About Me

I'm a lighthearted guy, that never miss a change to put a smile in the face of my friends. I like to talk any time about anything, or just listen a good story.
All my passions are related to discovery, i love to discover new songs, new bands, new games, new people, new places, new tastes, new jokes, new science theories (or at least read about it). maybe that's why i'm a Scientist here in Brazil, in the future I wish to became a researcher and teacher.

I'm a vegetarian, but besides that I try to eat every new food that I can try. Also I love dogs and cats, here in Brazil I have a dog and 4 cats!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, visit new places, live new experiences!
In a very interesting way to be really connected with the people around the world.

Interests

My interests is meeting new people, travel to places that I've been before, also I interested in science and history in general, also in board games, music, movies, although I'm not a sports guy but i enjoy water sports, specially swimming. At same time i'm a little geeky I like to dance (but not alone, however), I can dance some typical dances from Brazil, like Forró and Samba (probably not the one that you see on TV), and I'm interested in learn new dances around the world, or at least see people dancing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a music addicted, specially Rock, my favorites bands are Porcupine tree, Oasis, System of Down, Metallica, Alter Bridge, Diablo Swing Orchestra, and well many others =). I listen to nearly everything else, just rock is my passion!

I'm also really into movies and series, also comic books. I really like superhero movies, suspense and criminal movies. My favorite movies is the from Marvel Studios (also Netflix series such as Jessica Jones, Daredevil), Star Wars and Game of Thrones, Sherlock from BBC also one that I really enjoyed. I like comedy, and my favorite is "How I Met Your Mother". . I try to watch new movies every week.

My Favorite comic book is X-men, and the book series of Lord of the Rings, however I do not spent too much time on reading (book or comics - Shame on me!)

This is not a Music, Movies or Book, but I really love board games. I started my collection back in 2012, and now i have a pretty amount of games in my house ( if you visit you'll see, and perhaps play some =D).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well professionally one thing that I proud of is that I met some of the scientists of my field, talk to them, laugh with them! I don't know if you are a person that work with science but met the person that you studied his/her theories, his/her studies, chanced myself to be a better professional, so met them, no virtual, shake hand with them is an indescribably good feeling!

Another thing is my You Tube channel dedicated to one of my Hobbies: Board games. It is a small channel, but I menage to have some regular viewers, in this channel I conducted some live interviews with some great Brazilian board games authors, people that I'm fan of. also it is a amazingly feeling to talk to those people!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I eager to learn almost anything, I'm a good listener and student, I promise! So if you want to teach anything from a sport, to a new food recipe, be my guest (or ins this case my teacher!)

However learning new languages (and enhancing My english) is one of my first thing to learn. In the second place, I want to learn, how to play some instrument, I took some guitar classes in the past, but maybe I'll try to take some singing or perhaps drums class! (but I must say, music is my passion but I don't talent to play, so cover yours ears :D )

I can teach/share every thing that I know, everything that I say that I love, here can can try to teach or at least show... like I sad i want t be a teacher in the future, so i'll never say no to a person that want to learn something that I knew.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook some Typical Brazilian recipe. I can show some great Brazilian songs, and of course I can present some Boardgames!
