About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eat every possible type of food (and drink!). To meet all sorts and have crazy adventures.

ABOUT ME

I'm a PhD student, building microscope technologies to study HIV. I also get to use lego for my project! Science is an all consuming activity so CouchSurfing is a great way to see new places and meet all sorts of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted when I was in Lisbon and a little bit since I'm here in London. I used to love showing off Lisbon and now I hope to use CouchSurfing to explore London with new people as well as take advantage of all the cheap travel available from London!

Unfortunately, Science is cruel and takes alot of my time. I usually try to accept only people who want to do stuff, hangout and mostly during the weekend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've mosly only hosted, but plan on visiting many more places while in London.

Interests

Too many things to list properly, but I try to know my music, movies, history, science, politics, food and drink, but mostly finding new things, whatever that may be.

Related to couchsurfing I particularly enjoy learning what little I can pick up of different languages and trying to pick up how they relate to each other!

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't do favourites, what I like now is different from what I liked 10 years ago.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived jumping out of a plane.
I'm afraid of heights.
