About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Chill out, keep learning, meet people and enjoooy travelling.

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from the island of Madeira island. My mother is from the north of Portugal (Santa Maria da Feira) and so i have some family around Porto. I came here to study for my degree in Engineering. In the meantime I finished the studies, worked abroad and travelled a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

Persue your dreams but always live the present and get the most out of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been part of couchsurfing for a few years and I have received over 120 people alas with many breaks in between. Most of the people I have received usually stay 2-3 nights and i'm not fond of people coming only one night as you basically don't really get to know eachother.

I haven't had any surf experiences myself, ironically, because when I travel I normally have friends to accomodate me already. I will definitely try it though in the future. Throughout this time I've been part of the couchsurfing community I have made some very good friends that I wish to visit :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to pretty much everything, i studied piano for many years. I can listen to classical, and then to electro/house to metal, depends on the mood.

Movies i also am very open minded, as long as it's good quality with good actors and a nice storyline.

Ever since I got myself an e-reader my reading has improved a lot. I like reading a good story or trying out new fields such as psychology.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well i could talk about cool things i've seen or done but probably the best experiences i ever had was one of the two: living and working in another country or escaping for 6 months just travelling.
