first of all, sorry for not being able to host at the moment. i'm sharing an apartment with three other people.
but if you're hitting madrid, let me know. i can at least share some tips. but maybe we can meet up and i'll show you a bit of the city.

CURRENT MISSION
rock and roll. at work, at home. or wherever.

ABOUT ME
originally from lisbon, portugal; i was a londoner for 6 years and am currently living in madrid, spain.

music rules a lot of my life. and festivals... i wish i could live in a permanent festival. or festival monday to friday, work on weekends.
i collect gigs and have seen sick-loads of live music. name a band. i probably saw them.

i'm a girl version of peter pan and will never grow up.
childish? i collect toys, create extremely primitive, short animation films with my camera, daydream, etc. and my job is to watch cartoons. for real.

i read some books but sometimes prefer (DECENT) newspapers and magazines.
like to walk for hours when it's not raining or cold.

alice is a big influence too. so is pinocchio.
i was trying to decide what i wanted to do when i grow up when i realized that i won't grow up. so no more 'deciding'.

PHILOSOPHY

gonzo + rock and roll

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
once i was going to berlin with a friend. she said 'forget the hostel, let's couch surf'. here i am again. if not hosting, showing you hidden treasures from where i live. the rest you can find in guidebooks. you're coming for a gig? maybe i'll join you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
my first experience was also our host first time. i think couch-surfing is many good things in one but above all a weird-in-a-funny-good-way to meet new people.
