I'm a new joiner on Couchsurfing, still learning it's ways. A cinema, book and music enthusiast. A master's degree student, currently working on my master's project - a documentary (ask me about it). Reserved, observer, curious, analytical, funny, intelectual, patient and thoughtful are my main personality traits.

I like homey environment, and I surround myself with things that relate to my childhood and my home in Madeira island: sounds (music mainly), smells, textures.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm a late traveler, beginning my tours around the world. The goal is twice a year and my first stop is Paris. On the way I'm interested in who and what I will find.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I enjoy cooking for other people, so it'll happen that I may buy ingredients and cook. I like sharing a bottle of wine, music and conversation at the same time.

I like sharing my movie knowledge, so some conversations might head that way, while I talk passionately about movies and get lost in my enthusiasm.
