Hey guys!

My name is Otávio Mayrink; I'm 25 years old, born and raised in Brazil. I love traveling, learning languages, and engaging with other cultures.

The more I use Couchsurfing, the more I like it! I guess it's a great idea to meet locals and make friends abroad.

Traveling is always exciting, and I'm not afraid to challenge myself. I enjoy biking and having meaningful conversations about anything, including life, politics, movies, philosophy, science, and whatever you can think about... :P

I'm very respectful, organized, and empathetic with other people, especially those from different backgrounds. I'm a reasonable observer and enjoy learning and sharing experiences with others.

I keep my things neat and clean while traveling.
I like animals. No food restrictions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like a challenge, I'm not afraid of taking risks, exploring new places, cultures and meeting new people and I think CouchSurfing is a great way to experience it!

Also, as I'm not a Russian oligarch or a billionaire (yet!), this platform suits my budget!
