Portuguese-Canadian, currently living on Vancouver Island, studying anthropology and the human experience, and exploring as often as I can. I plan to travel frequently and want to learn from the experiences of others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share in the experiences and travels of other like minded, transient individuals, and to learn more about this incredible world we live in. I believe in paying it forward and doing as much as I can for others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy all music! Classic to contemporary, jazz to rock, anything I haven't heard intrigues me! Sci-fi, fantasy, and the classics are my go to for movies and books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At this point in my brief time on this planet, one amazing thing I can lay claim to is having the opportunity to swim with wild dolphins in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of the Archipelago of the Azores. No swimming pools or hand-holding guides. Just a boat, a snorkel mask, some wild dolphins, and thousands of miles of ocean all around. It was an incredible experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really into baking and have some pretty wicked no-recipe recipes for bread related food deliciousness. We can make some awesome stuff together.

I'd love to learn more about biology and the natural world, animals, plants, etc. Any interesting facts are welcomed and appreciated.

I want to share my passion for exploration, and show off all the things I love about Vancouver Island.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know quite a few places around the area for some amazing nature hikes and a few tips for things to do in Nanaimo and the West Coast.
I have a doggo who loves attention and new friends.
