I'm 27 and studied Law, even though I don't plan to practice anytime soon.

I started to travel a couple of years ago—and then never went back. I pretend to know as many places as possible, but in a relatively profound way. I'm not interested in Facebook-tourism (traveling to some fashion city just to stay a couple of nights and have a few drinks and selfies). Instead, I want to know about local cultures (literature, music, movies...), their social, economic and political issues and their own idiosyncrasies.

My interests are reading, writing, taking photographs and listening to some music (I like mostly rock, blues, jazz and some classical). I enjoy watching films too—not blockbusters—though I'm not an expert whatsoever.

Oh! And I'm a little bit of a geek too—the sort of guy who is subscribed to Wired magazine.

I encourage you to see my photographic work:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I'd love to know about other cultures and other people's stories. Besides it's always good to save money on hosting, so I can spend on books, fun, more experience and knowledge!
