Overview
About Me
I'm talkative open minded and an extremely curious person, the biggest foodie ever (I may also be a little funny...but again...thats mostly on tuesdays and fridays).
I love meeting new people, and cultural exchanges...makes me feel like there's a ton of things i havent seen and experienced yet. Keeps me from being a little too satisfied and comfortable. I have a new found love for travelling and I plan to do it much more often. As much of an extrovert and social guy I seem to be, I enjoy a cup of coffee, a book to read/a pencil to sketch and a quiet corner, more than anything.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Initially I signed up for couchsurfing because it was a cheaper option to travel and stay...but after getting hosted in Rio, I realized that couchsurfing is more than just a free bed and a shower, if you meet the right people...my reason now is to host people, to get hosted, experience and learn about different cultures, first hand.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
It was always a dream for me to learn to ride a horse. In Brazil, my host's uncle had a farm with a couple of horses in the stables. It was a little scary initially, but when you get the hang of it, it is literally the most wonderful experience ever!...its like therapy...only that you dont end up paying a buttload of money per hour....oh wait...I'm a counsellor...damn...forget everything I said.
