CURRENT MISSION

Traveling, discovering, becoming a better person, Startup Weekend

ABOUT ME

I just finished a World Tour and I'm no longer traveling. I want to host people now in order to give back to the community what I was given..

PHILOSOPHY

One day I realized that Entrepreneurship and Traveling were two passions.. So I created my own project mixing these two passions.. Today I'm trying to live out of them :)
Keep learning!

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Because I think traveling that way will give you a unique cultural experience.. I'm not a tourist, I'm a traveler!

My first CS was in 2014 in Brazil and I got hosted as a family member and a friend, it was amazing! Staying with locals is the best way, I believe, to truly experience a new culture!

I like to debate, share my stories and inspire & be inspired by others.
