ABOUT ME

Nuno and Patricia and since Sep 2013 our newborn Miguel. ( Nuno manages the profile) We both are easygoing and love to travel and to meet new people, new tastes, new places and love to see how the others live!We love snow but also the Beach.We we are in airports we feel it is our natural Habitat, we usually say that if we win the lottery we would travel non stop for one year.
We love home meals (true, just ask our surfers ), so if we surf with you we might cook something!
We live in a relatively small country on the west tip of Europe, so traveling for us is a way of widening my horizons! It is also when we can practice our English which is starting to get rusted!
Been to a lot of hostels that promise cultural interaction with other travelers, and then they are just a place where you go to sleep,without even a common area, but we want to interact, talk, laugh and what is better than knowing a place with the precious help of a local!

PHILOSOPHY

make this man's words my own "For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move."

* Robert Louis Stevenson

These words belong to a CS friend of mine, but I make them my own :
If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home.

Interests

I like to travel ( of course, who doesn't ) I like to jog on the beach or on the woods( although every time i go out to jog my mind tells me I was better off in the couch or at the pub drinking a beer, but in the end I always fell like a new man) ,watch movies, spend time with family.
Love to collect hats ( like baseball hats ) with the flag or name of a different country.
