About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Start my first CS experience this summer

ABOUT ME

This is ME, a very complicated gift wrapped in a very colorful and recyclable Christmas paper.
ME shelf is in a small and special section called Vila do Conde, in a little supermarket called Portugal.
ME is not an expensive or costly product.
ME can only be bought with friendship and loyalty.
ME have to be handled with care or it could break easily.

Any questions about ME send a message to the automatic answering service. Thanks for the atention. I am not a virus nor a giant ugly spam, so do not be afraid.

Now seriously.
I get easily tired of routine and I try whenever I can to do something that could give me a new and fresh "AHHH, it feels good to live". One of those things is traveling and meeting new people. I love to compare cultures, to absorb knowledge and learn to live with people different from me, both on cultural, social and ideological subjects.

I have a very distinctive sense of humor and I love to know different types of humors, whatever it may be sarcastic, black or colorful.

MY WRITING ENGLISH SUCKS, but I swear I understand everything you say. If I don't, Google will help me.

I know how to read, how to speak and I work very well with numbers.

I really really hate shallow individuals. If you're like this please consider my advice and push the red button on the top right side of your tiny little pinky HP screen.

I write music in my free times. If you ever meet me you'll probably be the target of one of my super lyrics :D

Chill Out is my middle name and Good Vibe is my homeland (sorry for this :D).

I will SURELY take you as a member of my family (just out of curiosity: I have 2 lovely parents and an even lovely(er) sister called Isabel, 4 years older than me) and I guarantee you'll feel like Home.

I'm absolutely not a stalker nor a porn addicted person. If I talk to you is ONLY because I think we have compatible personalities and we could really learn something (useful) with each other.

Anything you want to know, be free to ask.

PHILOSOPHY

We can all start an individual zeitgeist whenever we want, the problem is to make it reach the ones who really want to listen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a total beginner in this concept of CS, but I'm very interested by the idea and I'm totally willing to spread it as much as I can, all because I think this can really change the world gradually.

I'm afraid I may sound a little desperate, but CS is a F******G good project, and it's right the missing thing I needed in my life. I have a constant fear of letting my life walk through me without giving me the emotion, the thrill, the love, the friendship and the knowledge I ever wanted.

This things are avaiable in this project, in fact they are the core of CS, in my oppinion.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Unfortunately my international experience in CS is currently zero. In fact, I only knew about CS in 14/02/2011 (two days before this text was written) and I don't even know how to put fuel in this machine.
If you feel like helping please be free to do it :D

Despite not giving the donation I ask you to consider me as a respectful user.

Interests

* Music is the salvation. Music is our "Own Personal Jesus", the passion, the process, everything. Emotions in words surrounded by melody. Everytime I can I go to music festivals. My emotional peak is acomplished by sitting on my balcony and watch the sea, the moon on it, while I smoke my last Marlboro and listen to a peaceful, deepful song sang by my best friend (Ipod Touch 16Gb 1st Generation :D)

* People. People are the best interest ever.

* Working is GOOD, everybody should like this. It makes my next interest possible.

* Traveling. Of course.

* The sky and the sea. Fortunately I can feel both everyday.

* Photos

* Books. Cartoon, Science-Fiction, Drama and Historical oriented.

* Movies and other midia.

* Manga World: ONE PIECE

I love MATH. (Geek moment)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once swam in a big dark lake with a couple of friends in the middle of a circle of mountains in Bragança, Portugal.
I'm deadly afraid of dark waters and of the depth of that lake, and I stayed always next to our boat.
To make fun of me they speed up and let me behind in the middle of (I repeat...) a BIG DARK LAKE with unknown ugly creatures swimming under me.
Gladly I could win my fear and stayed for more than one hour floating with my belly up watching the sun as it desapears behind the mountains.
I felt a incredible feeling of liberty and smallness at the same time. I don't know if you've ever felt this before but I swear that despite this may sound uninteresting, to me it was massive.

There's a photo of this place in my "Where" album :D
