About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling in Asia. (secondary objective: find the best noodle soup in the world)

ABOUT ME

I'm from Portugal, where I lived until 2007. By then I moved to Bournemouth, England to study Computer Animation and Visual Effects. After that I spent some time in Buenos Aires and moved to London to work in Visual Effects for cinema. I've worked in several films.

I did some trips for relatively short periods of time, but in March 2013 I quit my job to travel in Asia, where I've been until now. I've started in Vietnam, then Japan, South Korea and China. Let's see where I will go next.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never hosted nor coutch-surfed so far, but I've attended to some meetings here and there during my travels and at home. It is a great way to meet the people who live in the places I travel to.

Interests

People, Travel, Philosophy, Science, Music, Cinema (both watching and making it), Astronomy (not Astrology!), Party and Mongooses (OK... I'm not THAT keen on mongooses to be honest...)
