About Me
ABOUT ME
In general, I'm a rational, calm and quite easygoing person. I may seem shy at first, but nothing that a beer doesn't fix :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Sharing experiences and tips about the places I've been
Interests
Music is a passion! Wherever I am, some good music can always turns the place better. Blues, soul, jazz, black music, rock, indie, samba, Brazilian music... Each moment has a sound track :)
Exploring cultures is definitely another passion. I love travelling and learning about cultures, history, meeting people, exchanging experiences and hanging out. Differences around the world amuse me. I am always looking for new experiences and for trying new things.
I love having moments with my friends. Simple moments, like hanging out in a cozy place, cooking something together, watching a movie, having a good beer, being stupid and laughing about anything.
