Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had two Couchsurfing experiences so far: one in Paris and another in Amsterdam. Both of them were amazing, not only because I met really nice people along my journey but also for made me feel truly a member of this community. It's really good when you see a city through a local's point of view - and that's why I've been so grateful to CS for makig sharing moments with people way easier.

Interests

Music definitely at first. I am a festival goer and I love these environments fulfilled with a good music and a good booze. No better way to spend a nice day I guess. In my short list experiences: Lollapalooza @ Sao Paulo, Brazil 2012 / Field Day London @ London 2013 / T in the Park @ Kinross, Scotland 2013
Creative-like things in general catch my attention. I used to draw when I was younger and now I've been trying colourwash, I need to learn a few more tecniques though.
History used to be one of my favourite subjects at high school. I like to discuss it, to hear somebody else opinion about a certain fact. Lately I am into reading economy and history both linked, it's so interesting to understand how nowadays global dynamcs happens.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

.Hitch-hiking from Paris to Amsterdam and suddenly while we were near Antwerpen, Belgium we were picked up by a PUBLIC BUS. The driver had finished his work that day and used to hitch-hike before to further places in Africa. Both amazing and cool, things that happen by chance and turn out to be one great experience.

.Volunteering with poor children in my hometown, Recife - Brazil. Life is more than yourself and in fact I was the one to be gifted not them really.

.Seen: Night view of Berlin from the Berliner Fernsehturm in the very center of the city at the Alexanderplatz.

.Moroccan Desert Tour was one of the greatest mind-blowing experiences I've ever had.
