My name is Catarina Silva and I'm a student in International Relations in Coimbra, a city in the center of Portugal, where there is one of the oldest universities in the world.
I've also studied in France for a couple of years, where I've met incredible people that thaugh me that traveling can be a way of living.
Currently, I'm living in Bogotá to complete an internship. After I finish this experience, I want to travel Colombia to get to know this amazing country, which has received me so well.
I'm passionate about everything that surrounds me and my only wish is to discover, to share and to help create a better and more human world.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I've decided to join Couchsusrfing because I think that traveling should be an authentic experience. I believe in hospitality, and that we all have things to learn from each other. I guess travelling is as good as the people you meet along the way.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I'm passionate about reading, writing, art and talking: everything that allows us to express ourselves and to communicate.
I always travel with a book from Fernando Pessoa, one of my favourite portuguese writers, and I'm always happy to share some of his poems with the people I meet.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

A couple of years ago I've drove all the way down the road that follows the sea in north Spain. I've slept in my car every night and I woke up every single morning with the see and the sun smiling right at me.
