I'm a Designer living in Brasília, Brazil

Born in Pernambuco, lived my first years in Manchester, Moved back to Brazil, Lived a year in New York studying at Parsons (Thank you Science Without Borders :) )

I continually study illustration and the management side of an animation studio. Recently finished a hardcore entrepreneur course (EMPRETEC) and looking forward to apply its lessons.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I haven't had any experience couch surfing yet, it was greatly recommended by a few friends travelling abroad.

During all my years living outside Brazil, I have always pursued making international friends. Couch surfing to me seems like the most sociable way of getting acquainted with people from different countries and states.
