Oi!

Brazilian, medical student, love having a beer and a laugh. A great pleasure to travel and photograph. My thing is being to places where I feel I've landed on another planet, as I quite enjoy interacting with people even if we cannot exchange words. Most of my life I've lived in a city at the corner of Brazil, a sunny place where paradisiac beaches lie and easygoing people get around. I also had an unforgettable time living in Liverpool for a year as an exchange student. I put some of my photos on Instagram (@agbmedeiros).
Always riding for the feeling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of meeting local people, getting to know them and their lives (I used to couchsurf a lot during my exchange in the UK).

Surviving a trip to Iceland without a coat!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a little bit about medicine and portuguese, how to cook brigadeiro and handle a camera. Oh, for sure we can also have some tipsy insights on politics or philosophy (thumbs up optimistic nihilism) or anything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share enjoyable moments, have fun, I can talk to you a little bit more about Brazil and how stuff works here. My apartment doors are wide open in Natal anyway!
