About Me

Hello there! I'm a grad student currently writing my thesis in media convergence.
Previously I've worked with cinema and TV, as a producer.
I live with my dog, the lovely Rita, in Rio de Janeiro. I enjoy spending time with my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a cool way to connect with people all around the world.

Interests

Mostly now it's been all about my thesis, so not so fun readings to mention.
But I've worked with cinema and TV and those contents are really my interest. From art documentaries to TV series, I've seen it all (or I try to).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Loki - Arnaldo Baptista
A documentary about a legend of Brazilian music that was ostracised until then. Arnaldo Baptista inspired names like Beck, Sean Lennon, Devendra Bahart, and was a great pleasure to see his name flourish again. The movie did super well in festivals and that was another pleasure.
But riding a elephant was pretty great as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always learning and sharing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a really great cooker that likes healthy food. Please try my moqueca de banana (a Brazilian tropical stew, with my twist).
