ABOUT ME

What can I say? Passionate, out-going, very talkative when I feel like it, creative, active, curious, sociable, tolerant, patient, optimistic, adaptable, clean, responsible, dedicated and I have a very soft spot for the Japanese culture. Don't ask me why, it just is like that. I do have a few mottos I live by like "Carpe diem" or "Whatever has to happen will happen". I don't like to rush through things.

This is basically it. I'm not going to say all too much about me here. If you wanna know something you can always ask me. :)

PHILOSOPHY

- "Carpe Diem";
- "Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway" - Elbert Hubbard;
- If you don't fight for things in your life, you simply don't deserve them;
- Whatever has to happen will happen;
- "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss
- "Pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever" - LesMills

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to go to as many CS meetings in Stockholm as possible;

And I can always show you around some and go for a coffee :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met some CSerfs in Stockholm and did some sightseeing with them. It was fun and I am looking forward in showing the amazing Scandinavian capital to other CSourfers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stockholm, Sweden - Saw the Northern lights; being able to be in touch with Nature like no place else; seeing reindeers up close when I look outside my window.

Helsinki, Finland - walking on the frozen Baltic Sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to teach about Portuguese culture and everything else I know and you would like have explained.

About learning, I am a very curious person. So if I happen to ask [stupid] questions don't mind, that's just how I am.

And I absolutely love to share stories and experiences! I love to communicate with people.
