About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet new people, host them and be their guest. :)

ABOUT ME

I am talkative, open-minded, relaxed, amiable, an optimist, a bit of a dreamer, very honest, creative, trying to be a well-organized and realistic person,
I try hard to beat stress with lots of laughter.
I think money is a means not a goal.
I can apologize but I have hard time letting people manipulate me.
I really enjoy meeting new people, it is exciting and fun to see how different people have something in common.
Just feel free to talk to me and see for yourself what kind of person I am! :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Be yourself, no matter what they say..."
(Sting, Englishman in New York)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am offering a host service and am looking forward to making friends with people on CS.
I am willing to show people around, if needed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A bit. I'm a beginner. :)

Interests

I'm quite a lot into thinking and reasoning,
I like languages - I'm studying English, had German at secondary school, know a bit of Norwegian, and Portuguese; had Spanish as a foreign language at the university; I am into linguistics, grammar, orthography, translation, ELT;
I can't live without music - used to play some instruments, like piano, synthesizer, pipe, and I'd really love to learn how to play an acoustic guitar;
used to sing - in a choir - was a mezzo soprano;
in my hart, there has always been a very special place for art, painting, sculpting;
I am interested in medicine, chemistry, nutritionism;
Herbs and plants facinate me;
I can't imagine a day without internet access, my mobile phone, computer and current technologies; I'd love to have a bunch of cool gadgets;
I try hard to be a well-informed citizen of the world, by constantly following science, internet, books, conspiracy theories, TV, radio, etc.
Last, but not the least, nonetheless, I'm a dreamer, and I know I'm not the only one! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to Norway once with my grammar school. I was in Narvik, which I consider to be the top of this world.
I saw many great things, met wonderful people and encountered a diverse culture.
Also, the nature and landscapes are breath-taking.
The people over there are very nice, despite the stereotype saying they're cold and reserved...
It was an amazing experience and a once in a life-time opportunity... :D
