I don´t like well defined things or labels. I see life as an ongoing experience and I try my best to be open to what it brings. I believe in the power of adventure, of the invisible things that bond well hearted people into making a difference.
I see myself as a free thinker and don´t like to be told what to do. Not very good with rules and timetables.
Feel in a lot of peace by the water and in nature.
I really like speed and sailing.
Have a lot of energy, some times is hard to rest.
I run my own business, a producing company of experimental films, exhibitions and videoart. I´ve worked on movie sets as assistant director and producer. I´ve assisted many artists and I have a lot of interest on contemporary art, I´m a learner at it, trying to hack it from its commercial existence.
Love technology, digital life, DIWO.
I like rituals as being with someone at a table to share a meal.
I was born around Carnaval time, I like to have fun and see it as a great way to know contemporary times, to live the present and provoke social changes, to find out other ways to communicate and to live together, specially in urban context.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe we must try other ways to interact, after all, there are other values we can live by.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Felt like I had became rain and melted in drops over a garden of daisies.

Teach, Learn, Share

I see myself as a constant learner.
I love to share knowledge and learn from another.
I see cultural exchange as a key for a better and powerful future to humanity.

What I Can Share with Hosts

When thinking about sharing it comes to my mind the word "Seva", which means 'together with'. I got to know this word through a friend that is a Sikh.

"Seva means service. In Sikhism, seva refers to selfless service for altruistic purposes on behalf of, and for the betterment of a Community. A sevadar is one who performs seva through philanthropic, voluntary, selfless, service. Seva is a means to promote humility and demote egoism which is a basic concept of the Sikh religion and is one of three fundamental principles of Sikhism."

The possibility to share is way to seek collective upliftment through an understanding of the needs of others and are based on togetherness and integration. An expression of compassion.

While Hosting I like to consider that I can share my house, meaning its actually build up space and all the love that I have put inside and also as all the things I know from heart - people, places, things, memories and feelings that are part of myself.
