About Me

Lived most of my life in Rio, and spent the past 3 years living in Sydney, Australia! Love Brazil but violence here is too much for me, so decided to move to different places. After having the best time in Sydney, will be moving to Portugal end of July (2018) to build my life there. Adventures to come...

I'm passionate about music - playing or dancing, just love it. I can play the drums, guitar, ukulele and percussion in general. Love dancing forró (Brazilian style), zouk/reggaeton, samba.

Other than that, just a chilled out, open minded and forward thinking guy :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Will travel a bit around Europe, so would be great if could save some $ in accommodation at the same time as meeting some locals!

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music is preeetty wide... From classic 80's rock n' roll to hip hop / r&b, EDM to salsa, etc.
I'm the worst at remembering movies names, so I'd rather not name the ones that come to mind because I'm sure they're not actually the most relevant ones - but in a nutshell I'd usually prefer the ones that make you think about topics you don't usually think about, and change the way you see things. Comedy is also a good call when it's of good quality :)
Books - unfortunately not the biggest reader, but some I enjoyed in the past include Consuming Life, Digital Fortress, some Agatha Christie, and of course all Harry Potter books, plus The Hobbit.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
