Hi! Our names are Bernardo and Beatriz and we're interrailing this summer! :)

I (Bernardo) studied Literature and Beatriz studied Ceramics, and right now we both study Film in Lisbon, Portugal, which is where we live!

This July and August we'll be traveling through south and eastern Europe (mostly the Balkans), and we're looking for places to stay for a few nights while we explore these cities (Marseille, Venice, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Bucharest, Budapest and maybe, hopefully more!)

We're looking forward to this adventure and meeting cool places and people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We're looking to get a taste of the world!

Interests

What I love most in the world is reading, especially when I'm traveling! I also really like watching films, both alone and with my girlfriend, Beatriz!, and also with my friends!

We both like photography and the visual arts!

Beatriz is also very interested in Ceramics, which is what she studied before we met! She also studied Music and plays saxophone and violin, while I play the ukulele and guitar!
