Medical graduate looking for a job and figuring out where to live next.

Loving cinema and photography (I drop some stuff here: https://www.instagr.am/henriquetguedes), I always try to get out of the places I know and get to roam new cities and landscapes. Loving to understand people, I keep getting thrilled with making new acquaintances and sharing ideas and stories with other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting interesting people, really. Old and longer explanation ensues:

Loving to travel + favouring the locals' insight of a place = Couchsurfing, right? Being sure that it does, I am looking for low budget solutions for getting to know both the touristy and the lesser known places of a city or village while meeting interesting people. Eventually I'm able to host some people, trying to give something back in this great way of travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Lots to say around here.
-Music: the 60s/70s, then the 90s, then the 10s, so right now pretty much any standard jukebox will please me. More than the bands I know already, my best choice is to get to know new ones

-Movies: just because it's an enormous list with all kinds of things, maybe it's a good conversation starter :P

-Books: Kafka and Orwell to keep the world in check, Luís Sepúlveda and Eça de Queiroz to make it shine and look worthwhile.

-Other reads: small pieces on psychology, sociology and politics in magazines like The Atlantic, AEON, Quartz make my day. Every day. Like the hard procrastination-level of making my day.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good humour and wannabe witty conversations, plus helping with as much as I can. Some people commend my risotto, but I can cook some other stuff too, really!
Interest in pretty much everything, mainly if unrelated to Medicine (I can share some tiny bit of medical knowledge; much tinier than what I'd like, though)
