About Me

I'm an easy going and open minded guy travelling from September to December/16 while working as remote freelancer in Marketing and Communications.

Super chill, tidy and organized, non-smoker and no food restrictions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am travelling to the UK and Eastern Europe for 3 months. My goal is to meet new people along the way and learn a bit about the cities (and life) from their perspective.

Interests

-Good music in general. Preferences for Brazilian MPB, jazz, hip hop, chill electronics, and rock. (I try to play some of that in the guitar)

-Movies and TV Series that make you think and/or laugh. From Paris, Texas to Superbad, from House of Cards to Arrested Development.

-Modern/Contemporary Art.

-Podcasts (NPR, Gimlet).

-Social innovation and ideas that work to make the world a bit better.

And discussing all of the above while having a beer on the side!
