PHILOSOPHY

"No fim, tudo dá certo. Se não deu, ainda não chegou ao fim." -- Fernando Sabino
Translation: "In the end, everything will be ok. If it's not ok, it's not yet the end."

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."--Margaret Mead

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy being a couch surfing host! I also appreciate being hosted when I need a place to stay.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been a guest just once, but have had several visitors to my home. The experience has been wonderful. Hospitality may lead to world peace!

Interests

My favorite thing to do is see good cinema. It is my form of worship. I love going to small film festivals and to the independent cinemas showing films that are not Hollywood blockbusters.
