Made in Portugal, the World is currently my home.

Travel, discover, unravel!

I'm a passionate traveler, a curious person by nature and someone who enjoys a good conversation! Cinema is one of my greatest passions and I like to discover movies coming from different countries/directors. Love hiking in the nature or wandering through the bustling streets of a city. I think it´s important to always see the positive side of things in life, so that you can always learn even from the not so good experiences.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

Meeting your hosts or surfers is more than just staying with someone for accommodation, it's all about connecting with people from different backgrounds and mindsets. Through this community many stories are told, laughs shared, skills exchanged and friendships born.

Until now I haven't hosted many people because I never had my own flat, but as soon as I get my own place I will be happy to do so!

Insegna, impara, condividi

Every single one of us has got something to teach and learn, it's all about being open to share our experiences through life.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

To my hosts I can maybe teach some Portuguese or Spanish languages, share my adventures and stories, try to cook something from my country and whatever else that comes along the way.
