ABOUT ME

I am an ex-Erasmus in Vigo, Spain. I'm glad to have reached the other side of Europe and seen how it feels to live there. I cherish diversity and the possibility of choosing from various options. Travelling makes me happy and gives the feeling of freedom but also gives an opportunity of mutual exchange of good values with other people. That stays forever in one's heart

PHILOSOPHY

everyone should treat others the way they would like to be treated

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By sharing my personality and cultural background while travelling and hosting other people!

There is nothing I would like to do more in life than travelling. As a kid I used to look at the map of the world for hours and memorize all capitals :) Then I began memorizing foreign words to finally understand mentality of the British, Americans, Brazilians, the Portuguese, the Spanish...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience with couchsurfing took place before setting this account, while I was travelling through the north of Portugal with two friends. Seeing is believing, I would say. I would have never expected that complete strangers could become so close to our hearts. The experience taught me more than books ever could. I was then hosted several times in Portugal when hitch-hiking, it was an amazing time that will never be forgotten. I also have some positive experiences as a host for some very special individuals with whom I still keep in touch.
