Hi all! I am a Brazilian student currently living for one year in Newcastle upon Tyne (England). I am still a travelling newbie (I have only done one big backpacking trip so far), but already got a few stories to share with you! :D

Unfortunately I live in a flat in Newcastle, so I cannot offer too much comfort for whoever needs a couch, but I am anyway willing to receive you if you're OK with that! From September I will also happily be receiving people at my home city of Curitiba - Brazil (and with more comfort too!).

Movies >>> Among favourite ones: Inglorious Bastards, Mr. Nobody, The Pianist, Interstellar, Inception, Dead Poets' Society, among others I don't remember right now.

BOOKS >>> Dan Brown (all books!), A Song of Ice and Fire, among others.
