About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get the 'wonderful patience of the trail which comes to men who toil hard and suffer sore, and remain sweet of speech and kind'

ABOUT ME

I'm a practical, straightforward guy with broad interests. I'm proud of being patient and flexible. I like to talk about positive things which we can agree with and laugh together. In my trips, I walk a lot and look for good, authentic food. I also enjoy some good beer at night, especially if it's outside on a warm day, as it reminds me of life in Brazil. There, I learned to like sports, dance, books, beer and street, sun, beach, samba, soccer, carnaval...

As a guest, I am very respectful. If you like to hang out, it will be a pleasure discovering the town with you; otherwise, I am pretty independent, won't mind if you are too busy.

PHILOSOPHY

Live to give, love to get.

"If nothing saves us from death, at least love should save us from life" Neruda

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences were mostly hosting people. I have received lots of people in my town, not only through my profile, but also through my brother (http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/renanveguim/). I have little experience "surfing".
