About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See every ocean from every part of the globe

ABOUT ME

Hi there couch surfers!

I have an incredible urge to travel. I've been to NZ, Samoa- I travelled in London Portugal Spain Italy and In 2014 and 2016. I spent some amazing time in Ibiza and in kohphangan in Thailand both in the more shanti spiritual parts of both the islands not the party side.

I was just in Egypt where I went on a spiritual quest for 2 weeks along the nile visiting all the temples and then got to spend a week on the Red Sea in Dahab.

I stopped one night in KL to eat durian and rest. And was hosted by a beautiful family from CS.

Then I spent a short amount of time in SF & a long stint in northern California with a 6 day stop over in London.

Drove from northern Cali to mexico, lived in Peru for 8months

********Currently*********

In FNQ Kuranda

Looking for a travel buddy as I am carless as of tomorrow.

My dream is to travel the world and learn of the different spiritual and healing practices of native and ancient cultures.

I would love to be able to have the freedom to live in a number of countries and learn the language whilst I am there! My last name is Portuguese but my dad was born in Singapore and my mum was born in Scotland! I'd like to learn Spanish more, and the Arabic language is so beautiful too!

PHILOSOPHY

These quotes I believe describe my philosophical views :)

"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?"
-- John Lennon

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”
--Albert Camus

"Contrary to what they tell you, you are not a limited material being"
--Amit Goswami, Ph.D. Theoretical Quantum Physicist

"The intuitive mind is a sacred gift & the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honours the servant & has forgotten the gift" - Albert Einstein

"Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for it to kill your enemy."
-- Nelson Mandela

"Having access to that formless realm is truly liberating. It frees you from bondage to form and identification with form. It is life in its undifferentiated state prior to its fragmentation into multiplicity. We may call it the Unmanifested, the invisible Source of all things, the Being within all beings. It is a realm of deep stillness and peace, but also of joy and intense aliveness. Whenever you are present, you become "transparent" to some extent to the light, the pure consciousness that emanates from this Source. You also realize that the light is not separate from who you are but constitutes your very essence."
--Eckhart Tolle

“When I was five years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down '‘happy’'. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, & I told them they didn’t understand life.”
-–John Lennon

"For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love."
Pythagoras, mathematician

"The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men."
Leonardo da Vinci, artist and scientist

"Our task must be to free ourselves . . . by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty."
"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances of survival for life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet."
Albert Einstein, physicist, Nobel Prize 1921

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
"To my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being."
Mahatma Gandhi, statesman and philosopher

"In their behavior toward creatures, all men are Nazis. Human beings see oppression vividly when they're the victims. Otherwise they victimize blindly and without a thought."
Isaac Bashevis Singer, author, Nobel Prize 1978

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted so many couch surfers!

I have hosted people directly through the website, and others by association, and also people that just need a place to crash (even if they're not from another country!) I habe occasionally in the past gone to couch surfing gatherings - love meeting new people. I've also participated in hosting a few couch surfers with my house mate MJ.
