Hey guys!
My name is Pedro and I am from Lisbon. I graduated in Economics in 2017 and am currently working in the banking sector.
I am usually available in the week ends, I just have some issues keeping my eyes open for going out too late due to the high amount of working hours i do during the week.
Most of my free time i spend it in the gym or with my friends. I really enjoy going out. I enjoy flat parties , drinking beer in the street/bar and live music instead of going to clubs.
I enjoy smoking shisha/hookah aswell.
I really like animals (not only pets, i really have a lot of interest for different kind of animals).
I am a beer appreciator, I specially fall for Belgium and Scottish ones.
I love video games (maybe too much sometimes) and I listen many kind of Music styles, from Russian Romance Songs up till Death Metal, passing by minimal, house, techno, Italo, Hardbass and Psytrance and going through Irish, Hebrew and Celtic Folk, Pagan songs, Ska and Punk.
My cooking skills are above average i would say :) (special thanks to youtube).
I used to do karate for about half my life but I gave up, unfortunately, due to the difficulty i had combining classes and training.
I am quite straightforward and laugh with quite an ease.

PS : I do not live close to the center of Lisbon (you can see in my pictures the metro stations ,I live in the red circle but the blue circle indicates the central region of Lisbon) , but it's a chill place and with a lot of space (You may take some more time to reach the center of Lisbon and always by metro/bus)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I made my Erasmus in Budapest I started to want to travel and to connect with people from other countries in order to share some knowledge and histories , to make some friends and to get more international knowledge about other countries and cultures (not only saying "cheers" in every languages) and here goes why I want to make part of the couchsurfing comunity.
I hope someday i will be brave enough to start to hitchhike for long periods of time and Couchsurfing may be the best way to accomplish this goal :D
