I'm a traveller, without a specific end point right now except for living well, helping whenever I can, learning and experiencing new places, things and people. I lived 30 years in Brazil, where I have done multiple things from having a software development company, creating a non profit organization, hacktivism, doing scientific research and studying in the university and working as an artist using computers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hosted and met already a lot of Couchsurfers in Brazil for years (but using an account that doesn't exist anymore). I never had a bad experience and met a lot of interesting persons, showing my old city (São Paulo) secrets as best as I could.
