About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life to the most. And never, never hesitate

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm kinda new to this CS stuff and I really don't know what to say.

I'm Brazilian, born in São Paulo, and currently living there after moving around a bit.

I have lived in the south of Brazil for a small period, in a small town by the border with Argentina. It was a very calm and bucolic place, which I did not enjoy very much. However, I did have the chance to learn Spanish (which I almost completely forgot).
After that, I moved to Vitoria, ES, a city by the beach in the southeast of Brazil. Sunny and absurdly hot all year. There I studied Computer Science at the university, and during that time, I took an internship in Luxembourg!

Being in Luxembourg for 6 months was a great experience. I lived in a university student residence with 16 other people, from Italy, Senegal, Serbia, Sweden, Morocco, and so on.
It was CRAZY!

I like to think that I'm a good guy to be along with (that's what I hear around here). I like music, almost all kinds of music, really do.. but I don't play any instruments yet.

I like talking to people and I like watching the world, seeing all the same stuff no matter where you are, and also seeing what makes places and people unique. I like parties and I like books. I like walking around in a cold and gray skied day. I like cooking and I just love coffee.

PHILOSOPHY

To enjoy life to the most and to not hold yourself back just because someone (or maybe the whole world) thinks you're wrong. Never hesitate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I'm just starting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tried using it when I was in Luxembourg, but none was available to receive me. I've never been able to host anyone, as I've never had any room for that. I've been available to walk around the city for sometime. Sadly, I still haven't done that also.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Besides being alive? Everything.
Everything's amazing if you really think about it.
Maybe those smiles you give and receive back from a complete stranger. Those are really great.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well.. I know a lot about computers and website making.. And maybe cooking? Well.. I can share everything I've learned or seen as long as someone is interested..
