I am an adventurer. I am a twenty year old man who desires to live my life filled with passion. I was raised in New Jersey by two of the most amazing Brazilian parents. I live to love God, love others, and make memories.

I am currently majoring in Pastoral Ministry at Nyack College, located in New York. I work nearly two full-time jobs and go to school full time so that I can take this summer (2015) to travel across the country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Forty years from now my Grandkids are going to come up to me and ask me to tuck them into bed. Of course, I will happily oblige. After tucking in my grandkids they'll most likely ask for a bed time story. I must tell them a bed time story because after all I do plan on being the best grandfather the world has ever seen! At this point, I have two options. Option 1: "I grew up in New Jersey... Met your grandmother at Nyack College... We had your mother... We both got decent jobs to pay our bills..." By this point the kids are asleep. That to me is not success, it is failure! Option 2: "I lived and lived life to the fullest." I would then go on to tell countless tales that would inspire them to live life without limits.

That is why I'm on Couchsurfing, For the Grandkids.
