About Me

Hello fellow CS's

After a few sedentary years hosting surfers from all over the planet, maybe from other planets too 😅, I'm finally getting the chance to travel a little.

I'm a musician born in Santa Catarina - southern Brasil - from several different roots like native American Indian, North european and Rom (Gipsy).

...Currently earning my living as busking performer at the citys I pass by- for any hosting help is super welcome 🙈👊

I'm a former professional Judo competitor, and Surfer, something I still do at the first opportunity. Pretty much into roller skating now.

I'm not very into silly partygoing, preferring more meaningfull experiences, usually relying on myself inner resources to get amusance (to me, every self improvement must come from within, avoiding external estimulation). But don't get me wrong though - if it sounds line a good plan, I'm IN! 🏹 😅 (best if it's weird!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just intend to be a good host, and better guest.

Years before CS was born - when I was traveling a lot more -, I've been helped quite a few times, and helping other travelers was a perfect way to give this energy back to the universe.

Interests

music, sports, science, arts in general.

Nutritioning, unaverage feeding habits (fasting included).

Anarcho-individualism, pagan-agnosticism, hedonism. Or just any field... I love them all!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a music freak, and love virtually any kind of artistic expression! I love with all my heart all sort of music, from sounds of nature to virtually any ethnomusic, classical, Experimental Electronic, jazzy stuff or my cherry pick - Hard Rock - from softest to hardest. (L.A. Glam scene to Extreme Black Metal). I tend not to appreciate mainstreamy groups though. I also sometimes may stand average radios content (like when I'm at the gym), just to realize how insanely good to me is what I usually listen to... quite a bit into Stoner rock right now (though I never had any "oficial drug"...). There barely has any kind of music I haven't heard yet on this planet...

Books... I love reading specially latin american literature like Luis Sepulveda for this way of intense expression is my lifeblood - a guy who writes with a knife! - but also appreciate just universal works... and scientific articles. My favorite writter lately has been Amelie Nothomb. Her ultrarealistic aesthetic speaks a lot to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

From all I do in my life, nothing is comparable to Surfing...

Teach, Learn, Share

flow, ethics and coherence are my favourite rules...

What I Can Share with Hosts

nice vibes, some help in housework (I can fix anything!), whatever may be necessary..! (I also tend to invert in wine for everybody what I'd actually be expending with tasteless hostals...). You'll choose!

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Uruguay

Countries I’ve Lived In

Brazil, France, Germany, Spain
