Hey! I'm João. I'm 19 and I'm studying Bioengineering in Porto, Portugal. I love travelling, taking photos and making friends. Every time I find a hole in my calendar I pack my bags and go get to know new cultures!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll be travelling with low budget during one month in several countries across Central Europe. I'm sure Couchsurfing will be the best way to get to know people and have a great Summer!

Music, Movies, and Books

I think I like almost all kinds of music. If I had to name some artists, I would say that my favourite ones are: Queen, Led Zeppelin, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Arctic Monkeys, Cage the Elephant, Capitão Fausto, Ornatos Violeta, Linda Martini, Twenty One Pilots, The Black Keys, Tame Impala and so many others I can't remember!
Regarding movies, my favourite one is La Vie Est Belle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been 1 month working in the Swiss Alps, picking fruit. I met people from different countries and had the opportunity to get to know their cultures. Though it was quite exhausting, the landscape was outstanding - it was more like a spiritual retreat! An amazing experience!
