I'm the most enthusiastic introvert person you'll ever met. I can be quite shy to start conversations, but after a while (or some beers) I will be one of your best friends.
Also quite a nerd and smart guy. Not that I'm brilliant or anything, I just know a lot of stuff. Most of them useless, but hey... I know.

I'm from the Winterfell of Brazil (A.k.a Rio Grande do Sul), one of the few cold places on that melting hot country. After finishing college I decided to change things a little bit so I quit my job and moved to Dublin/Ireland. Just like that. Why? Still trying to figure it out. After 9 months there I got bored again and decided to make a difference somewhere to someone and I decided to volunteer around Europe. I met amazing people, did things I wouldn't imagine and I think I was happier than never before.

I tried and gave up so many things in my life that I don't see myself as a quitter anymore, maybe I just like having different perspectives.
I'm a storyteller and creative who haven't found its place in the world yet. I love Graphic Design, Video, photography and words. Anything that I can use to tell a story.
So that's me. Basically.
Actually there's a lot more, but we can talk face to face one day.

Here's my facebook. I'm a real person :D

Oh, and I love emojis/emoticons/smile faces. I use them as a punctuation system ;)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Because I love interesting and amazing people. I hosted a handful of people so far and the things I learned and experiences we share had a huge impact on me.
I reeeally don't want to sound cheesy but what makes traveling fascinating is the people you meet.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Volunteering and backpacking around Europe without a goal or a plan while money lasts. It was my lifetime adventure.

I also hitchhiked from Dublin To Belfest with a friend, no plan and a bag full of sandwiches. It was amazing, frustrating, tiring, exciting, everything at once. I met so many kind people on the road and made great friends wherever we went. Plus, on the ride back to home we got a ride with an american football team. Things that happens on the road. :P
