Para brasileiros: não hospedo, desculpa. Boa viagem! I'm a builder. I spent the last decade or so starting and running tech companies in Brazil, and these days I run a small holding company with a few products I care about. Most of my time goes into shipping things, talking to clients, and making stuff that didn't exist yesterday exist tomorrow. The other half of my life is physical — jiu-jitsu, lifting, running. Discipline is the engine that keeps everything else moving, and I think a lot about how to live well: stoicism on weekdays, YOLO on weekends. Live fully, but choose wisely what's worth your time. I travel a lot, for work and for fun, and the best memories almost never come from the tourist stuff — they come from the people you meet along the way. That's what Couchsurfing always got right, and why I'm still here. I live in a penthouse in Lourdes with two Dalmatians, Lua and Django. They're part of the package. Lua barks at first — she doesn't bite, just takes a little while to warm up, then she's the sweetest thing. Both of them will probably like you more than they like me by day two. Easy-going, open-minded, and a firm believer that good energy comes back. Check my references. One thing before you send a request: please don't reach out just because you're coming to Belo Horizonte for a conference, lecture, trade show, concert or party. Send me a request if you have a story worth sharing over a beer — like crossing Brazil on a motorcycle, or whatever your version of that is.
