I had my first experience abroad when I lived in the United States for 4 months during my vacation from college. To support myself I worked on Wendys, Dunkin Donuts, and even delivered flyers on the street for a fried chicken store. During that time I got to meet immigrants from many countries and experience a very different way of living. That experience expanded my worldview and instilled in me a love for traveling.

I'm an easy-going, good-natured and open-minded guy. I try to approach any conversation with an open mind and love when someone shows me a different perspective.

I used to be quite shy and reserved, but I'm changing that. This year I've allowed myself to have new experiences, meet new people and it has been the best moment of my life. In the process, I quit my job and went backpacking in Europe solo, for two months, and couchsurfing. After I came back to Brazil I decided I want to live in Europe and currently I'm preparing to move to Berlin for a job.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I believe Couchsurfing is a great way to meet interesting people, share ideas and experiences. I have found that it's much easier to connect to other couchsurfers than people from hostels, for example.

I had great hosts on my last trip, but now I'm preferring the flexibility of staying in hostels and meeting people through CS. Let me know if you think we have something in common and want to hang out!
