Overview
About Me
Brazilian-italian, born and raised in France, I had the chance to travel around Europe and the world since I'm young. This summer I'll be cycling from Bilbao to Istanbul on a two months long trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Crossing the entire northern costs of the mediterranean sea by bike wouldn't make sense if I did not take the time to meet its inhabitants !
Interests
I've studied mathematics and philosophy, and I'm very fond of both. I'm also a very regular cyclist, and I'm also interested in football (I'm a big Arsenal fan). In my travels I also felt in love with Japan and am very in love with its culture.

Music, Movies, and Books
I like Bossa Nova music, classical music but also electro swing.
My favourite author is Milan Kundera, but I like many others: Balzac, Camus, Hemingway, Alessandro Baricco...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Trekking from Ladakh to Kashmir in India during a period of heavy rains in a region totally cut of the world by mud floods. A real two weeks long survival trip, with a lot of incredible memories left.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm a good bicycle mechanic, mathematician, philosopher. I'm not bad at coding in Python if it can help !
First thing I would like to learn is your favourite recipe !
