Hello!

I'm Maria, a Portuguese woman dreaming of travelling the world since a child. If you like to talk, discuss deep topics such existencial questions, politics, culture differences we will get along well. The good news is that I also just love to hear travel stories and be inspired for my next adventures.
I have a bubbly personality so you'll see me smile a lot, talk and even dance if the music is good.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Fun fact: I created my Couchsurfing account when I was 16 because I was obsessed with my Interrail trip (still to happen). But the reason are the same: meet interesting open to welcome me and therefore my culture and personality; have a direct access to other country's culture through their natives (forget the touristic spots, tell me your favourite spot from your childhood) and, of course, save some money as a good saver that I was thought to be.

音乐、电影和书籍

I'm a Gemini so it's hard to pick my favourites but for the movie I would say Forrest Gump and for the music Bohemian Rapsody or any Queen's songs.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I'm that kind of people that love to do things for others (specially food) as an appreciation gesture. So here's the things I can do for you:

- Tell you nice (and true) things about yourself that you're not used to hear. I'm definitely gonna compliment your shirt in the middle of the street even if I don't know you.

-Share about Portuguese culture: the places to visit, what to do, must-eat plates and sweets, show some Portuguese music as Fado and Pimba

-Teach you Portuguese: the basics like how to say hello, where's the bathroom, one beer please, and thank you! :D

-Cook you a Portuguese or vegetarian meal! Believe me, you'll love cod, we found 101 ways of cooking it

-During a longer stay I would love to help you, if it's the case, with my marketing skills, specially content creation for social media
