About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Conquer the World! lol :P Well... surviving just takes most of my time! lol Hoping to realize that the world is smaller than I think, with the help of CS2!

ABOUT ME

I love the company of good music and good food, served with a ever better wine.
Love playing all sorts games... mainly Poker, with some friends @ my place.
Generally I don't enjoy much talking about myself... i'd rather leave that to others. :P I'm an open book!!!... most of the times! =) Host me or surf my couch and you´ll see!

PHILOSOPHY

"Carpe Diem" & "Carpe Noctem". lol
I really don't have one... Or, i have many if you prefer. It's a work in progress... but hey, let's go somewhere , have a couple of drinks, and i would definitely like to hear yours, and maybe discover mine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been a couchsurfer and host ever since i remeber, with family and friends. I haven't had the chance to do it through CS yet, although I'm hoping this will change pretty soon :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still a newbie @ CS2 (only hosted so far). However, i'm pretty anxious to, once i have the time & opportunity (& the money), start benefiting from it's full potential! =) Because getting to know a city, or country with the help of a local cannot be compared to even the best guide book!
All the people I hosted, so far, were incredible. Can't wait to start CouchSurfing around...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being born, might just have been my major accomplishment so far! lol :P Now talking seriously... they are far too many, i'm sure. Or maybe i just tend to find ordinary things to be extraordinary! :P

Teach, Learn, Share

Would like to learn/teach as much as possible... no matter what!
Can definitely share, how to see life from a different angle (my angle), & how to find the most interesting way to live life (maybe your way).
I can introduce you to the Portuguese cuisine, site seeing, incredible stories and a great group of friends placed all over Portugal.
