Well what can I said, I was born and raised on a beautiful island in the middle of Atlantic ocean (Madeira, Portugal), but since very young age I felt the urge to explore the unknown, so that took me to Aveiro to study Biology.

Although I didn't traveled much, it's something that I love to do and I want to explore more and more. Whenever I went to the new places I was amazed by people, by the streets, by the buildings, by the landscapes, even though not everytime they were the most beautiful places in the world. I think each place has its authenticity.

I love that feeling when you arrive somewhere new, you are a stranger, it's so particular and unique and it disappears so fast, that's why I want to travel around, searching for that feeling and of course to meet people. I truly believe you learn more about yourself through the encounters that you do along the way.

I consider myself as a curious, social, kind, easy going person although I'm a bit anxious and stubborn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and meet new people. Discovering places through locals is the best way to know a place and it's culture.
