About Me

I am a newly graduated Mechanical Engineer and I am about to start my MScBA at TIAS Business School in Utrecht, Netherlands.
I've just arrived from Brazil, and it's the first time I use Couchsurfing!
I 'm very friendly, I love to meet new people from different nationalities, I love to make friends and to hang out with them. I am very calm and easy going.
I want to visit the cities around Utrecht before my classes start in September. I don't have any good references yet because it's really my first time here, but I'm sure you won't have problems with me in your house. :)
