration. I have never traveled Europe before, and I really don't like the idea of hotels where I can go in and leave and never meet anyone. I want to get to know the way people live around where I travel because I think somewhere deep down I'm searching for a new way of life. For now, I look forward to cultural exchange and the opportunity to learn from people who know the area better than I.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I made some sweet potato pies for Thanksgiving at the local homeless shelter in Santa Monica. As I was taking my pie around offering slices, a man took a bite and almost cried because it reminded him so much of the pie his mother used to make because so few people make sweet potato pie in the first place.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

I play violin, and back home I teach guitar and music. I bring my musical aptitude.
I can cook Mexican food! (Everybody loves Mexican food!)
I love language and culture exchange, so I'd love to figure that out.
