Brazilian entrepreneur who loves to travel, to meet new people, to taste all types of beer and to listen to Brazilian popular music. Passioned for new cultures, different people, lifestyles and stories.

Another passion is education. I believe education is one of the most powerfull tools that can provide change and that there is a lot to improve in this area, specially in basic education and I wanna be part of this movement of change.

I also love entrepreneurship and its power to promote change. I used to work for big companies and decided to start my own 5 years ago and it was probably the best decision of my life. Nowadays I have started 5 different businesses and work with 60+ people combined for the 5 companies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and in the past 7 years I have visited almost 20 countries, including US, a lot of places in South America and Europe and a little bit of Africa. I also have been to more than 40 cities in Brazil, from south to north.

What really fascinates me is the amazing people and histories you get to know when you travel. I almost always stay in hostels and I have had a lot of amazing experiences meeting new people. I also stayed once in Germany in a guys house using Airbnb and it was awesome (now he is a great friend)!

Almost 3 years ago, I decided to leave my parents house and live alone. So now that I have my own apartment, I feel that I can meet a bunch of great people offering a place to host them in Brasilia and help these people have a nice experience here. I was also a guest twice and had two amazing experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When in Bolivia, I had the chance to do a downhill bike tour, in a road named the Death Road. You start your journey at 4700m and 0 degrees Celsius and by the end you achieve 1200m and you experience summer weather. The tour is the whole day long, you ride 63 km in your bike and you see one of the most beautifull scenes I have ever experienced.
