PHILOSOPHY

Do or do not; there is no try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My girlfriend Fernanda (see friends) has been hosting surfers regularly since January. (My apartment is also my band's studio, hosting people here is not an option :S)

We're traveling to Europe this May/June and hoping to find some friendly hosts :D

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, we've had surfers from Brazil, Austria, Slovenia, Canada... am I forgetting anyone? :o

I usually help out by taking our esteemed guests around to see the finer things in Rio... usually to a bar or two, since we usually have free time only in the evening!

Interests

What am I NOT interested in? That would be a short list... But probably music before anything. Then: all sorts of science, philosophy (big on analytical, epistemology, latter Feyerabend), self-improvement, politics and urban planning, education, good food and drinks... Recently I've gotten interested on the practical side of sustainability, which leads to gardening...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So far: hang-gliding from the top of Pedra Bonita, in Rio de Janeiro...
