Hi I’m an architect from Portugal and I took this year off to travel in India. I’m am trying to change my professional path into being more involved in community projects and less in architecture, thinking on going back to school next year and do a masters in project leading of cooperation for development projects. I am also trying to do some volunteer work in that area this year.

I am a slow travel who enjoys more meeting people than seeing tourist things. I take my time in each place so I have a bit sense of living there.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I want to travel in a way I can really experience the local culture and I find the only way is through people and couchsurfing is an amazing way to meet new people.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I lived in Mozambique for four years. A part off that time me and some friends started an ngo and tried to build a community school but in the end the project didn’t go through.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can cook veggie meals (although I’m not full vegetarian). I want to learn Hindi. I can share good energy!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can share my experiences in architecture and community projects! I can also share my knowledge about how to make natural homemade products (like soap, deodorant, toothpaste, etc)
