About Me

(If you are searching for a host, please read the My Home section.)

I define myself as imaginative, open-minded, reflective, honest and curious. My curiosity makes me be constantly trying to learn new things and improving myself, as I think it is through improving ourselves that we get the most out of life. I prefer novelty over stability and I usually focus on hidden meanings and future possibilities. Small talk isn’t my strong suit, as I prefer deep conversations and connections.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is an excellent way of knowing inspiring, thoughtful and interesting people from all around the world. Meeting all those people has been an incredibly rewarding experience. It has been an excellent way to practice and improve my English, as well.

Interests

I love movies, so the cinema is a place where I like to go regularly. I like going out at night, preferably to not very crowded places. After, if I come back in the right time, my house allows me to see the sunrise on the roof, and that is one of the things I like the most in it.

I like football and playing foosball, eight-ball, board games like Monopoly, Party and Co., checkers or quizzes, card games like sueca and hearts. Do you want to challenge me? Go for it.

I feel the need to take care of myself. Working out in the gym is a must, and despite Coimbra not being the best place to ride a bike, there are some parks in which I like to do it. I have two bikes at home, so I can ride with one guest through nice places in the city.

Nutrition is something that interests me a lot and I like to discover new foods that I can introduce into my diet. If you have any suggestion or know how to cook something from your country or that you just like a lot, we can cook that.

Human behaviour is something that fascinates me. I do volunteering in the International Amnesty Coimbra's local group. If you are my guest on the right day, you can even participate in one of our events.

I love sunny early mornings and warm summer evenings. I love travelling. I love how a landscape can be breathtaking and the astonishing architecture of some cities.

In front of my house, there is a bakery that makes the best pastel de nata of the country. It's not my opinion, it is the one from two Polish experts.

The trip I made to Bulgaria is unforgettable.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you something you want to learn about what I described above.

I would like to learn about English, dancing, cinematography and photography, for example. But more important than anything, try to impress me. Show me something new. Tell me the best story of your life. Be memorable.
