My name is Paulo Basil, I'm a 30 years old Brazilian journalist that lives in Malta. I work as a receptionist in a hostel in Malta and, before that, I lived 2 years in Dublin (Ireland) working in a hostel there. One of my passions is to travel. I love to visit new places, meet new people, have new experiences. I also have my own blog about travel (www.damoocaparaomundo.com.br), that is written in Portuguese, but I started the process of translation to English (that's my goal, to have a bilingual blog, even though I`m too lazy for it sometimes hahaha ).
I have already visited some countries (my last counting said 20) and seeking to add new places to this list.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a journalist, it is my job to meet new people and know about their lives, their stories, their experiences. As a traveler, this is not a job, this my own passion! I think Couchsurfing is one of the most exciting and easy ways to travel, meet new people and share you stories with people that love to travel.

Interests

I love blogs, to travel, to meet new people, to eat delicious food and to try new drinks. Also, I love to write everything about it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a pop guy, but kind of eclectic. Talking about movies, I'm totally addicted to cinema, there is no just one movie or director or actor that I prefer, I appreciate this art in general. And book, love fiction books!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To have written a book, some years ago

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a journalist, post-graduated in digital media, that stays 100% of the time connected.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Unfortunately, I can't, because in Dublin I share my apartment with other people and we don't have space for now. But I hope this is going to change. Anyway, I can be a good guide at least!
