About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Defeat the big boss and rescue the princess. But have fun in the process.

ABOUT ME

Hi. This is me. I'm the guy with the weird name in Brasil. My name is my curse, but I love it.

I'm a very easy going person. I never get very annoyed by anything or angry. I love to have a laugh, telling jokes and hearing them. I love to draw, even though I do it a lot lesser than I'd like to. I love cartoons, old ones and new ones (the good new ones), comics (specially the ones that actually end), movies (action, superhero, comedies, drama, weird stuff, horror, artsy... the whole lot) and videogames (creating some, actually). Yeah, I'm a bit of a geek. I drink, I don't smoke, I love good food and making nice sandwiches.

I am a Game Artist and Designer, and live making videogames with my company Double Dash Studios in Rio de Janeiro.

PHILOSOPHY

Just slip on a banana peel and the world's on your feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling even though I don't do it a lot. I feel that the best way to really know and enjoy a place is by getting to know the people there.
