I'm Ivan Barbeira from Aveiro, Portugal. I'm 20 years old and currently studying Anthropology in Coimbra, Portugal.
I can't define myself, but travel is a good way to get perspective of it, since it makes you evaluate some of the things that in your routine you've never considered. I don't think I'll ever find an answer to who I am, but the harsh and beautiful part of that quest is the quest itself; and that I'm more than pleased to share and discuss.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The simplest reason is of course why not?
We travel everyday on a daily basis. Alone, with friends, with strangers. And we ignore the beauty lying around us. In a trip though we do pay attention to those details but we can't stroke every little one of them in whatever mysterious place we're at. So what better way than having a local stranger, future friend to show it out to you? And when that stranger appears at your town, you will pay attention to the details you ignore everyday.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music can go from Jazz to Trap, from Synthpunk to garage rock, from Fado Popular to Brazilian Funk, from Indie rock to House music. Mood Swings have a big part on it.

Movies: I'm a Softie just that. No trilogies or wtv.

Books: Fangirl, The Catcher in the Rye, GoT, Bros Karamazov, Stoner.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So subjective that I can't even grasp an ideia of a memorable thing to point out.

Teach, Learn, Share

Im studying how humans connect, how humans interact, how humans live, how humans are. As far as I'm concern I know nothing about the world, but I'm here to learn, and in the process maybe share to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A fun time and a desire to learn, hear and experience. Humor it depends a lot on the context, fun facts depends on what you might enjoy. But well at least I'm trying, that counts for something I hope.
