Hi, I'm Marco. How are you?
(Note: English is not my first language, sorry for my mistakes)
I'm a good samaritan living since in a small brazilian city (about 50k habitants) near to Sao Paulo (one and a half hours ~ 150 km) dreaming about the world and asking myself "what am I doing in my life?". haha, who isn't?
Winter 2015 I left my job and decide to change somethings in my life as my habits, desire, fellings and confort zone, so I decide to live to the world instead on the world.
So here I'm.
What makes sense in my life actually is to live a life less materialistic, what makes me decide to invest a life with experience instead of things.
As a good brazilian I'm passionate about soccer (São Paulo FC) - as fan and player - and all kind of sports to improve your lifestyle (adventures is the greatest one); music; culture; languages and video games.
I love morning with coffee and books to appreciate the daylight, especially in Winter.
From time to time I'm planning some trip to connect myself with Nature, camping and ecologic walking + dives in lakes makes me fell better instantanilly, but I can't resist a period as cosmopolitan...
I love to talk about the life, world, experiences and hear about people and their experiences around this blue bubble. So, let's talk!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to connect with people around the world, to discover more about the world and myself.
As I'm planning some trips around the world I'm looking for opportunities to colide with people "Doors Open For World" (DOFoW)
We are the first generation using this amazing tool called Internet and this must be used in order to improve our lives as human being shared the same place and planet.
Happiness is only real when shared.
