I’m a Brazilian medical doctor born and raised in João Pessoa but currently living in Porto Alegre. Bit of a nerd, super into music and not a huge fan of hot weather (we always want what we can’t have, right?). I’m currently studying principles and practice of clinical research. Overall, I’m pretty quiet and love spending time alone but I can be very social and chat endlessly about something I find exciting.

Important: Couchsurfing is not Tinder. Please don’t be weird.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling, sharing experiences and learning more about different cultures (especially languages).

So far I feel like I have only seen the mainstream of the places I visit and that’s something I’d like to change through Couchsurfing experiences, hopefully getting to know more of the hidden gems with locals.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I wish I was born in the 50s, grew up in the 60s and had like 30 something in the 70s. That didn’t happen, but at least I’m a super 90s kid that loves Back to the Future and almost everything musical brewed in Seattle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I graduated when the pandemic was peaking and jumped straight into emergency rooms and COVID-19 wards. That was wild, still don’t know how I managed to handle everything but I’m glad I could help.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m a quite decent in the kitchen and love cooking black beans Brazilian style, maybe even a feijoada if we’re lucky to find all the ingredients.
If you’re not familiar with it yet, I’ll teach you how to perform Basic Life Support (BLS) so you can save lives too.
