Please, write me a reference in English because of foreign people. Please, if you accept my request with "yes" or "maybe" just to get free months on CS and then never respond again, don't do it because I will inform CS that you didn't host me and disappeared.

Is it just me, or you hate new Couchsurfing website? My God, what happened? ... I was raised in a huge family where anyone was welcome to stay for supper and sleep over. This made me just love meeting people and making new friends all around the world. I also lived with a french girl that is now one of the most interesting human beings I have ever known . At Unicamp (university of Campinas) we usually get along with people all around the world . At home, I try my best for people get comfortable, fed (rss) and cozy. I also encourage people to talk about various subjects with me and my friends. I REALLY love animals, nature and the nightsky. ABOUT ME Tento sempre ver o lado bom das coisas/pessoas/situações but... ***IMPORTANT!*** ***Couchsurfing IS NOT Tinder***!!! If you read my profile til here,then we can begin to talk. Please, put on the subject of your request/message #forgetaboutthepricetag. Barao Geraldo é um distrito de Campinas, que fica a 36km do aeroporto. Portanto, se você quer um couch para ficar por 3 ou 4 horas até sair o teu voo, meu couch nao é uma boa opçao, pois fica longe e voce corre um risco grande de perder o seu voo. PHILOSOPHY "A vida virtuosa é aquela inspirada pelo amor e guiada pelo conhecimento" (Bertrand Russel)

Um resumo do que desejo na vida ⤵️ Por onde passar mostre o seu melhor sorriso... Deixe somente pegadas... Tire somente fotografias... Leve somente lembranças... Ajude, recicle, economize... Espalhe paz entre os homens...

About Me Hi! I'm André, a 36-year-old from Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil. I work as an executive mentor and business strategist, but my roots are in physical education and sports fitness. This background gave me a lifelong passion for high performance and health. I’m a huge tennis player, hit the gym regularly, and absolutely love traveling. My recent adventures took me to Japan, California, and Africa, and I have an upcoming trip to Amsterdam and Lisbon! I’m a straightforward, easygoing guy who appreciates minimalism, great conversations, and respecting other people's space. Why I'm on Couchsurfing I’m looking for authentic connections and real cultural exchange. For me, traveling is way more than just taking pictures at famous landmarks—it’s about understanding how locals live, think, and see the world. I really enjoy stepping out of my daily corporate routine to share experiences and have genuine, open-minded conversations with people from all over the globe. Interests * Tennis: Playing, following the tournaments, and geeking out on match tactics. * Fitness & Health: Weightlifting, routine optimization, and staying active. * Travel: Road trips, international adventures, and exploring new cultures. * Design & Business: Minimalist aesthetics, business strategy, and personal growth. What I Can Share with Hosts I’m always happy to exchange ideas about building businesses, optimizing daily routines (both mental and physical), and swapping travel stories. I really enjoy deep, meaningful conversations about lifestyle. Also, if you play tennis, I’m always up for a match! In return, I’d love to learn about your culture, your perspective on life, and get to know the authentic, everyday side of your city.

Oii, sou a Gabi! :) Sou portuguesa e estou a viajar de forma económica pelo Brasil com o objetivo de contactar com a imensa diversidade cultural, espiritual, gastronómica e social que o Brasil oferece!
