CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
Regarding friendship:
- I like to make new friends as the same time;
- I like to keep the old ones.

Regarding culture:
- I love to get involved with different culture and get to know them better... and knowing new people is the best way of doing it.

Miscellaneous:
- I consider myself very organized (in a good way);
- Always up for hiking, camping or adventures in general;
- In the beginning I can be shy, but afterwords I'm very talkative.

IMPORTANT NOTE (maybe): Brazilians have the habit of hugging people for greeting. If suddenly I hug you... don't take it wrong. I'm just saying 'Hi!' haha :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hosting or being host is the best way to mingle; to know and learn from each other; to get in touch with different cultures. And this is something incredible. I love it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While traveling in a road trip with one of my best friends and my girlfriend in Iceland, we went to the Westnorth of the country, where are the Fjords. We stopped at the side of the road at the top of a fjord with a landscape I will never forget... It was awesome! We had a fjord a few miles away in front of us across the sea, and it was half covered by snow and the other half 'filled' by natural bedrocks. On the other side there was just a beautiful green fjord covered by grass. And in between these two, right in the horizon, there was the Sun... Still shining for us, even that it was already midnight. It was on July.
I played some songs in the guitar and we sang together for a while. And before we decided to camp there I proposed to my girlfriend, and now, we are engaged :)
... It was everything planned, my friend also knew and helped me to plan the proposal. Plus, I made a really good friend in Iceland that gave some really useful and helpful tips!

... This is something I will never forget.
