I am currently an exchange student in Germany from Brazil. I was born in a small city and I am a lover of small cities' slow life, but I really like to break the routine, travel and do something different every once in a while.
The qualities that drive myself: Curiosity, Sincerity and Calmness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing for new experiences! I really like to meet new people, specially from very different cultures, to share life events and see how dynamic, different and beautiful the world and their people is!

Interests

I have interests in many things, specially stuff I do not know about! Subjects that always get my interest with more intensity are:
- Culture and tradition from different places;
- "Causos": Comical stories that happened with yourself;
- Good movies, especially noir. I prefer a nice script over special effects;
- Religion and economy;
- Comic books, not just the super hero type though, Maus, the Boxer and many others are there to prove this medium is awesome;
- Musical Instruments, in spite of not playing any (but trying out the harmonica!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Staying away from home too soon, in my opinion. Since 14 years old I study away from home and because of that I learned a lot about responsibilities and the importance of real friendships as a family to help and be helped, but I also had to sacrifice my naivety and a little of my recklessness for that. Looking back, I would not change this choice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Technology stuff, pop culture, movies, comics, swimming!

Always willing to learn something new!
