Hi there! :D
I'm Ivo, a friendly guy from Portugal who'd love to explore the world and meet new people!
I'm 30, and I grew up some courage and decided to quit my job and spend some months on a trip around Australia, meeting new places, getting a real look of a different culture and meeting people. And that's only the start, I hope :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because some friends told me this network of people with travel interests is super cool, and I'd like to be a small part of it. Now by travelling and having experiences with, hopefully, lots of members and future friends, who later I'll be grateful to see again and shelter them the very same way 😀

Interests

I like new experiences so just about anything would be nice :)
I like all genres of music, movies, recently got it juggling - it's been +/- a year and I can juggle 4 balls :D :D - I'm also interested in playing any instruments, learning new things...
I also try to find time to do some yoga and/or meditation. 🙏 ☺️

Music, Movies, and Books

Classic, Fado, comercial, house, bossa nova, Rock, hip hop, country, blue grass, chill, r&b, latina, trance, everything.

I've not read many books, but I'm now changing that. ☺️ Currently reading 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell.

And I love tv shows.
From Lost, prison break, fringe, chuck and john doe to breaking bad, game of thrones and westworld :D
Not leaving the comedies like big bang theory, modern family, silicon valley (makes sense right? :p) and Rick and morty.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done sky and snowboard once in Sierra Nevada! It was awesome! I'd like to do it some time again or even try other sports like rock climbing, slide, etc. I'll take suggestions :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a software developer so I can teach specific things about technology and talk about anything tech and related :D
I have random interests like salsa dancing, juggling, djembe or learning/practising languages.
And others like yoga, meditation, learning about cultural differences and differences experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can always offer a smile and positiveness to be around. Which i think it's always welcome :D
Aside from that, doing dishes, helping around, sharing experiences and interests...
Pretty much everything you need, i think. :)
