About Me

I am a young student born in Portugal that grew up in England, that constantly travels around the world. I am fascinated by new cultures, I enjoy meeting new people with diferent views, culture and traditions, it fascinates me and it fullfills my personal desires. I am passionate abou languages and I find amazing how different sounds and writting mean the same thing but sounds completly diferent, this amazes me! I LOOOOOVEEE food! Food is my favourite, I love trying new foods! I enjoy museums and CULTURE AND HISTORY! I cannot emphasize enough, my love for history and culture, and now that I have started traveling, this passion is growing and growing more. I have lived in Spain for 3 summers in a row, and then moved to Los Angeles for 6 months, and 3 months in Paris, and now I'm in Asia, I am super exited! I am planning to visit the follow: Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, chengdu china and Hong Kong.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I am a solo traveller, and I find myself sometimes to meet other tourists, which is amazing, but many times I do not learn nothing about the culture or the attractions around. I love meeting and making friends with locals because I get a true experience of the country history, tradition and views. It is my first time on couchsurfing, and I have heard mixed reviews about it, but I am ready to give it a go, to obtain the true experience, however to feel safe I would love for my hosts AND surfers to communicate with me get to knoww eachother before we agree to stay! Also, I'd love to meet a host and surfers that enjoys to go for a walk, maybe a drink to see the city :)

I am currently travelling so I can't host until October, but please feel free to message after that date if I'm available I'll host you! Plus at the moment I am only accepting male guests with a lot of reviews due to previous not so good experiences as a young woman I have to protect myself!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
