COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I have attended a few local meetings and introduced myself to some members. I'm enjoying my time with new people and hoping to make good friends!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm somewhat eclectic, and I like almost all types of music. Some highlights include U2, The Black Eyed Peas, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Train, and Shakira. If you call me to a rock show, I'll go and love it! I also like Brazilian music: Pitty, Arnaldo Antunes, Titãs, Capital Inicial, Vanessa da Mata, Tribalistas.

I enjoy science fiction movies, and I'm a big fan of the Star Trek franchise. One of my tattoos has an easter egg about it.

I like reading J.R.R. Tolkien, Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Dan Brown, and all good authors like the above. I have a small library at home (over 400 titles), and I recently shifted my reading towards non-Western authors. I've been reading a lot of African titles and some European ones, too (primarily in French).

As I said, I'm eclectic. Before I say I don't like it, I'll check it - and I'll most likely enjoy it. I exclude prejudice from my life and try not to judge a book by its cover.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I booked a last-minute trip to Peru with someone I met two months before. I felt a deep connection to the land and people there, and I felt connected to my inner self. It was an unforgettable self-discovery trip. I fancy going there a couple more times, one of which is to take on the challenge of walking the Inca Trail. Do you want to join me?

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn French, Spanish, and Italian - maybe Japanese in the future. I believe I can help people learning English and, of course, Portuguese.

I have excellent computer skills, especially when you are talking about programming and you can ask me to help you solve problems with your code.

Artificial intelligence is my area of passion and research, and I work developing computer games. Ask me anything about it, and we'll have an excellent time. Ask me anything about physics, and we'll discover it together.
