Overview
About Me
I'm open minded and want to learn about different perspectives, lifestyles, cultures, etc.
I'm a dog person, but love and respect every living beings.
I believe in bettering ourselves and continuously evolve as human beings and consciousnesses in this experience we call life.
I'm friendly, fun and open when comfortable with people but also I love my alone time. =)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
For the moment I'm staying in my beautiful hometown of Lagos, Portugal, and even though I'm not able to provide accommodation at this moment, I'm happy to give some tips on where to go and, depending on my schedule, meet up or show people around.
Interests
Well, is there much more to add? XD
I'm curious about the nature of reality and look to learn and grow everyday, raising my awareness and lighting up those around me.
Miracles are the natural order of things.
And its beautiful when you can see it.
I'd love to meet more people in this path.

Music, Movies, and Books
I've been into rock growing up, now I'm mostly into house, dance, trap and anything else you can feel happy and dance to! Also like some more chilled ones like Asura, and meditation/relaxing type (depending on the times).
Movies, I love psychological thrillers. Movies that make you think and surprise you at the end. Also smart comedy and certain fantasy/fiction, specially futuristic.
I read a lot - specially for research into my writing - but can't remember many specific titles! I've read a lot into history, specially the nazi era. It's very interesting seeing it from different perspectives: of a young jew, of a jew that managed to escape into Holand and was protected by christians and changes her worldview on religion, of a german woman stuck in berlim and fending for herself when the russians came along, from the perspective of an english woman stuck in france, paris when the germans start invading. How much it touches you, nearly feeling what they've must felt, the anguish, hope and dreams.
It makes you value life and simple comforts like having food, shelter and safety. Makes you understand humanity in their worst and best. In the end, we're not perfect and to expect such is an ilusion.
But kindness and respect are always around the corner.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Driven my 29 year old Ford Fiesta from Portugal to England
Driven it for almost 80 000km (for reference: 1 and a half times around Earths circumference) across 11 countries!
I've guided and gave strength to several people into making their dreams come true =D
I'm educating an amazing little being: my beautiful goddaughter, Melanie (4 years old)
I've learnt to love myself and be authentic!
Teach, Learn, Share
"Enjoy your freedom and respect others"
"Be the change you want to see in the world"
Passion and persistence are key!
Peace and Joy are the purpose to life. Don't settle for less. Be kinder to yourself. All will follow.
