ATTENTION CRAZY STORY

. 9 months ago I decided to take a break from my "real life" and start living my "unreal life".
So I left my country with 100 euros with the goal of going around the world or just see how far I could go with 100 euros. And now I'm at 16000km from my house and I travelled in 19th different countries.
I said "unreal" because a lot of people thinks that's impossible to do something like this. For that I say nothing is impossible if you believe on it.

Don't worry I'm not a homeless. I always find a way to make enough money. Since busking in the streets of Europe with my awesome ukulele, several part time jobs/ small duration jobs a lot of volunteering and I even act in a movie as an extra.

Current mission:
After a lot of time metting a lot of people and a lot of different places. I want to stay for longer in paradise. So I found a way to stay 6 months in Bali, drinking coconut juice and surfing 😂😇
But first I need to deal with the final details before I move completely to Bali.
So let's say that I will take a short "power nap" in Bali before chasing my ultimate goal: go around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling around the world hitchhiking with a friend , without money!!! We just wanna know different people and prove that you don't need a lot of money to travel

Interests

I love beach, I never get tired.
I use to work as a life guard in Portugal, 10h on the beach looking at the ocean and the nice Portuguese girls. 😂
And I never get tired, ocean is my big passion. I never get tired!

I love music. I have a ukulele always ready to give some music.

I like to party. But most of the time I prefer hangout around a fire with a nice group of people.
