ABOUT ME
Travel addicted.
I'm a 22 years old calm guy. Maybe not a big talker and also serious at first sight but that's because I'm shy (just a little)... Except for that, I'm very comfortable meeting strangers and end up making new friends easily.
I just try to make the best to people and see the best in them, that, I believe, is a lifestyle.
I love riding my bike. No matter if it's raining, if it's a dirt road or an urban scenery. I'm also a music lover, trying to go to all of those huge festivals.
I'm not a party guy, which don't mean I'm boring and old!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
As a travel addicted, I love the idea of this community, which also changed my vision of the world! I try to host and surf when I can and used to help the former Location Fixers Team, fixing Brazilian cities database.

Music, Movies, and Books
Ok, let's talk about passions!
I really like reading, and my favorite books are these:
1. all of the Bukowski works;
Cem dias entre céu e mar - Amyr Klink
1984 and Animal farm - George Orwell
The Almighty - Irwing Wallace
On The Road - Jack Kerouac
Into The Wild - Jon Krakauer
Around the World in 80 Days - Julio Verne
The Godfather - Mario Puzo
Cien Años de Soledad - Gabriel Garcia Marquez
El Aleph - Jorge Luis Borges
Steppenwolf - Herman Hesse
Music rules my life, no more words. That's what I enjoy the most: Pearl Jam, Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Gogol Bordello, Kings of Convenience, The Pine Hill Haints, Radiohead, Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys and also all of Jack White's bands!
LastFM
I'm one of those that goes to cinema alone, if necessary. Some movies that changed me in some way:
Into The Wild, Fight Club, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, 127 Hours, Easyrider and The Motorcycle Diaries.
