« Je sais que les hommes sont des enfants qui chassent leur désespoir par la colère, leur peur dans l’amour ; au vide, ils répondent en construisant des châteaux et des temples. Ils s’accrochent à des récits, ils les poussent devant eux comme des étendards ; chacun fait sienne une histoire pour se rattacher à la foule qui la partage. On les conquiert en leur parlant de batailles, de rois, d’éléphants et d’êtres merveilleux ; en leur racontant le bonheur qu’il y aura au-delà de la mort, la lumière vive qui a présidé à leur naissance, les anges qui leur tournent autour, les démons qui les menacent, et l’amour, l’amour, cette promesse d’oubli et de satiété. »

Hi! I'm both french and portuguese, I was born in Lisbon and currently live... somewhere around the world!

I've been more active on couchsurfing since my internship in Belo Horizonte (Brazil), where I stayed for 4 months. It was an awesome occasion for me to go to couchsurfing meetings and meet great people!

In 2018 I quit my job and decided to leave Paris to travel around the world for a year, and then two years...
Was lucky enough to travel to Asia, Africa, USA, Australia and live in New Zealand for a whole year! All those experiences allowed me to meet great fellow couchsurfers!

Currently I'm back in Lisbon, my hometown, working as head of production for a contemporary dance company.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people from different countries, I love learning about other people's cultures and the concept of couchsurfing is perfect for me because it's based on sharing!
