Often attempt to avoid mediocrity and superficiality. Doesn't mean I'm successful though.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Per my attempts to avoid superficiality, I hope to forge a not-superficial connection with the places I travel to by getting to know the people there.

I specifically signed up to Couchsurfing (1/2015) in anticipation of my upcoming 1-week trip to Paris. I have been learning French for more than 3 years, and I look forward to conversing with my potential hosts and embarrassing myself with my fledgling French over there ;).

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I write stuff about things I want to do, some of which are very frivolous (going to Paris to watch old movies), and people give me money to do these things.
