About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I don't know why, but I always have wanted to live in New York, on the 50th floor or something with a nice view to the city. It's just one of those things...

ABOUT ME

I'm 24 years now and study. I'm always interested in learning about the world, their culture and costumes, with a special interest in the Oriental Culture. I usually like to be helpful to other people and think that if someone helps just a little then the world will seem a better place... but perhaps that's just too optimistic =P I think it's better that I stop rambling...

PHILOSOPHY

If you fall seven times you should get up eight.

If you believe in something, don't ever give up, although it's important to stop for a while and ask yourself if you truly want that, and if you do, then keep at it. It's true you may not achieve it, but at least you know you have tried, which is more that a lot of people can say.

Enjoy life, treasure the good moments you have so you may remember them and smile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, a friend introduced me to this concept and I found it a bit weird, and was a little afraid, but since I like to help people, I thought "Why not?" and there was no answer from the other side of the brain... so here I am. I can't host because I still live with my parents, but I'll try to be available for a drink and to show some things around here.

Interests

Animation, cinema, music, visual art, manga (japanese comics), enjoy some time with my friends, playing video-games, taking a walk with some company and have a nice conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ok, so there are two movies that are awesome: Memento and Old Boy, there's also this tv show: Band Of Brothers.
I listen to instrumental music mostly, love the cowboy bebop and samurai champloo soundtrack, also enjoy some J-pop (that usually are from anime I watch).
I don't read many books, but I can name a book I loved: Memoirs of a Geisha and I have the Murakami's Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, which I started two times but never finished.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was little I saw my grandfather disassemble a watch, figuring out what was wrong with it and fixing it. It may not seem anything special but for a kid that was the most amazing thing in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

Never thought of this...
