My name is João and I'm a 22-year-old Brazilian. I'm currently studying statistics in a countryside town near São Paulo, where I was born. I can speak English and try my luck with some slow speaking Spanish as a last resource. I enjoy travelling although I haven't been able to do much of it lately and I hope surfing can improve this.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To improve travelling. I first heard of couchsurfing from a family friend and after that my family started hosting from my mothers profile https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/cordanidantas
It was always very nice and we got a lot of different people coming to stay with us and now I want to get the other side of the experience.
When I travel I like to try the local stuff mostly, and meeting a local really helps with that, apart from also getting good conversations with interesting people.

Centres d'intérêt

I like to practice skateboarding and, when I can, snowboarding and watch any extreme sport. Also I enjoy playing pretty much any sport, even though I don't train much. I`m also in to movies and try watch a lot of them.
When travelling, I try going to local places and just experiencing the place in general.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I enjoy almost any kind of movies and I watch them a lot, especially Westerns and Sci-Fi. Some that I remember now are Memento, Reseroir Dogs, Birdman, John Wick...
I'm very open as to music, I`ll listen to anything.
I haven`t been reading much lately but some books that made a impression in me are The Solitaire Mystery, Admirable New World, Black Boy, The Doors of Perception, The Island, The Physician.
