About Me

When i've write something about myself is very difficult to forget a quote from Simone de Beauvoir: "I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want." And in this difficult is where i found my meaning to live. Because every day for me its a new day to try to accomplish my goals and fulfill the need of being who i am. I want to have i life without regrets, but with a lot of mistakes so i can learn better and became a better person to myself and to the people around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The ideia of doing an exchange of cultures, languages, opinions, ideas, dream, etc. For me is something really amazing, and most of the times that we do trips and travels to other places for a short time, we don't get the chance to know, discover and understand the place for real and most of the people go only to the places that they heard, because it's the place for tourists and sometimes this places are not what really represents where are you going.
So, I joined Courchsurfing because i have the need to Learn, Discover and Experience life and the things that life can offer, since a place on the ground of someone house till the expensive hotel room, because every day we have to face challenges and we are the ones who choose smile at them or cry at them. And i prefer to Smile, so when someone Couchsurf me i don't care if its a luxury place or a simple one, because i'm doing it for the experience and to create histories.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a huge taste for Music and definitely I don't create barriers when listen to music. If the music has good lyrics and/or rhythm i'm listening to it. Because of it if i tried to write my singers or bands would take a lot of time, so here's my Spotify profile if you want a clue about it: https://open.spotify.com/user/31lo7pishzquhipezpn4cfksnffi?si=ikpp40soS82CRM1C4vlnJg

In my insomnia night's I very used to watch movies and series, so I develop a taste for movies, Beginning from horror movies to Age Romances or Comedies to Dramas. I'm also a big fan of Documentaries. This is not my oficial top 10 but I would probably choose something like: Inception, Wild, Forrest Gump, Interstellar, City of God, Into the Wild, The Dreamers, Call me by your name and others.

For books I love Brazilians author and thats something that I could really share with my hosts are some authors as Machado de Assis, Clarice Lispector, Guimarães Rosa, Manuel de Barros, Paulo Leminski, Vinicius de Morais, Nelson Rodrigues. I Also love books from the Victorian Age, like Oscar Wilde. And authors like George Orwell, Vladimir Nabokov, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Agatha Christie, George R. R. Martin, Jane Austen and André Acimann
