CURRENT MISSION Do the most of life, and not to fall in temptation (hehe)! ABOUT ME I was born in Brazil, moved around quite a lot in there with my family, than we all ended up in an island in the south (Florianopolis), that indeed made me realize, what was life about it. However, after a few years there, was not happy inside, decided to go a bit further, came to England, start travellin' everywhere and back to studies at uni (psychology), and somehow, although here in London, the outside is not that nice (no sun, sky always grey, ugly women!), I'm happy inside, funny that huh! So wanna keep on travelling and expanding. PHILOSOPHY As I realized that at the moment (actualy,maybe never), I can not avoid being part of the system. As a result, I try to live of it, but not, in it (if that makes any sense). To extract and take everything I can from it, as it is doing the same to me(and quite possibly,to you too)! Forget about all I said ..I grew out of this, now it's all about acceptance and compassion ;-)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've stayed in many couches before, around Europe and South America, although, mostly not through this website, was all in people's houses that I've met along the way. Was certainly better than hostel, as the level of interaction in much higher, the experience is more real.
Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Went hitch-hiking and asking for food, from de south of Brazil (Florianopolis), to the beginning of the Amazon Jungle (About 5000 kilometres)! Its amazing how there is yet a lot of good (simple) people out there, that help with no hesitation. I mentioned simple cause, in my experience, coincidently, the rich don't help (at all!) as much as simple people do, guess they have to much to lose huh! ;-P
