ABOUT ME

I am a travelling soul. 100% laidback: I can spend a night at the Ritz or in a tent with my backpack as a pillow. I LOVE food (I can cook some, too), a good local drink, and making friends in every corner of this world of ours. Weekends are usually best for me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live. No footnotes needed.

I'm triple-vaccinated and triple-boosted for COVID.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

GREAT TIPS TO BE A GREAT COUCHSURFER

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couching and surfing... and making friends all along. If I host YOU, I would love it if you returned the favor in your world spot. If you host ME; it'll be my genuine pleasure to do likewise.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined the CS community in April of 2013, but by then I had hosted (and been hosted by) local and international friends for several years already...

Interesses

I am an educator during the week, and a student of the world at any other time. CS keeps on ERASING my interest tags, so here it goes: coffee, food, beer, hiking, canyoning, exploring, camping, backcountry camping, mountains, rivers, Joshua Tree Nat'l, Valley of Fire, dolcefarniente, karaoke, Brazil, Italy, Germany

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

No favorites but rather an avid reader (mostly for academic pursuits), frequent music listener, and seldom moviegoer. Does karaoke belong in this section?

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

This one is the latest: I hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back on the same day. More insane than amazing, I guess --but STILL!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Teaching is my embraced profession, but learning is my passion.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

My stories, my food when I can cook, a good brew... and my friendship above all.
