Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
As cheasy as it may sound, I am 100% dedicated to being happy.
ABOUT ME
I am that person in the group that just doesn't care where we are going, as long as we are together! As I have a very busy work life, when I am traveling I just want to enjoy myself, relax and have new experiences, after all we only live once.
PHILOSOPHY
Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have received some guests at my house in portugal but they were "officially" hosted by my sister.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have had 3 wonderful couchsurfing experiences, hosted by the most fun and lovely people. It changed the whole traveling experience by getting to know fantastic places that I would have never visited unless these fantastic hosts had taken me there. Most importantly, I met wonderful people who have so many stories to tell and with whom I learned so much. I have become addicted to couchsurfing and will start hosting as soon as I have my own place.
Interests
I have painted since I was little and, even though I have never fully dedicated myself to art because of my studies, I am very passionate about it and always like to explore the artistic scene of every place I visit.
I have also been learning photography and I have become more and more addicted to it. I don't go anywhere without my camera.
Last but not least, like any other couchsurfer, I absolutely love to travel.

Music, Movies, and Books
My taste in music is very diverse, from indie rock, to folk, jazz and country music, I can listen to almost anything. Pink floyd, Libertines, kaiser chiefs, kasabian, strokes, arctic monkeys, foals, beirut, civil wars, edward sharp and magnetic zeros, angus and julia stone, feist, kings of convenience, milky chance, stereophonics, yo la tengo, johny cash, simon and garfunkle, katie melua.... I could go forever.
With movies is almost the same as in music, I am unable to pick one type of movie, let alone one single movie. I enjoy a good classic (ex rear window), as well as the extravagant - tarantino, woody allen, cohen brothers... A cheasy movie wil go well at the appropriate time (like a rainy sunday)- top gun, dirty dancing. Give me a well directed movie, good plot and photography and I will enjoy even the most unrealistic sci-fi.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have bungee jumped!
