I am traveling until the 23rd of July. Currently, I am in Portugal. I am relatively new to Couchsurfing and I would like to share the experience. Friends and family would describe me as: intelligent, observant, thoughtful, kind, compassionate, clean, considerate, knowledgable. I have many other traits and qualities. I have many pictures from my travels if you'd like to view them.
