About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to get "retired" so that I can travel more and know more.

ABOUT ME

All?! The only thing I can say is that I am a curious cat and need to know everything about everything; why people do what they do, how history repeats itself over and over again and nobody sees it! New ways of breakthrough thinking and the rest I leave it for the wine, great food and single malt!

Want to know, travel and meet more and more people in this short lifetime spam.

PHILOSOPHY

Be reasonable - Balance is everything (cliche I know but incredibly true)

It is better a harsh heart pain now than one that drags itself forever

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can meet up with anyone on the neighborhood, exchange ideas, thoughts and evolve - always evolve and make others grow!

If you need any help when you will be or going to be in Portugal/Poland/Spain/Netherlands/Swiss/Brazil let me know, I can always help!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experience is short up until now but on the short term will become bigger and bigger...I have to feed this travelling animal constantly

Interests

Meeting new ways of thinking (no matter the circle they come from)
I do love sports (any kind of sports really)
Reading/movies/trekking and travelling are my main hobbies besides sports.
Walks on the beach of Santo Amaro de Oeiras by night.
Austrian ice creams in the Summer.
Cliff diving

Movies: Shawshank redemption, Hannibal,Abre los Ojos, Lord of the rings (all 3). All movies with Christian Bale and Johny.

Music: any kind of music (really)

As for books...everything from Fiodor Dostoievski, Isabel Allende, Charles Baudelaire, Sartre, Erasmus of Rotterdam, Emanuelle Kant (I know everybody hates him but he had pretty interesting ideas!), Zigmund as well!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The premise is SEEN/tasted or done:
Sunset in Sarajevo.
Road trip from Sarajevo to Dubrovnik (the most beautiful sights in the WHOLE EUROPE - Anyone from outside Europe MUST do this bus ride).
Suburbs of Kyiv & Belgrade.
Polish friends..
Wine of Italia
Olive Oil of Greece and Portugal.
Lisboa by night towards the bridge 25 de Abril.
Caucasus mountains
Jordania: Wadi Rum & Petra which is even MORE impressive than what people say...Amman food and people!

Teach, Learn, Share

So many things in this life to learn...

I want to learn russian and japanese and improve german...So if anybody can help me with the last 3 languages I would be eternally grateful!

I want to learn how to fly a small plane. If it could be a water plane it would be even better.

I want to becoming a pro in dancing salsa and samba.
I am open to learn anything useful in life nowadays!

As for teaching...hmm I can teach you how to be patient in any situation by using irony, sarcasm, comedy or another world of feelings that might help you through it.
I can teach you how to cook, hand-wash clothes, iron, efficiently wash the dishes without spending the so needed water, predict intentions of other people and all sort of crazy stuff.

I can share my experiences of travelling especially in regards with cultures and sub-cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What I have learned in this life until now (not much but its something...)

I can teach portuguese, I can cook and help in shores! I am open to understand everything that is given to me, thats my goal always, to learn, to grow, to evolve.
