About Me

NOTE: I live in Geeveston - small town south of Hobart (1h away). Please make sure you know this before applying.

ME -Fun, Happy and Easy going.

I moved from Portugal to Australia when i was 17 years old. A lifetime journey that i am still living and appreciating to the maximum.
Family and friends are at the top of my list.
I met my soulmate (Daniel - https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/daniel-cuttiford ). He is cute and makes me food all the time. I love him! He is special.
I have travelled, seen parts of the World i am so happy to know so many wonderful people.
Pachamama is my God.
I found my purpose in life😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and getting to know the authentic part of the county away from tourism and major chaos. I am interested in the culture and most importantly I want to meet some amazing people all over the World.

Interests

I am interested in:

Sustainability (to help the beautiful mother nature survive the future)
Mountains & Ocean (the most beautiful and natural landscapes with so much to offer)
People and Adventure (I love to meet and connect with people - by creating new memories and enjoy the moment)

I LOVE BEING SOCIAL - I can never have too many friends to hang out with, so if you are going to be around me you will too be my friend :D
