About Me

ATTENTION PLEASE:
I don't live in the city of São Paulo. I live in a town named Campo Mourão, Paraná State, South of Brazil.
If my place is the place you wanna visit, you'll be more than welcome! :D

CURRENT MISSION

I collect smiles, and I wanna see the world!

ABOUT ME

"He who does not travel does not know the value of men." (African proverb)
Traveling is my ultimate passion, my motivation and inspiration in life, my drug, my medicine. I believe everybody can become a better person by having this fantastic and enriching experience. Know other cultures, breath other airs, taste different foods, listen to distinct sounds, languages and accents, smell unusual scents, make new friends and above all: get to know who YOU really are.
I'm very easygoing and always ready to help. You are welcome to my house and I will be pleased to help you, whatever might be your doubt about Brazil.
So, see you, here or there! :o)

PHILOSOPHY

Respect to be respected!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy hosting as much I enjoy being hosted.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies that can teach me something or that can make me laugh pretty hard.

If the music is good to your ears, stop, listen and surrender to it.
For me, the classical music rocks! :o)

I like all books that make me travel lying on my bed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

From sleeping under the stars in the Sahara desert to hot-air balloning in Capadocia and paragliding in Oludeniz Bay in Turkey; from biking in Czech Republic's countryside to horseback riding in the hills of Colombia, from partying hard in the islands of Greece to a very spiritual journey in beautiful Central America; from exploring all regions of Brazil to shyly but determinatedly start traveling into the east part of this planet; and so on...
I can say I've seen a lot, but I'm hungry for more!

Teach, Learn, Share

Always willing to teach what I know, to learn what I don't know, and to share both.

What I Can Share with Hosts
