About Me

I’m a curious future architect that loves graphic design, music, arts and museums. In the past, I used to work in an museum doing exhibition design projects in parallel with the architecture course.
After studying several years on an architecture course learning about urban design, new interactions created with the influence of buildings, spaces and people based on theories, there is nothing more important than to see it and experience by my own. I’m sure that the action of looking through the different cities, buildings, and histories would not only increase the critical level of my knowledge, but it would make me turn into a good professional and person. For this reason, after being approved in an exchange program that allowed me to be in a foreing country, I’ve decided to travel to new places and build my future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The couchsurfing would not only made me able to do this travels without spending too much money (and with that, allowing me to discover more places), but also would put me in contact with new people, making me discover how they live and also, having a knowledge and experience exchange.

Interests

Being an architect, I can say that I love to meet new places, buildings, museums, and landscapes. I enjoy spending times in galleries, and everything related to arts, graphic design and music. I can describe my music taste being an ecletic with emphasis on Indie Rock, Pop music, Rock and a lot of random bands. I’m also a person that loves knowing about pop culture, my guilty pleasure!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can say, for sure, that the things that I've enjoyed the most in my life were the music festivals that I've been, like SWU, Lollapalooza Brazil (for two years), and a huge number of small concerts. But as a traveler, I can point out skiing in Poland, seeing for the first time the Eiffel Tower (even sounding cliché for a non-european traveler), visiting the Jewish Museum in Berlin, La Sagrada Familia, Casa Batlló and La Pedrera in Barcelona and also the Fishermen's Bastian in Budapest

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a lot of traveller experience, since I'm traveling a lot here in Europe, and also, give a lot of tips about Brazil, where I live. And I also can share a lot of life experience, how is it to live in another coutry from the otherside of the world, our culture, food, and everything. I'm also a open-minded person to talk with and I really enjoy making new friends.
