I'm a simple guy who likes the simple pleasures in life. I love the Nature and all that this world has to give, probably it's from there that comes my passion for traveling.

My family is from a really small village in Serra da Estrela (biggest mountain area in Portugal) but I was born and raised in Lisbon. For that reason I'm like a mix of the 2 "worlds" - I like to live in the city, love the people and all that you can learn and enjoy in this beautiful mess, but I'm also in love with the countryside and always ready for an escape trough the woods. I wouldn't have any problems to live for an year in a cabin in the middle of a forest, I would just need to have my girlfriend, my 2 dogs and the cat with me.

I like to believe in the goodness of all beings and that we all have our mission in this world. In the end we're all sailors of the same boat, the Earth.

At last it's important for me to say that I´m a vegan. That means that I do my best to respect all beings and be conscious about my acts and what they will reproduce in others. I don't eat anything that once had a life or use them for my own benefit. Also tried to keep my footprint at the lowest that I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of music, since reggae to metal. As I use to say, I don't like a especifically kind of music, I like music in general when it's good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At the end of my Erasmus in Poland I returned home by hitchhiking. From Krakow to Lisbon, more than 4.000km passing by 10 countries. It was an experience that I'll never forget!
