Hi there! I'm Bea and I'm from Lisbon, Portugal, and I'm currently finnishing my college degree in management.
I'm a funny person that likes to travel, to go to the beach, to swim, to make friends, to be with my family and to experience new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently doing erasmus in the Czech Republic. This is something that I always wanted to do, and now that I'm doing it I realise that it opened my horizonts by making me more aware of the traditions and cultures of different people from all over the world.
I really like meeting new people, especialy if they are from a different country than me, because that way we have so much more to talk about and to learn from each other.
During this time, I've travelled a lot and I've met a lot of new places and people. Some of this people told me about couchsurfing and how it is such a good experience because you experience that country by acctually being in the house of a local that can help you to go to all the coolest places and with whom you can expecience habits and traditions different from your own culture. And this is exactly what I want to do!

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like music from the 70's and 80's, but I also enjoy a many current songs. My favourite kind of music is rock.
I also really enjoy seeing movies. My favourite kind of movies are comedy, thriller and biografy. Because I like to laugh, I like to be suprised and I love to learn.
My favourite kind of books is biografy. Some of my favourite books are SAPIENS, THE DEMON-HAUNTED WORLD and THE WILD SWANS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that the fact that I came to live in Czech Republic, a country very different from mine is the most amazing thing I've done, because it pushed me away from my comfort zone and made me get to know other cultures and lifestyles in first hand. And I think it also made me get to know my self better. It is indeed an amasing experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I really think that it is very important for everyone to have contact with people, culture and traditions that are different from theirs, because it makes us more patient, understanding and more cultured. I think it is very important to try to learn new things from everyone, because everyone and every experience will teach you something new, even if it is bad.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share with my hosts my experinces, which I belive will be nothing when compared to their's.
I am clean, polite and organized.
One bad caracteristic that I sometimes have is to not be so good with time.
