I'm a Brazilian guy interested in practicing English, learning new languages, meeting new people and making new friends.

Love people that laugh with me.

No smoke. Drink (just a bit).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met some people in the CS community through English conversation meetings. I'm here to meet new people, make friends and share experiences with natives and foreigners.

Interests

Here they are (not necessarily in any order):
Sports, foreign languages, music, dancing, movies, landscapes, puzzles/jigsaws for fun and framing, pizza (just to eat, I can't cook), travelling, go for a walk in new places, writing, videogames, computer networks (my new area of work).

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Jason Bourne Trilogy, Batman Triology (from Christopher Nolan), Inception, Red Cliff, Samurai Champloo (anime), Blood Diamond, Immortal Beloved, Star Trek, Butterfly Effect (just the first movie), Behind Enemy Lines.

TV Shows: How I Met Your Mother, Person of Interest, The Big Bang Theory, Band of Brothers, Doctor Who, Suits, Early Edition.

Books: Um otimista incorrigível (Always Looking Up) from Michael J. Fox, Várias Histórias from Machado de Assis (Brazilian writer), Um antropólogo em Marte (An anthropologist on Mars: Seven paradoxal tales) from Oliver Sacks; most of the rest are IT technical books.

Music: almost anything, I think. Just present me with something, give me some time and then I say if I like it or not.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started taking forró classes!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've studied classical music and have also played violin in a church's orchestra for a short time. I can teach some basic stuff about musical theory necessary to learn an instrument.

I'm willing to teach my language (Portuguese) for anyone who wants to learn it.

I've taken some dance classes of forró and, if you want to know what it is, I can share what I know with you.

Maybe some tips of computer networks.
