Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Everyone has different skills. I am a listener, observer, I'm also good in doing creative stuff, like documentary films, photography and in general technical things. I'm interested in new approaches and i'm trying to discover and learn new things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very positive until now...Can compare it to all my hitchhike experiences. Every time you meet new persons, step into another life. I love it, because the ability to learn from others is great. If i can open someone's mind with new idea's, it makes me happy. With respect and tolerance...

Interests

I'm organizing a collaborative filmfestival in Portugal. Usually it happens once a year in the summer.

The last film I did was a travel with an old school bus from Portugal through Spain, Morrocco, the Western Sahara, Mauritania, the Senegal to Guinea-Bissau. And another one about the city of Maputo and their collective Memories.
