About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Buy a couch! =)

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm new here, but I'm sure that couch surfing is much more fun than hotels and hostels... =) I like very much travelling abroad, and I even tried to find a profession in which I could live travelling. So... I didn't find it, and now I'm becoming an engineer =D.

Nowadays I'm living in France, due to an exchanging program between my university in Brazil and ISAE in Toulouse. There's a lot of erasmus here and I can see how cool it is to know people from everywhere in the world.

I've already been to many places in France, like Paris, Biarritz and Côte d'Azur. Outside of France, I've been to Spain, north of Italy, Sweden, Portugal and Switzerland.

I hope to meet as many people as I can during my stay in Europe, and make some friends to offer my couch in Rio next summer... ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Never run after something! Always run ahead! Run after is already to be loosing...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Travelling and meeting new people!

Also...
Just walking on the beach with the sun over your face warming you up in a 35ºC weather (that's Rio =P ) or...
floating on the water, or...
Reading a book (on the sand should be ok also), or...
Discussing things completely random, perhaps drinking a french wine, perhaps in a brazilian barbecue, or...
Simply going to the movies with a pleasant company.

I will forget the part about getting drunk in nightclubs and bars... ;)
