Hello everyone!

I found this spider walking in my house...
I have no idea what it is, how/if dangerous it might be etc.

Any ideas?

This spider is in suborder Mygalomorphae, such as a trapdoor spider in genus Cyrtauchenius - http://www.biodiversidadvirtual.org/insectarium/Cyrtauchenius-walckenaeri-img85293.html
Your spider is a male that may have wandered from its burrow in search of a mate. These spiders are not dangerous to humans.
