ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet and shy guy. I study Portuguese poetry on my Masters course. I write sometimes. I like beaches and beer, good movies and the couch of my house. I suspect that these descriptions tell us little about ourselves. I recommend boleros, though. I guess they describe me better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My journey through southern Spain would not have been financially possible without the CS hosts. And that's not all: the trip would not have half of its fullness without the people I met, who not only opened their homes, but also shared their life experiences, their unique look at the cities and, above all, their friendship that will last
beyond that short stay.
