CURRENT MISSION

Understanding the particularities of people

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going and laid back gay guy who likes to meet people from all over the world and show them around in Sao Paulo. Everyone is welcome, irrespective of age, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.

PHILOSOPHY

- Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all!

- I know it doesn't sound very original, but nevertheless it's true: Treat others like you want to be treated yourself. We're not alone on this planet and it's amazing that with a very small gesture you can actually make someone's day! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend told me about the CS project. I joined the CS project to meet locals who can show me around and help me understand their countries better than I ever could as a tourist. Having met so many great people in Europe on a frequent basis I'm not a little bored being home again...so I thought why not host/meet up with surfers here! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS is the best thing that happened to me, a true life-changer. All these amazing people that came to my place have opened my eyes to new options. They showed me how easy it is to leave stuff behind and just hit the road and go where the heart tells you to. I have learnt that there is nothing one can't do; and all we have to decide is what to do with the time that's been given to us. CS is a way to give love, to connect hearts and minds, to unite people in struggle for common good, to enable one to live the change they want to see and make the world a better place. I'm excited to be a part of it.
