About Me

Live and Learn

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and connect with people who have similar interests. I like to learn about everything!

Interests

I live in a big city, but I really love to be outside, in the mountains or in the woods. I'm vegetarian and I have a big interest in alternative sustainable living, including alternative politics and social justice. Oh, and I'm a big believer in science, evidence and facts.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love books and I read quite a lot, especially portuguese literature. I like old "heavy" literature (the russians!) and the "classics" (Orwell, Huxley, Thoreau, Bukowski), and I'm falling in love with some african authors, very down to earth. I hate cheesy books very "profound" full with clichés!

I love world music (give me anything from Mali - oh desert blues!) and that folk-balkan-gipsy-style. I also enjoy punk-ish stuff.

And I like european cinema better than (almost) anything fom hollywood.
