About Me

World citizen , born in Lisbon with roots in the Algarve, living in the Southwest Coast of Portugal where I run my company of Luggage Transfers along the Rota Vicentina.

Travelling is a way of being. Hiking and biking are the moving forces of all travels, holidays and leisure moments, every time I'm not working. But guess what? I love my work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In January 2024 I'm exploring Cinque Terre and Camino de Salento. Every January is time to go for a hike in Europe. This year I'll embrace the challenge of returning to Italy with the goal of learning some Italian, meet people and dive for 3 brief weeks on a fascinating and neighbouring culture. Let's see what happens.
