CURRENT MISSION

update this profile and get back on hosting here in São Paulo - already did it with the home information, but all the rest I wrote in 2012

ABOUT ME

An university student, a left-view activist, a confident guy always trying to do a little bit of everything – and who knows, perhaps making a difference. Just finished an 8 months erasmus period in Barcelona, and currently I am studying international relations, but there are pretty much the same odds that we meet at a film festival, an insane party or a model UN.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in been truely interested in what's beyond my own personal private limited needs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Started by surfing, then joining and organizing events, after hosting the few lucky ones that made it all the way to Brasília and quite a few coffee or drink with the ones looking for a different experience out of Barcelona.
