About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find my life passion.

ABOUT ME

"To define is to limit" and a self-description is never the best way to get people to know you. However... I am open-minded and always willing to hear other points of view. I believe you can always learn from the ones who think the completely opposite of yourself. I like getting to know new people, listen to their stories and sharing pieces of lives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment can't really host people, as I'm being a semi-permanent host myself, but would like to show people around and have surfed many different couches along the years.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have mainly been a host and all the experiences I had were amazing. The people I knew and the places I got to know through them are kept on my heart.

Interests

Photography. A good book, good music, a good film. To dance, to travel, the World, chocolate. Friendship, to laugh, to have a good conversation, those indescribable nights spent with friends or strangers. Theatre, ballet, all that is beauty. Being offered a book with a personal testimonial. The trees, the ocean, the rain, the beach, the night. Riding a bike through unknown lands. Rock climbing, the mountains. Yoga at dawn. The fire. To Live and feel alive.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I listen mostly to some sub-genres of metal: drone, sludge, stoner and doom metal. Heavy, dark, slow and profound. I like music that you can feel deep inside your belly and that touches you almost in a physical way as well as deep in your soul.

Books: George Orwell, Shakespeare, Milan Kundera, Franz Kafka, Oscar Wilde, Fernando Pessoa, Al Berto, Patrick Süskind...

Movies: Any film that hurts your brain, that makes you think and analyse life and what you're doing of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I find living an amazing thing to be done and everytime I share it with another like-minded soul it gets etched into my skin.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to rock climb and some basics of yoga. Handstands and scorpions and all arm balances are a big motivation in my practice, so I would love if you could help me out with them!
I can share with you the motive of the music I listen to. And I would love to improve my guitar skills or maybe any other local instrument.
I can teach you some Portuguese. I would love to learn other languages, with the emphasis now on French - and my eternal passion for Gaelic. Can you please teach me how to Irish dance? :)
