Hello! I am an adventurous, outgoing, passionate, silly when I can / serious when I should, open minded yet firm to my beliefs, Brasilian native! (Curitiba) so my first language is Portuguese, however i prefer English in some situations (like this one). Basically, i have a large story with a lot of turns and twists. Life has been one hell of a ride!... a damn good one though!! I grew up in Broward county, right over Miami-Dade county, and have lived in Tampa Bay FL, Newark NJ, Asheville NC, (yes i have survived in many of americas rough neighborhoods) and am currently in Lisboa. I traveled the states on the east coast of USA but i found alot of it to be the same and kind of bland. Also i found little opportunity for the life i am destined to have. SO, I came to Europe to wake up and break free from certain roots that tied me down. Portugal is my first step in a long life of traveling and gaining experience and most of all KNOWLEDGE to be wise, and later return to the states and teach all of my "blind" friends in the 'hood that life is SO much greater than just going downtown.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I came to Europe on a limb, i have been searching for a job and getting used to the environment here. However I am now low on cash and I need help with living accommodations. I will stay maximum of 5 weeks, more or less. no less than 2 weeks please.. just to raise money to be able to rent my own room.

Interests

I LOVE ART! any kind; video/photography, music, mathematical, physiological and paint/drawing. I am a poetic musician. yes, that means rap lol. But my music reflects my life and the experience i have been gaining since leaving my parents house at age 15. Therefore my lyrics are not the average "rap" lyrics that bafoons try to get away with. You will notice my humble advanced mindset. I love anything to do with exploring, whether a new city, a new person, or the great nature that we all share.
Drinks are ok with me, i love food! mostly vegetarian.. but i grew up eating meat and i dont mind it every now and then. And for some reason i like to build lol. anything.
