About Me

CURRENT MISSION

New life, everyday

ABOUT ME

I like to travel (of course), but mainly to know people around the world, with different points of view about the world and about very small things, that I would never pay attention in my day by day life.

I am not a very traditional Brazilian: dont like samba, dislike crowd beaches, and HATE Rio summer hot weather. But I love to walk around and talk about everything.

[This was the profile of me and my ex-wife. As we are still very good friends, I decide to keep with it, to make things easier.]

PHILOSOPHY

Make the easy things a little harder.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I receive people and show how Rio can be more than Corcovado, Copacabana and Sugar Loaf. Or I can show different angles of these places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been always surprised by the surfers: they are always great.

Interests

It is a great opportunity to know different people from different places. Or, it's just a chance to see faces that are not our neighbours.
