Brazilian law student in Paris

Usually, I hate classifications, but happen to find the 16 personalities a very nice shot, according to which I'd be ENFJ (and I really am ;P).

I am proud to bring the latinity of my country with me, being very affectionate, caring, outgoing and receptive. I love reading philosophy, psychoanalysis and classic romances. I am crazy about Model United Nations, moot courts and debating contests. I prefer mojitos over champagne (I know, should change this), especially if it involves jazz or bossa nova and a great meaningful philosophical conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

looking for interesting people to discuss, to discover, to tell what I know and what I like, to be presented to new authors and things, to share my enthusiasm. It's lovely to flaner in a city with someone whose willingness of knowledge and amusement is as big as ours.
