Hello! My name is Luiz Felipe, I am 28 years old, living in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
I am a biologist (taxonomist) and PhD student in Animal Biology. I am currently working with marine crustaceans and have been describing new species to science since my undergraduate course.
I am a very easygoing person, friendly, proactive and organized. I love to meet new people and know more about different cultures and experiences!
Besides biology, music is one of my passions and I've always been involved with it since I was a child. I love to play the guitar and bass, been part of maany bands and lately I started to try playing electronic music as a DJ.
I love cats, contact with nature, diving, camping, hiking and stuff related to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from all over the world, share experiences, practice different languages and all!

Music, Movies, and Books

I LOVE music and in general, I like to listen to brazilian music, rock/metal, reggae, classical, jazz, psytrance and techno. However, as a musician I am always looking for something new and different for my ears. Absolutely no restrictions for it, I could spend a lot of time listening to what you recommend me and vice-versa.
I enjoy watching TV series and nature documentaries. I am into Comedy or Sci-Fi/Horror/Thriller movies.
I like to read books that deal with themes like science, natural history, travels, evolution, zoology
