Enseña, aprende, comparte

As a host:
I'll probably be working during the day (portuguese are not as lazy as you might have heard!) so for that most likely I will not join you while touring the city.
If you're planning to come over to Coimbra on a weekend it is likely that I won't be able to host you, since it's common that I spare my free time travelling around, but who knows (?), you might aswell try it and get lucky!
I would love to show you some of the portuguese gastronomy which is the best way to retain travelling memories.
If you're vegetarian or vegan I must tell you in advance that I also enjoy preparing veggie/vegan versions of traditional dishes and my creativity had never let me down!
My boyfriend João is into winemaking, craft beer, history and linguistics so he can provide you with lots of fun, curious and some really useful facts on this topics. For useless pieces of random info, call me! 🤭

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

As a guest:
I can share my joy and laughs!
I'm a pretty talkative person who's genuinely into getting to know people and their culture.
I love cooking and Portuguese gastronomy so if I have the chance would love to prepare a traditional dish (even in a veggie version!) for us to share.
I do search for specific hosts to stay in with as for I'm searching for true interactions and bonding with others, even though I know that most of the time people don't have much free time, but still, it all starts with a conection.
