About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Culture Exchange by traveling and knowing people from other countries

ABOUT ME

I don't think there's a right definition to describe someone, even when we do need to do it so other people may know you. The thing is that I'm quite funny, but not the silly type of funny guy. I like knowing places, people and way of life's and that's exactly why I'm here. I like to talk, hear all can be said about a place, about how people live there and everything you might think important to say about such a place. Well, I like going out by night to drink and get to know people, like to watch movies (actually I just LOVE to watch movies) and like reading too. The more you read, the more you improve your culture, your power to know something. About the way I am?Well I'm intense, true, funny (serious I don't like being closed or upset)and I take my chances, because we have only one life. Like I saw on a movie once: "Life is simple: you make choices and you don't look back."

PHILOSOPHY

"Quod in omni vita facimus, in aeternum resonant." that means: 'What we do in life, echoes in eternity.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I feel like if I belong everywhere and like if I had to know everything, everyone, everywhere. Just because you were born in a place doesn't mean you must live your whole life there. Actually you must know as much places/people/life style as you can, otherwise how would you be able to say what you like or what you don't like?That's how I participate: you want to know how do we live here? I can show you, for sure, and I hope someday you can show me how people live where you are from or where you live at at the current moment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've Started this CouchSurfing thing few years ago when I was planning my vacation in Estonia and I was facing some issues to find a hostel, and now I want to receive people from all over the world or just hang out.

Interests

It's kind of relevant to mention that I like to experience new things, so I won't never do the same things all the time. Life's simple, short and quick so I think we cannot spend our life doing exactly the same things again and again, that's why I like to know people from all over the world and I like to know (by knowing people, reading and watching movies or even traveling) other places.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, usually I like eletronic, hip-hop, pop and rock music,but I'm up to anything that can shake our bodies.
About books, just give me something in a language I can understand and I will like it, serious. Love reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are a few, but when I turned 21 I packed my stuff and got on a plane. I started a 2 years journey traveling all over the world. It was awesome. Want to know more? Ask me. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to know particular things about places like it's typical food, drinks, music, things to be done on free time, etc.
What can I teach?Well, I'm always a positive guy so I can teach you how to see the brightside of almost everything.
