Overview
About Me
Hi! I'm a brazillian raised in a german city called Blumenau. I love traveling,
of course. Asia has a special place in my heart, and my biggest dream is to travel to Japan. I would like to be a Wwoofer someday, after finishing my graduation.
I consider myself as a relaxed and easygoing person, and a little shy at a first glance.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My goal is to visit as many places I can and make new friends. It's been already 4 years since I've traveled abroad, because of low budget. I think couchsurfing gives us the possibility of not giving up the dream of traveling, specially for people who don't have money to spend in a hotel or hostel (like me).
Interests
Books, drawing and letting art happen, photograph, videogames, traveling, knowing new places and people.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite books are Siddharta / Hermann Hesse; James Clavell's novels; Musashi / Eiji Yoshikawa; One Hundred Years of Solitude / Gabriel García Márquez; The Lord of The Rings / Tolkien.
Regarding movies, I think that Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain has a special place in my heart, and I also like Tarantino's movies, Little Nicky, Matrix, and lots of other I can't remember right now.
Well, regarding music, I'm very eclectic. What I'm mostly hearing right now is Bob Dylan, Stuck In The Sound, KoRn and Alt-J.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In my opinion amazing things are the ones we do in our everyday life, like helping our friends, family and strangers, by trying our best to make good things in the world.
Teach, Learn, Share
Helping with portuguese while I train my english/german (that are a little rusty - sorry). Books, experiences... well, I think that traveling has everything to do with sharing.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good experiences, laughter (although I'm shy, I'm also kinda of a clown), knowledge (I love to talk and learn about history and other cultures), and some good tips about Blumenau and Itajaí Valley.
Unfortunately at the moment I can't have any guests at home.
