About Me

Hi! :) I´m an 18 year old student of political sciences and internacional relations who are searching for new and good experiences around the world. Traveling means a lot to me, because it gives me the chance to learn alaways something new, above all new cultures, people, and also the incentive to learn new languages. From the (still small) travel experience i have, i believe that is possible to add a lot to my personal experience through this method, so i count on Couchsurfing to help me.
More about me? Maybe a little shy person, which doesn't stop me from loving making friends, especially from other countries. I don't like to stay always on the same place, which also justifies my love for travel. Always with an analogue camera, I often try to distance myself from the big cities, in order to also discover the beauty of the natural corners. About my eating habits, i'm pesco-vegetarian.

I'm on couchsurfing in order to start my life as a traveller in an easier way.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Portuguese Music, Bossa Nova, Jazz, Indie Rock, Alternative,.. (or maybe i can sum up my musical taste in Mac de Marco and Tame Impala :D )

Books: reading is actually one of my favorite hobbies. So about my reading likes... i love books related to philosophy, i love reading Franz Kafka and Albert Camus, as well as Haruki Murakami and George Orwell (author of which i highlight '1984', one of my favorite books). I also love portuguese literature, especially José Saramago, portuguese nobel prize for literature in 1998, Eça de Queirós, Afonso Cruz and Fernando Pessoa (especially his heteronym Álvaro de Campos)
