ABOUT ME
Hi everyone! I'm Fernando, and lately with a hard time defining who I am. I live with my GF Catarina in Curitiba - a city whose we've chosen to live because of the green outdoor areas around, good weather, and fresh air. If we have free time, we would love to take you to explore the outdoor areas. Also, I have a remote job in the AI field for a US-based company, which sometimes i get too excited or bored. I have adhd but overall I'm very functional and have had to create my own 'system' to deal with normal life. I love outdoor activities and anything that stimulates my mind. Overall actually I like to be out of my confort zone since it makes me feel alive and in the moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe we grow as a person when we are outside our comfort zone and bubble. Couchsurfing is a way to meet people that we would usually not meet in usual circumstances.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- 1.5 years backpacking and volunteering in Europe with no defined route: https://www.polarsteps.com/FernandoWittmann/493469-eurotrip
- my one-year life experience in the United States;
- a 10 days vipassana meditation retreat with no connection with the outside, not allowed to speak, no taking notes, waking up at 4:30am everyday and veg food. Life changing!
