About Me

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ATTENTION HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SURFERS, READ THE FULL PROFILE; GENERIC REQUESTS WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY DECLINED.

CURRENT MISSION Find a new job (Japan, China, or UAE)

**** Priority to Portuguese/Brazilian, Japanese, and Chinese travelers, (I speak Chinese and I’m studying Japanese and Portuguese) ****

ABOUT ME I can describe myself as an outgoing, happy, active person. I enjoy traveling which might be one of the reasons I entered CS and also meet people from different countries. (it's extraordinary to know how different cultures do things).

PHILOSOPHY I believe in the idea that everything that happens is for a reason and enjoy the way things happen to be even though sometimes it's not what you want.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to give my hosts the best I can do for them, provide them with maps, tips, transportation cards, etc.. so they experience the city and enjoy themselves.

If I can not host, I'll always be happy to drink, eat, or party.

COUCHSURFING and others EXPERIENCE

in 2009, when I joined CS, I couched a Korean girl at my place, after 6 months of living with me, she became one of my best friends, and consider her part of my family.

in 2011 I worked also as an International Coordinator in Beijing.

In the summer of 2019, I biked Vietnam and Cambodia with my dad for over a month and a half.

BTW...Wanna learn Spanish for free???? Go to www.letspanish.com
