ABOUT ME

born and raised in portugal...at the age of 20 decided i had to broaden my horizons so i left my beautiful country behind and moved to london...life has been a rollercoster since, a great journey full of great, and not so great, episodes...

PHILOSOPHY

such a cliche but such a great philosophy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

when i first moved to London i stayed at my brothers couch, and staying with someone that knew the city so well was a great introduction to it...

over the last few years i've had the opportunity of staying with many couchsurfers around Europe and Morocco whilst touring/travelling with my band and every experience was great.

have also hosted a many friends and travelers.

always had great experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

music: anything but crapy pop/r&b stuff...from blues to metal, hip-hop to jazz, reggae to balkan, rock to world music and fado...music for me doesnt have labels, only good & bad (according to my standards obviously =p)
movies: have watched so many good movies...big fan of european & south american cinema, independent american movies and even some of the big blockbusters...it also depends on the mood
books: crime, travelling, history and science-fiction

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching the sun rise in the pyrenees...amazing colours!

Travelling through India. What an amazing country! The epic train journeys. Playing cricket with kids in the middle of the country side.

Watching the stars in the dessert.

Touring around Europe, playing a different city every night.

Teach, Learn, Share

Travel! Meet new people, learn with life how to be a better person

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you some bass or guitar. and will also teach you the history of my adopted city, London.
