Olá! :D
My name is Beatriz or Bea, I'm 20 and I'm taking a degree in occupational therapy.
I always loved to travel. So much that more and more I consider doing it full-time. At the moment I'm living in Finland for one semester as an Erasmus exchange student. I'll be back to Portugal in June.
I'm a positive person who enjoys the little aspects of life. My favourite thing to do is to have a good laugh and eat good food with friends and family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While in Erasmus I met people from all around the world. This people shared the same love as me: traveling. Other aspect we had in common was lack of money. Still we belive that traveling as students is still possible and that's when couchsurfing come up. My friends had already tried it and shared their experiences with me. I was instantly excited about the concept.

I also love to share my culture and I'm a really proud girl of Portugal's heritage. I would also be available to accept guests at home and share my knowledge with you, in exchange of moments of sharing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going abroad on Erasmus. It as been the most fascinating and richest experience I have ever experienced. Where I met a people from all around the world who shared their cultures, habits, personalities, foods and experiences with me. Where I dared my self to do new and challenging things everyday. I'm leaving my Erasmus experience to the fullest and I'm aware of how much I've personally gained from this experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Detailed descriptions of my own experiences, traditional food from Portugal (with a vegetarian twist), more or less in tune ukulele songs, Disney songs a capella, company and happiness!
