ABOUT ME

I'm from Brazil, nowadays spending one year abroad in Aberdeen, Scotland, in a community of curative education for children and young adults. While I'm here I would like to visit as many places as possible spending as little money as I can, to have a real life experience. I think people who know me would say that I'm the typical brazilian: easy going and positive, always looking forward to the next joke.

PHILOSOPHY

You should respect other people in the same way you wish to be respected. I think this saying takes goodness beyond anything any religion or philosophy can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately, I don't have a couch available right now because I live in a community house and I share space with other workers and pupils. I would like, though, to travel around the UK & Europe in my free-time, whenever that's possible.

Interests

I really like video-games, but that's not exactly how I plan to spend my entire free time in Europe, hahaha. I like meeting new people and listening to their stories, talking about the various differences between places and cultures. I also really like photography, animals and any kind of new experience. I always say that I like to collect stories to tell to my grandchildren one day, hahaha.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like any kind of movie, actually. Regarding books, it depends a lot: I think any well-written book is worth reading. I'm kinda grumpy when it comes to music, though - mostly I enjoy rock-related styles and a little bit of reggae, most notably Bob Marley.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the only moment in my life where I thought things were going to change drastically was in the airport just before entering the plane to go to the UK, just after saying goodbye to my family and friends. For the first time I would be completely alone and independent for God-knows-how-many-years.
