ABOUT ME

You can find me in the same week getting up early to hit someones head in a rugby training, or to buy some organic veggies and preparing a vegan meal for a bunch of friends, or with a monster hangover for partying & deejaying some pop music, or after a marathon of rocksteady and early reggae with some anti-racists skinheads.

PHILOSOPHY

Positive Mental Attitude.
We´re already lucky to be able to do what we can. So let´s do it right now!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Host and been hosted some people before joining. Now I have my own house (wich is open to any CS, even if I´m traveling), and will try to stay with as more people as I can. Is the best way to know the real deal of the place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed friends couches in California and Rio de Janeiro before joining CS.
Just started surfing in New Zealand with CS help, and it´s been amazing.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Greta Garbo all the way. Tarantino, Tim Burton documentaries, political and historical remakes... Lots of Romantic comedy, that´s my girlie side talking :)
Every kind of music at the rught time. From ska, early reggae, rocksteady; to commercial pop, boybads, pop divas; to punk, harcore, straight edge, oi; to euro dance, drum´n´bass, electro, french house; to classic, operas; to blues, jazz, swing... and of course some samba, chorinho, forró, pagode, sertanejo universitário... The secret is to always have fun
Even though I´m a journalist, I have a great speed problem with reding, it takes me an era to finish a book. But I love brazilian literature, as Machado de Assis, Guimarães Rosa and Jorge Amado.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Births. Helping my dog´s two births was absolutely wonderful.
And once in Bahia, after de Carnival, me and a couple friends went to this water turtle santuary from Projeto Tamar. We helped two beatiful blond catarinenses to dig the wet sand, pick and catalogue 16 baby turtles. Than, at sunset, with a rainbow over the Atlantic Ocean and a amazing pink sky, we put the babies in the beach and watch them go to the sea. Once the marine turtles goes back to the place they were born to lay their eggs, they´ll remember me too! Just fantastic!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Can teach some shiatsu, portuguese, capoeira, samba drums and dance, skateboarding, all for begginners :)
Always keen to share some cooking skills. More to learn than to teach actually.
Would love to learn to grow my own vegetables. I come from the grey city of São Paulo Concrete Jungle, than I have sooo little knowledge about veges for a vegetarian :(
