About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be receptive and share experiences

ABOUT ME

I am Brazilian, Private Portuguese teacher and I've mostly taught overseas, in some countries I have been visiting and I am keeping on doing this now in Düsseldorf, Germany - that's where I am living now. I can describe myself a little cosmus person walking in this unfinished road to nice experiences and for me theres nothing better than being around nice people.I love meeting people randomly and meet them again, avoying the clichês, just being natural.I like going out and being stupid :) Go for a drink and dance. I am also a Carnival fan.And shortly i can say I am fascinated for Languages and Methods of Leaning Foreigner Languages and I have a special passion for Sports, specially Rugby.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is quite simple cuz i'm a very simple person. All my targets are all related by doing things I want but without bothering anybody.

I think ppl must love each other and be loved. Accept each other and be accepted. Respect each other and be respected.

"the first one now will later be last"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started joining CS after a met Tahnee Noakes, Aussie Couchsurfer and Beto Leonei, Carioca Couchsurfer, in Rio de Janeiro in 2007.

I got so curious about their experiences couchsurfing around the world that I started joining the meetings in Rio de Janeiro and in the Countries I have been.

An excellent tool for travellers who need/want good tips for travelling, travell safely, meet interesting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Many nice experiences by hosting and being hosted plus contacting people for random events and meetings in Brazil, England, South Africa, Holland and Germany and hopefully more to come!
