I’m Luis. I’m originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil, but I’ve been living in Calgary for the past four years with my Canadian wife, Emily. She is going to Olds College in September for a period of one year and we are renting the guest bedroom for this reason. My friends would describe me as a compassionate, straightforward person who loves to chat and make people laugh. I’m industrious and creative, and a highly conscientious person. In my free time, I like to spend my time outside. I work out at the park next to our home almost every day. I also enjoy spending time with others and attending community events. On the weekends, I often head out to hike or rock climb. One of my favorite places to go to is the Ship and Anchor on 17th Ave for live music and a good pint of beer. I work at Barry’s YYC on 4th Street. I work pretty early, 5-12 in the morning. During the week, I’m usually in bed by 10:30 and up by 4:30. On the weekends, I’m usually asleep by 12 and up around 7. ‍ I’m a pretty social person, but I also need my alone time. I want my house to be a place where I can have people over, but not a place that’s constantly full of people. I’m open to the idea of my roommate hosting small gatherings - I would just like to know about these ahead of time. I occasionally host dinners for friends. We have a front yard haven with a barbecue and garden to receive our guests. Our apartment is newly renovated, private, naturally well-lit and secure. I like to keep common living spaces pretty clean, neat and organized. I’m open to the idea of a cleaning schedule to keep things organized.
