Hi, I'm Eva, I'm 28 years old and I'm Portuguese.

I studied cinema back in Portugal and got a bachelor in film editing, studied illustration / graphic design in the UK and got a BA, went back to Portugal and did a post-graduation in illustration, worked in completely unrelated fields during a while, did a course on graphic design, lived in Amsterdam for half a year and did an internship there and now I'm back home trying to go full freelancer and live from what I love!

I'm a pretty calm person (too calm perhaps, I blame it on low blood pressure) but love to have a laugh and just making sure everyone is having a good time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people from around the world, to travel in a new cheaper way and, above all, to make friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to India was the first time I traveled "by myself". I watched the sunset in the Little Rann of Kutch and ran across the desert when it was dark until my group was just a little distant light. I couldn't hear anything or see anything around me. I laid there for a while and just watched the starry sky for a while. It was a beautiful experience which I will never ever forget.

What I Can Share with Hosts

It's currently impossible for me to share my place, but I'm more than happy to show you around Lisbon, have a coffee or help you with anything else you might need!
