About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I joined this project to help NYC tourists and POSSIBLY find some lost relatives in the process.

ABOUT ME

Well, I currently work a 9-5 as Site Manager for a National Monument in NYC. I enjoy thrashy novels, good wine, rare meat, and candles. I don't smoke but I love the smell and the taste of it.

When I'm not working in the office I'm doing artist management and promotional work from home, writing reviews for music e-zines, and you can find me at Jupiter4Studio in Queens. I'm their Assistant Engineer. When I'm not using my free time working for clients, I'm working towards a terminal degree, and searching for new employment.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't wait for an absolution. I live to live, and believe we cross paths with people many times before we become a part of theirs... destiny does exist, things happen for a reason.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None, but I'm actually on this site searching for anyone that might know my relatives. My father left Brazil at the age of 15 to work for the Swedish Merchant Marines. I'd like to visit Brazil someday, and both my father and I would desperately like to find his family...

Raw meat, red wine, espresso, good conversation.
