I was born and raised in Brasília, Brazil. Then I moved to São Paulo for three and a half years for studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of São Paulo. Since then, it has started my pursuit for new experiences. I found out travelling is much more than buying flight tickets and returning back home with some nice pictures. Instead, it's the opportunity to find out who you truly are and what you really want. Now, I'm spending two years in Turin, Italy, for finishing my studies in Automotive Engineering.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

New experiences. Every single one of them. For me, the most important thing in our lives is to experience the world around us: to taste the coffee of that weird bar at the corner; to try to stand over a surf board; to watch the concert that your indie-heavy-classical- ... -allinone rock fan friend recommended you.

Every single one of them!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If you want to find a great brazilian northeast's region guide, you just did it! In 2015, in summer, I travelled all the coast from the north of Espírito Santo to the Parnaíba river's delta. So if you want some hints, I'm the right guy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Two things I've been trying to learn in the last years are to play the guitar and to surf. Also, I've always been a good teacher: languages (grammar lover S2); math, physics, and so on.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of fun, Brazil's travelling hints, a great deal of stories (most of them really funny) and, of course, a new friend.
