About Me
I am an Industrial Engineer and I like to hang out with friends after work and drink some beer. I really love having people at my house and I will rarely prefer being alone on weekends. You will probably get the taste of my barbecue (i love it)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I climbed the Roraima mountain at Venezuela to take some nice pictures, it took 8 days and something like 80km walking. I'm happy to be alive. Best trip.
Teach, Learn, Share
Downtown is a great place to go in daylight, we have beautiful buildings in all kinds of architecture - gothic, renaissance, modern, etc. Have a snack or beer on the Amazon theater square at night, and if you have some energy, go straight (5 min by foot) to Calderas traditional live samba bar - it has been listed as an historical site. And yes, it's a bar with live traditional music.
If you want amazonic adventure, it won't be difficult to find a touristic company that will help you out downtown - everyone loves the 3 night adventure in the woods. And please don't forget the traditional Tambaqui assado dish.
Manaus is almost a big city, has shopping centers and all the fancy things you have in every big city, but you can easily see Manaus in everything, it has a strong cultural identity.
We will be pleased to take you around the city and get you to know places most tourists don't know
What I Can Share with Hosts
Private host bedroom with one double bed and a fan (it's okay without air conditioner, as we live in the 16th floor). A full kitchen to use when needed, WiFi, television with lots of channels and a kick-ass varanda to chill. The sunset seen from the varanda is incredible.
