About Me

CURRENT MISSION

As I travel and get to know people from all over the world I realize that there’s no better way to get to know myself than analyzing and comparing my own culture, life style, how I think and act with other people’s. And I love to be suprised

ABOUT ME

"Look: the most important and beautiful thing in the world is this: people are not always the same, they have not been finished yet - but they are always changing. Attune and untune. The biggest true. That's what life teached me. And that's what makes me trully happy!"

"Mire, veja: o mais importante e bonito, do mundo, é isto: que as pessoas não estão sempre iguais, ainda não foram terminadas - mas que elas vão sempre mudando. Afinam ou desafinam. Verdade maior. É o que a vida me ensinou. Isso que me alegra, montão..."

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice to the world, and the world will be nice to you! Don't ever be closed minded, don't pre-judge anyone, be open to changes. It's a good thing that people are different! When you get to know someone different than you, that makes you think about why you do that in a different way, makes you think about your own costumes, and that changes you inside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got to know about the CS from a frind I made in a hostel in Quebec City, that has been a couch surfer for the past couple years, and I got really excited about hosteling and visiting couch surfers everywhere!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All my CS experiences have been amazing! I got to know some really interesting and nice people, and I had a chance do host some too!

Interests

I love medicine, music, philosophy, photography, movies, hanging out with friends, travelling, going to parties, bars, having a good conversation, learning new things, listenning to good music, being in contact with nature. I want to become a child psychiatrist.
