About Me
ABOUT ME
I was born in Viana Do Castel in Portugal, I'm from a little town called Melgaço. I spent all my life in Switzerland, in the french alps. I live in Val de Bagnes in Valais.
After my compulsory school, I studied architecture. I have been working as an architectural draftsman for a couple of years.
I spent few months studying English in New Zealand. That was the best and the worst thing in my life. After being there and seeing lots of different cultures and landscapes, another man went back home.
I want to travel the world. See so many things! That's what I'm up to know...
PHILOSOPHY
... Live free ...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Everyone who hosted me is more than welcome to my home... I love spend time talking about your travels, listening to the buddy on my couch or the one hosting me!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
You meet people from the place you're visiting. It's much better than books or informations centers...
Interests
I practice a lot of ski and telemark during winter. As soon as our white gold leaves, I get my mountain bike out of the garage and a rope for a climbing day. As soon as I see water, my favorite sport is diving, thinking about nothing, just enjoy the quiet...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In 2009, study english was a challenge. I arrived in New Zealand with no bases, my bible was a dictionary.
My first time in Center America was awesome. I was already used to travel but it was completely new concerning culture. More poor people, less money, not as comfortable as other countries I have been to.
