ABOUT ME

I like to see myself as a citizen of the world, a pro-active person, specially regarding youth volunteer work. I was AIESECer and an ESNer for several years. I like to meet new people from all around the world and I travel every time I can. I consider impossible to know some city or country if I don't know the people living there.
I am a PhD in Civil Engineer, converted to software engineering and my current job mixes both engineering.

PHILOSOPHY

Global vision.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted whenever I could friends of friends at my place in Porto, Braga, Singapore and Lisbon, depending where I was living. As a ESN buddy, I spent a lot of good days showing the city and helping new Erasmus students with the daily problems, either in Porto, in Guimaraes and in Braga.

Currently is hard to host people, but I'm happy to show around and help tourists feeling a bit more of the local way to live.

Interests

I like to practice almost every kind of sports.
Listen to music all the time.
Read when I am relaxed.
Go out with friends and to known new and different people.
