By day I work for a biotech company in silicon valley. By night, I'm Batman!

PHILOSOPHY

"I found myself standing in front of a mirror and I stared into the eyes of an invisible man until my pupils became pupils, and I could teach myself to live a better life"

The words of a wise poet, Shihan the Prototype :)

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's always positive. I've met a few, but amazing people.
