About Me

I'm a student from Montreal. I've been living here for the past 10 years or so. Before immigrating, I was back in Brazil.

Currently, I'm a law student at Université de Montréal. Wherever I go, I (try to) check out the law, the trial courts, and how they work.

I do fun things too: I have done a quite a few plays during my school and university years. I'm very much into books and poems. I particularly like going to festivals and other city-events here in Montreal. We have a lot of those.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's been a while I've been telling myself I would get in the couchsurfing train. The time has come and here I am.

Interests

Learning languages is a big one. I've been reading a lot lately, along with Netflix binge-watching, playing tennis, discovering new music (still looking for good italian bands...), and all that stuff.

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages! Specially if you like grammar :) and if that's not your thing, I can always explain the Canadian legal system!
Similarly, I really like understanding other systems. Be it a different grammar system, the political situation, etc.
