I´m a 24-years-old student, first time traveler, looking for interesting places to discover and new people to meet. I´m a Portuguese native speaker and an English fluent. I´ve set as my language goals to learn as much as I can from other languages, aiming at French, German and Spanish. Come talk to me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From August 2015 to May 2016 I´ll be in US, as part of an exchange program, so I wanted to make the most of it, traveling in my spare time, as long as I had enough money for it. So, my options are restrict to buses and trains for locomotion, subway for sighseeing, and the most cheap option available for hosting.

Interests

I´m addicted to books, I really enjoy reading, when I´m not reading I´ll probably be listening to my fav playlist. As an engineering student, I´m also on tech, computers and learning, but I will let all these interests aside for a good conversation :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I´ve teached at a community preparation course in my country, there you must take a hard exam to get into university, so these students had no money to prepare themselves and got this for free. I was a chemical teacher by the time, but helped with math, physics and English.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play the guitar and the piano, both by ear, which means I´m not a high level music student, but an instinctively musician, if I can say so, so I could teach how to play some songs.
I know the basics about Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint, being able to teach how to do things faster and better, deppending on what.
I would like to learn all I could about Spanish, French and German.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have some stories about Brazil and some of my knowledge that I can and will be happy to share. I really enjoy talking and exchanging ideas and thoughts.
