***** JUST MOVED TO NEW PLACE - BACK TO CS HOSTING *****

CURRENT MISSION
To learn about myself while exploring the world!

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm a very active person, Love to make friends and learn about new cultures. I'm anxious to travel all around the world. My first step was in 2007 carnival, when I spend a week traveling in Europe.
I like to read, learn new languages ( Actually I'm studying German) and meet my friends.
I try to do something exciting everyday and I wonder a lot about everything!
Ah Also I'm always in good mood and I have a Ironic and sarcastic sense of humor.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is:
Life is do it!
I'm always interested in meet new people and know more about the world. I think that we understand the life through experience exchange.
To me every person is a world to be discovered.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm able to host but please contact me one week in advance. I like to participate by offering my couch to surfers and I try to make my guests to fall in love with my town. In the future I would like to help spreading the ideas of couch surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch experience was twenty+ years ago in a friend couch. In the meantime I had the opportunity to show parts of Rio to visitors.
My first experience through CS was in June/09 in Hamburg, Germany. A couple hosted me (Ted and Julia) and I think that it so perfect that I couldn't expect more. Also I had the opportunity to be surf in Berlin, Poznan (Poland) and also I'll never forget the München group!
My first guest was Katie from US and I'm glad she enjoyed Rio. Hosting someone made me understand better how is like to be a guest by someone.
So far I hosted twelve surfers, which I hadn't many problems and I'm glad of my "photo wall" with my guests (see my photos).
