About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explorer

ABOUT ME

I am passionate about learning new languages and experiencing new cultures, so travelling for me is a must.

A few words that describe me:
Photography. Chocolate. Rainy days. Sunny days. So so days. Sightseeing. Music. (Free) concerts. Dancing. Singing. Ecology. Vegetarianism. Reading (lots of) books. Videogames. Hippie peace and love philosophy. Baking. The East. The wild. Lilies. Ice cream.

Yup. Pretty much ice cream x3

PHILOSOPHY

"What matters is the journey, not the destination".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed and participated in some activities done in my town through CS. So far, all the experiences were great!! CS has restored my faith in humanity *.*

Interests

One of my major interests is music, not only listening but also creating, since I am a singer and a piano and bass guitar player (kind of a beginner in this). Putting that aside, I love reading and taking long walks, exploring the city with the company of my camera :)
Asian culture interests me greatly, so I've started learning Japanese. My trip to Hong Kong just confirmed the eastern flare in me =P
Also, I'm trying to gradually become a vegetarian. It's been much easier since I have started living on my own =D

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have walked barefoot in the streets of Hong Kong...
And I slept at airports and train stations...
Did a roadtrip through Ireland and slept in the car throughout, whether city or rural area...
A girl's gotta do, what a girl's gotta do!

Teach, Learn, Share

Did you know that Portugal's national dish is cod, and we get that from Norway? O.o
