CURRENT MISSION

I wanna find the path with my heart

ABOUT ME

"Eu sou mil possíveis em mim. Não posso me resignar a querer apenas um deles." Roger Bastide
It is so hard to describe myself, I do not think I am just one person. I will try and say how I feel about me today.
I am very honest, open minded and easy going person. I love my family, friends and pets. I am kind and I try not to care so much about material things. I value simple things like talking to my friends and laughing.
I would like to throw my body in the world intensely, unfortunately I still have some ties and fears, but I am always working to be a better person and I am looking for my path.

PHILOSOPHY

When I read the Cortázar book Hopscotching I got lost, I was in a black tunnel and I could not see the exit. I did not believe in anything, I lost my faith, what a cruel world I thought. But then I realised I love to live. Don Juan, the shaman indian from Mexico (Carlos Castaneda wrote about him in the book The teachins of Don Juan - A Erva do Diabo) said every path is the same, it ends nowhere, we just have to go for a path if our heart is there. I am trying to live with my heart and it is not so easy to go against this system. I am being nice, it is a huge fight. But it is worthy.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wanna a better world, CS is for me a way to fortify relationships. I am here to make friends, learn different things and tell good things I know. I would like to know different places and cultures and even people who live in Niterói.
I can show my city and Rio de Janeiro for Couchsurfers. I am available for a coffe or a drink at night during week days. On weekends I am not so busy, so I can go out and enjoy the day. I like to host people, but I dont live alone, I have to ask my family.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We had a guest from England this year, he stayed 3 months at my place and it was a rich experience. But I did not meet him on couch surfing. I think this comunity is good to put together people with the same interests: change knowledge and cultures.
I met very nice people in the meeting of my city. My friend Paula hosted some couchsurfers and they are really good people with their big hearts.
