About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Feel free to have the best experiences the world can give me

ABOUT ME

I love people, of any culture. I have been to like 35 countries by now and each one of them was a rich and amazing experience, specially because people (they are much more important than places). Travel is my pleasure, I´m really addicted. I like to talk about any subjects, cooking, writing texts, look the stars on the beach, feel the rain drops falling over me, enjoy parties, drink beer and caipirinha, laugh with good friends...just a guy trying to be happy each day of his life, even because it passes very fast!

PHILOSOPHY

"If you never try, you´ll never know" - from the song "Fix You" by Coldplay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I meet people who are visiting Rio de Janeiro to show the spots of the city (specially the hidden ones!) and share nice moments together. I host and surf. Sometimes I also join parties and events with CS fellows.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted several people from countries like Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, Russia, France, Colombia, Switzerland, Azerbaijan, Estonia, Poland, China, South Korea, Venezuela and also people from Brazil. I surfed in Natal (Brazil), Bonito (Brazil) Valencia and Caracas (Venezuela), Willemstad (Curaçao), Riga (Latvia),Vilnius (Lithuania), Paris (France), Sofia (Bulgaria) and Strumica (Macedonia). I love the cultural exchange the CS offers to me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkeling in Curaçao - visit Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia - have a termal bath in Budapest - hike Christoffel Mountain in Curaçao - visit a medieval monastery in Macedonia - stay with an amazing family in Strumica, Macedonia - spend Ramazan in Istanbul and wake up with the calling for prayer in the mosques - be impressed with Iguazu Falls - take a ride in a pickup in a rainy night in Thailand.
