About Me

Just a guy trying find is place in the world :)

I love sports, music, and technology.
I´m taking my degree in IT. But primarily at this moment in my life, I want to travel, explore, so I´m not working just traveling and studying, and meeting new people.
The last five years were to intense in work.

I live in Porto, near the Douro river, in a flat, that is in an amazing condo, I have a cat, called Pipa, I will post some pics. :)
Porto is one of the most touristic cities in Europe at a moment, we have a great city a lot to see, and of course I will host people that will host me also.

There are not a lot of demands from my pat, just that be nice and careful about my things.
You are welcome to use all the infrastructure, we have football fields one with grass and another without, tennis courts, running track, exercise machines , or just walk and watching the nature. I just want you to enjoy.
You can take breakfast, cook, essentially feel at home in my home, I enjoy talking to people, and I talk a bit, but I love people that talk more than I.
Tolerance is the word here :) and enjoy and connect with cultures.

Hey I love to eat, I will just be delighted if I taste typical food from other country.
And of course , don´t forget Pipa is the lady of the house :)you ave to be really nice to her, but she will certainly will even nicer to you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new country´s, and new people, couch surfing was not an option until now, but I´m wiling to try out, and I hope to have the privilege of meeting interesting people on the way, different cultures.

Interests

I´m interested in sports, any kind of sports, specially water sports. At the moment, I swim, surf, cycling, and run.
I´m interested in electronics, robotics to be more precise, I also program, and know a bit of network, and server administration, so basically I´m an IT guy, love everything that has to do with tech. Maybe by consequence, I´m also a DIY guy, I love doing things by myself, love the learning during the process.
I ´m developing interest about astronomy, I´m about to buy my first telescope for observation, and i´m really exited with the idea of been able to see galaxy´s, or the surface of the moon, Saturn, I find it amazing. I´m also interested about cooking, love to cook , and love Portuguese gastronomy .
