Hi! I’m a friendly 30-year-old Portuguese guy, goofy and always looking for adventures with locals. I work as a programmer , but whenever I have free time, I try to travel and discover new places, cultures, and people. I’m easygoing, open-minded, and love sharing stories over a good meal or drink. (By the way, I’m the little guy with glasses in the black T-shirt 🙂).

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I’m was new to Couchsurfing, and I saw it as an opportunity to live a more authentic travel experience. I don’t just want to see the “tourist spots” — I’m genuinely interested in local routines, food, music, traditions, jobs, politics, dance, and the hidden charms of villages and cities that only locals can show. A good friend recommended Couchsurfing to me, and it feels like the perfect match for the kind of travel I’m looking for.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I haven’t (yet!) jumped off cliffs, eaten spiders, or climbed mountains… but you can challenge me and see how it goes 😅 I’m more of a go-with-the-moment kind of person, always open to trying something new.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share my knowledge of Portuguese wine culture. I’d love to learn how to cook local dishes wherever I go. I enjoy exchanging personal stories and experiences.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Teach some Portuguese cuisine and language. Share my positive energy and curiosity. A genuine interest in learning about you and your city.
