Overview
About Me
What makes me happy is to meet and get to know other persons, to share stories, having a chat and a good time. There is always something to learn if one is willing to share an experience and all of us are carrying our parts of that big puzzle we call life.
Right now I'm working as a teacher in Brazil, but over the years I have been doing stuff in various places with people of different ages and cultural backgrounds. I think one may call me a fully globalized person (wich has its advantages as well as disadvantages).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I hate normal tourists.
Interests
music and literature are my passions. I usally use my free time to arrange and compose classical music and jazz as well as childrens songs. Recently I have been doing a lot of sports activities as well. I like running and slackling in particular.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went to Brazil
Teach, Learn, Share
I know the difference between major and minor and all that sweet musical ideas most people don't know nothing about. I can teach basics of the guitar, piano, flute, how to read notation and all that stuff. I think I could show you in general what it takes to become a great musician. Because most of the people just don't think about stuff as theory and technics.
Slacklining, yo!
Improvised vegan cooking that tastes good (yeah it's possible and very easy!)^^
Meditation (but don't let us get too esoterical, okay?)
I also can do Dreadlocks.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Beer, an open ear and the stuff I mentioned up there.

Israel, Spain
