About Me

I'm a really adventurous person not afraid of taking the next step! I love to meet new people and bonding. People say that "kind" is my middle name.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to know more people and receive some tips where to go from people that actually know the city.

Interests

I like to go to the beach (yeh a little weird why I moved to Norway 😅), like to read, hike, dips on the sea, deep talks, play video games, go to the cinema, seeing sunsets.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I asked for a sabbatical license in November 2022 from my 9 year work in Portugal to go on an adventure in Norway. Where I found that snowboard is one of my biggest passions on earth :)

Now I quitted my job from Portugal and I'm looking for a different challenge!

I lived in 3 different places in Norway: Trysil, Bergen and Trondheim. Loved the experience but now I need to experience the opposite side of society and be more in contact with people that are happy with less.

I went to Brasil for 5 months, with just one way ticket and I met wonderful people along the way. I did volunteering to keep my self more in the continent. My first stop was Salvador 🇧🇷 Was a life time experience, never felt so loved.

After the trip I went back to Norway but after experiencing Brasil I felt that Norway wasn’t the place anymore so I came back to Portugal and I’m here trying to understand what’s my next step.
