Just a Brazilian guy trying to get the most of life, living in the present, preparing somehow to the future and cherishing good memories from the past.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The world is huge and very interesting, meeting people from other cultures and being able to share my own, while having a beer and eating homemade food is one of the richest experiences one can have.

Interests

I like both nature and urban environments, in the nature I enjoy doing some trails (hikking or biking) although I'm very slow for climbing and I also love camping and watching sunrises and sunsets.

On the city, I enjoy going to concerts and events with live music.

I like to surf when I can and skate when I can't surf.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, specially blues, rock, jazz, reggae and Brazilian music. I almost always have some music playing.

I like to read and watch movies, but I often struggle with dividing my time equally between both.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I trekked the Salkantay trail in Peru to Machu Picchu for 5 days, it was a truely rich experience.

I spent two consecutive new year's eve camping, one with friends in an almost deserted beach in the coast of São Paulo and in the following year, with a bunch of other couchsurfer's, mostly strangers to each other in the mountains around Barcelona near an abandoned mine. Both experiences were awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a decent cook, so if you are really basic pherhaps I could teach you some recipes.

I also can teach you how to ride a surf-skate if I have it with me and I'm also learning to play the harmonica, so I could share some of that knowledge too.

I study Data Science and Artificial Intelligence so I'm always keen on discussing this topic, sharing what I know and hearing people's thoughts on the matter.
