I love to understand and experience other cultures. I'm a very good observer and love to hear what other people have to say and I always learn from it. I love to cook and eat plant-based food. The world, the nature, its cycles and the humans that live in it amaze me and move me. A good company and a nice chat matter much more to me than a specific plan or location to have fun. I like to connect and share. Don't have a facebook account. instagram.com/pipocagold

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Get to know new people with different perspectives of life. Good to know you have a really good chance of making at least one friend when you're visiting a new city.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a good story to read, but my favorites are culinary books. Currently obssessed with the Neapolitan Novels, "PANCS no Brasil" (Non-conventional edible plants in Brazil), and the recent publication from Paola Carosella, "Todas as Sextas".
With a good company I watch mostly anything. Love "The Fox and The Hound" and "Les Mis".
Every kind of Brazilian music, pop, punk, jazz, blues... anything really, if it suits the mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got to start 2016 at the top of Pedra da Gavea; Dropped out of college to learn things the way I truly believe in; Followed my favorite band throughout my country and made friends for life;

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some ancient knowledge on food and ways of eating. I also know how to cook well, can always share what I know. I can share a lot of Brazilian culture and love to learn about other cultures as well. Let me know what you'd like for dinner and I'll try my best to make it happen (w/out animal products)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good plant-based meal, my vision of Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian culture and nice chats. I'm very sensible to others I share space with, I can always help with little thins that are needed throughout my stay. I can share my knowledge on Ayurveda if you want.
