Overview
About Me
Young Brazilian guy working in Portugal as a researcher in the Naval/Ocean Engineering field.
Love listening to music and play jazz (bass guitar), love cinema, literature and traveling too.
Please feel free too send me requests. I have a tent and a sleeping bag so you can camp on the rooftop :D (I won´t charge)

Teach, Learn, Share
I guess sharing knowledge is the most important implicit human process.
Education may be explicit but it's also uneven.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Cheese, beer and music/film recommendations.
I have some good Brazilian barrel-aged cachaça too, but all my jealousy is directed toward those bottles. Behave yourself and you might get a shot ;D
