CURRENT MISSION Work hard, play hard, sleep in between ABOUT ME Just like 110% of couchsurfers (if profiles are to be trusted), I am "easygoing", "openminded" and "love other cultures" but somewhat ironic. PHILOSOPHY That one can either expose oneself aggressively to the world or else suffer from acute alienation and spiritual atrophy.

Почему я на Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I'm unlikely to couchsurf myself anytime soon. But I have an idle place at home, in Copacabana near the beach, and I feel bound to have people over (see personal philosophy section) COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've hosted a few people. I have never surfed.
Музыка, кино и книги
Besides reading a lot about oil in Brazil (it's my job...), I am reading on and off Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand (I'm libertarian, I confess, but if you're progressive we can debate about it)
Одно удивительное, что я сделал
I've lived in Morocco for a year, as a cultural exchangee when I was 18. Fasted during Ramadan, tried to organize garbage pickers into a cooperative (and failed...) and learned moroccan arabic (nowadays a bit rusty).
Учить, учиться, делиться
Languages, love'em. Whatever I can tell about Brazil and Rio: politics, economy, anthropology and (off course) travel advice.
