I'm a relaxed guy who just wants to go out there and discover new things day by day.
EDIT ON 17 February: I will start travelling around France with my jazz manouche project (www.facebook.com/lescdg) and on the end of March/beginning of April I will start to look for some work on the vineyards around Bourdeaux.

I want to see with my own eyes all the wonders (natural or man-made), I've only saw in my laptop screen or in the television.
I want to travel through the world but most of all, I want to see, talk, connect, get together with PEOPLE because above all, PEOPLE is what makes the world. Not the cars, the houses, money in bank accounts, all the material things people get attached to. No.

Find and get to know different cultures, play music to entertain and make people smile, be nice to everyone., enjoy life while we're here! Those are my lemmas.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To find beautiful people all over the world. To enjoy their presence and to keep me on track in my trips.

Centres d'intérêt

Music all the way. Been playing guitar for more than 10 years now and I want to do an hitch-hiking/touring trip along Europe and maybe even, enter Asia.
In my home town, I do some gigs under my solo project named John Curllin.
If you want to listen to some: http://johncurllin.bandcamp.com

Meanwhile I've created a new Jazz Manouche/Bossa nova travelling project with a French friend of mine: http://www.facebook.com/lescdg

I've also produced some electronic music and often work with sound on my computer. Some production on my own projects and so on..

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Music: Right now, a lot of gypsy jazz and other guitarists. Django Reinhardt, Angelo Debarre, Jimmy Rosenberg, Gonzalo Bergara, Tommy Emmanuel, Baden Powell and a few more..
Some rock (some mathematical and some rock and roll), blues (some delta and some fingerpicking folk) and some punk. Sometimes even some screamo and more heavy stuff. The classics also add a really good thing sometimes also.
Reggae, dub, a little bit of trance, electro swing, i mean, there is a lot to discover out there.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Snowboard on the Italian Alps seems to be the most amazing thing I've done. The connection with nature, the all white environment, the cold, the friends I was with, everything fitted perfectly. Stood up in a mountain of almost 2000m high. I know it doesnt seem like something great but for the first time and never being there, its something I will remember forever.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach music, some harmony and improvisation on guitar, guitar technique and a lot of things around guitar.
I can also teach Portuguese and English since, I'm pretty fluent on both of them.
I can share my personal visions of growing vegetables and living a sustainable off the grid life (a thing I'll try to do in the future).
