About Me

I used to study and work with film and advertising, when years ago I took a radical turn in my life by gong back to university, now I'm finishing my degree in economics and giving my first steps in the business.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I find it really smart in several ways. Being someone that loves to travel, the possibility of staying in local peoples's places, and experience their real way of live is priceless, the amount of culture and exchange is awesome, and all without spending a lot of money.

Interests

I love movies, design, architecture, cooking and literature. And I also love practicing sports, my favourites being rugby, wakeboarding, football and american football.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving, definitely a life changing experience

Teach, Learn, Share

"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart."

Nelson Mandela said this and since I've first read this, it has been the motto of my live. As a fierce lover of new cultures and foreign languages I love traveling and being around the most different people I can find, for me, that's the best way of learning about the world and absorbing all it can offer to you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Two extremely comfortables sofa beds, a absurdly good shower (I'm not joking) and for the coffee lover delicious cups of Italian expressos. All in a very central and well located 53m2 (570ft2)studio apartment in São Paulo.

Also (depending on my schedule and how cool you are), I would love to cook you some meals and show a little bit of what I know of the city and its attractions, as well as exchanging ideas and experiences.
